welcome to November...and part 3...

can you believe it?  
that winter is breathing down our backs?
how does this happen?
its a sneaky one...

there were reports of spitting snow yesterday in our area...
personally, I did not see it...
if I had, I would be in bed with the covers pulled up over my head...
so not ready...

had a day with my guy yesterday...
did the shopping thing...
so today, its a home alone day and a piddle fartin' day...

and a nappin' kind of day...
I sure hope the sun is out today...
its still dark here...
just waiting for the dawn...

we drove around a bit last night...
and found bunches of goblins just running the streets!
but not one came here...
we are on the edge of town, on a dead end street...
kind of in our own little world here...
and they forget us...
I called dibs on the peanut butter cups last night...
we have 4 bags of candy here...

now, just to let you know what a bumper crop is...
a normal good year here is 180-190 bushels of corn per acre...
and the farmers are really happy with that...
but this year is breaking all kinds of records...
they are pulling out 230-240 bushels...
that makes harvest go longer...
more trips to the elevator...
the grain bins...
trucks and wagons are everywhere...
more ground piles...
more trains...
more hours...
DH had 88 hours in last week...
all the guys are pulling those kind of hours...
but hoping for a slow down this coming week...
until its finished...
and we can get back to normal...
;0)
so, do you have your tree up yet?
just wondering...
