Well, Jung In should be flying in about an hour (Washingtons time), she has to change planes in Philadelphia, I hope they have the airport clear by the time she reaches there. She should arrive here around 8:45 am our time... I cant wait to see her....going to be a good Christmas, now we just need Linda here to share with us also...:(

YAY! I got to talk to Linda yesterday. It was so good to hear her voice, I miss her so much. Wish she could be here for Christmas to join Jung In being with us. Snowing here today, looks like we have maybe an inch or two by now, have to work 4-12 today, hopefully by the time i come home it will have stopped.

catching up

Saturday, Windy and cold, took Aunt Dottie and Carol out for supper, I had hot dogs and beans, Fred was surprised by what i ordered because i dont usually eat beans, but I saw another man with them and thot they looked good??? I ate the hot dogs and a portion of the beans but not all of them. We had a nice visit anyway.
Sunday, went to Church, havent been there for a while due to work schedule, I miss it. It was nice to see everyone and see the advent candles being lit.
Monday, Woohoo!! I finally got to ride Bud, the temps were in the 30s and no wind. The driveway was a little slippery but the snow had softened up a bit so i got to give Bud a little workout by trotting in the snow. I thought I would play it safe and take him down over the hill on the snowcovered grassy part rather than the icy driveway. Well..... he spooked at something and we went about 3 feet sideways in one big step/jump, thought i was coming off, not only did we take that big leap but also was slanting downhill and he decided to turn quickly around to see what it was that he thot was so scary.. anyways, had a good ride. Hope to ride again tomorrow afternoon... I was actually able to get pictures by bringing the camera with me and riding over to Freds workshop where he and my friend Kristen were turning pens. I had to yell pretty loud for him to come out, gave him the camera so he could get some pictures..

finally a day for riding

Wicked windy here the last few days, flags are blowing straight out. Bud is spooking all over the place, i guess he doesnt like the wind...?? It was only 21 degrees this morning, plus the wind chill... i dont really want to know how cold it was...at least the sun is out today tho.
Went out to dinner with Freds sister and her husband, had a good time, the chopsuey i ordered was a little too spicy for me, drank some milk when i got home.
Have the wood stove cranking today! Love wood heat.

Barn in first storm of the season, Bud munching, my tire track in driveway taken from ground level

follow the tracks and what do you find?

wow its been a week since i last wrote anything, I lead such an exciting life... Have been riding Bud for half an hour or so with the lights on, he is doing pretty good with that.
We are possibly going to get 2-4 inches of snow tonight, working til 2 and was planning on going to mall after work, I have never driven a front wheel drive before, so it should be fun for the first time in the snow.... yeehaw!
