I awoke this morning and realized that I am experiencing regional culture shock. The weatherman said that the temperatures would reach as high as 38 today, and I thought that 38 sounded really warm. Well, Toto, we're not in Florida anymore!
The sun has been missing for most of the time that we have been in the North, yet the temperatures have been mild enough to allow the precipitation to come down in the form of rain. The little snow that we received upon our arrival last week has all melted, save for a tiny mound at the corner of the driveway.
Thankfully, the rain rather than snow allowed Stephanie to arrive safely from Minnesota, so we are very happy about that. We are looking forward to celebrating Christmas with her and with Lindsay and family tomorrow.
We have been blessed with many things this past year: Owen's adoption into the family, regained health and strength, two beautiful homes that we continue to improve, and most of all the love and support of all of our family and friends.
Merry Christmas to you all! Have a wonderful, prosperous, blessed new year.
