White - ish

Christmas

The snow fell, a little o/v night. The paved ground is beige mostly BUT the grass kept the snow.
The backyard is dark yet you can see the snow is a covering
Hoping for sun later b/c the snow will likely stay through the day to-morrow
Unfortunately, not tobogganing snow amounts

We are 38 F and not expecting a burst of heat
Tho'  Fri is on tap for 40 +

Afternoon revision. Day went from dull gray to lighter gray. And the snow barely survived the heat of 37 F. If replenished o/vnight there is still some hope.

I got out early to Walmart, although the parking lot was 75% occupied, my area on the east side was normal. I picked up bread and buns plus coleslaw and pineapple on sale 50 % off, headed for checkout to find, both cashiers busy w/ large buggy loads.
The express line for 1 - 12 items was walk up and go.
Beautii, my friends.
Ensconced w/ a Busch beer and the laptop accomplishing not much but pleased to do so.

The eve is coming. Our Christmas eve dinns is well established by now. Clam chowder, fresh bread, cheese, olives and wine or sparkly something.
Its a hard life but someone has to do it.
BTW, our Xmas Eve menu was established while we were still dating. Thus 32 yrs later, the same request gets filled every year.

It is Christmas Eve b/c I think it officially starts around 9 P or earlier in the central time zone ( kidding )

Thus, Merry Christmas

P.S. our water heater quit this afternoon before Xmas Eve
