In Temple--this whole area has been? getting cold, slow rain for
several days, and we're supposed to get some more. VERY welcome
after a hot, dry summer that's been hard on the trees, which have
been pathetically showing strain for several years due to heat and
drought. And we've been having abnormally warm winters punctuated
by vicious cold snaps like the "snowmageddon" that trashed the
power grid over the whole state several years ago.
But Thanksgiving was good as usual, and I'm thankful we're
"gifted" with understanding we're invited to give thanks IN
everything, not FOR everything. The "attitude of gratitude" is as
good for us as spinach.
So much for the sermon. Merry Christmas. Now I wonder who else
lives close to me. It's too risky to try to drive to San Angelo
alone these days, but I can make it short distances. Is it
possible and advisable to create and distribute a list of names,
private emails, phone numbers and/or addresses (or just cities of
residence) for people on the list?

John, I consider myself "solar powered", so I've
really missed the sunshine these last few days. It would be
worth it if we got some good rain from those clouds, but all
we've had in Austin is just sprinkles and drizzle. At least
we're having a fairly mild winter so far!

Just wonderin' if there was anyone who
found themselves in the same situation as I found.
After my visit to San Angelo and Water Valley, by the
time I got home, I found that is have five new pounds
to get rid of. (But, all those goodies were so tasty!)
Just wonderin' how everyone is handling
this cold/damp weather. Personally, I am more than
ready for some sunshine.
Just wonderin' if we will be hearing from
anyone...
