With some major-league snow coming, I decided I needed to wander over to the NaNoWriMo page and do my first real update. I think I have some like 23,337 total words so far in my anthology of short stories. Their calculator says that at this rate, I'll finish on or about December 9th. I will finish...

It is cold and very windy here today. According to weather dot com, we have already reached and lost our anticipated high today when it was 34 about eight this morning. Yikes! As I see what Lisa posted last night, I'm not going to be here much longer, come hades or high snowbanks. I've consulted... Sign in to see full entry.

It's been kind of tense around here, so here is a cheap joke. My doctor told me to start my exercise program slowly, so today I drove past a store that sells sweatpants. Sign in to see full entry.
Weather Or Not
As far as late fall days in the UP, today doesn't look 'that bad.' LOL It is about 40 right now, with temps heading toward 45. It's been raining (a pleasant change from 'snowing!') on and off all night, but it looks like that the rain has stopped for several hours. It's not much, but it is better...

To tell you that I am getting frustrated by the progress or lack thereof on this house deal would be an understatement. We awoke to another morning of another two inches of snow. While most of that will melt over the course of the day, it begins the process of freezing the top layer of the ground,... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, nuts. It snowed like crazy last night. The end result was about seven new inches of snow still on the ground with little chance of melting today. Tomorrow will be the first day of a three-day 'warmup.' With every bone in my body, I am hoping that we will be able to move to Florida very, very... Sign in to see full entry.

We got about eight inches of snow overnight, but it was down to less than an inch on the ground by noon, noon-thirty. Typically, Lisa goes to bed about eighty-thirty/nine, but last night, she stayed up until ten before 'coaxing' me to lay down with her. We spent several hours talking and giggling....

Despite being only 35 out right now, it is a relatively 'decent' day. We want to take a trip over to Munising to say goodbye to the various falls over there. We might spend one last night in our 'honeymoon hotel,' and recount earlier trips. Take that any way that you want to take it! lol It's my... Sign in to see full entry.

Updates and the Story Continues
Good morning. It got cold here last night, dropping to 23 about 4 AM. The ran turned to snow, and here we are looking like a near-perfect white Christmas. Joy. lol On a different note, Lisa is feeling much better. I've given her two injections of antibiotics, and it seems to have really kicked the... Sign in to see full entry.
