Nice day. I took a break on the patio to feel the sun but I noticed it was a bit nipply in the shade.
 
Polar vortex 'could bring freezing Arctic air over the U.S. and send temperatures plummeting within weeks'

Weather researcher say there is a chance of a disrupted polar vortex
A polar vortex is air that rests 60,000 feet above the Arctic Circle
A disruption in vortex would mean Arctic air blanketing Northern Hemisphere
In October, National Weather Service predicted warmer-than-usual winter

Oyarde has made the proper offerings to secure good weather for The Land of Indians . If the polar Vortex is disrupted it will bear down on Danke . Avoid the Great Lakes and Dankes house as those peoples are known to become cannibals quickly and often suffer from the brain disease caused by such . My Father explained to me that this brain disease gave rise to the violent and wicked Minnesota Demoncratic Farmer Labor Party which patrols the streets like locusts .

Beautiful day today , sunny & 50 like a nice Nov day , we just did not get any nice Nov days really this yr .
 
Sprinkling all day today . I went to the antique mall to check on sales , see if I could afford to get Mrs O something for Christmas .
 
It's wasn't that cold when I left for work this morning but I took a coat because I've been sick. I'm glad I did because the temps dropped and it's in the 30's now. It's so cold I drove home on fumes because it's too cold to get out and pump gas. I have to finish up Christmas in the morning and I figure it will still be cold but I plan on taking Mr A's car (he usually has gas) and leaving mine.

I stood in the wind , sleet and cold and pumped 21 gallons on the way home at dusk because Mrs O is taking mine .
 
Cold and raining. I was suppose to finish Christmas shopping yesterday but I put it off until today and now I've put it off until tomorrow and I'm trying to figure out how early I have to leave to stop and buy my step father a gift card before I meet them for lunch.

They want us to meet them for lunch tomorrow so we can exchange gifts privately. She does it because she gives my kids nicer gifts and doesn't want their cousins to see them. To be fair, my kids do a lot for them.

My mom is getting a bath robe and a bamboo wind chime. My stepfather is getting a case of orange drink and a gift card to Texas Roadhouse. They love to eat there. They took me there for my birthday and I had to sit on a bull while they sang the birthday song. I wonder if they stick a baby Jesus on that bull for Christmas.
 
I drove three states today in the rain to get home to flurries and cold . Have the fire going . Merry Christmas .
 
Maybe after New Years I am thinking of getting a new set of wiper blades for the F 150 and an eye Dr appt . , I think I have to go to the license branch by end of May . Heavy frost this morning , my fire of split ash is going good .Going to be warm and sunny today though , I will just let the fire go out this afternoon .
 
Mrs O's stocking is hung , a 20.00 FRN under three handfuls of coal , a peppermint , some fancy orange creme cookies and some chocolates . I went to the bait & tackle this morning so she has probably already been in it . That is why I put the coal on top .
 
Danke has a stocking hung but I looked in there and Santa has not left anything in there yet ..........
 
I'm waiting for the men to get dressed for lunch with mom. If they don't hurry up, I'm going to go and collect all the gifts for myself.

It's a bit chilly but it's sunny. I laid off the NyQuil so I could have some holiday cheer at lunch. I'm getting hungry. I've only eaten some fudge the soulless gingers next door gave me and I ate some Reeses Christmas trees as I was filling stockings.

I ran out of wrapping paper so my niece and nephews are getting their gifts in Happy Birthday bags. I wrote Jesus in sharpie under Happy Birthday to make it festive.

When I was little, my mom left filling stockings to my oldest brother. He had been out partying on Christmas Eve and thought it would be funny to steal my candy and fill my stocking with sticks and leaves. I did not think it was funny. I cried and he got yelled at for making me cry.

Every year, I got a giant candy cane and a Lifesavers Storybook. I would also get some homemade divinity candy and a bag of those colorful hard candies.

I always gave my dad a Whitmans sampler gamble chocolate box and a Cracker Barrel sausage and cheese gift set. I helped him eat them out of the goodness of my heart. My mother got a box of chocolate covered cherries (her favorite). I did not help her because I thought the liquid was nasty.
