It is 55 and we are waiting for a storm to start. There are going to be higher winds so my husband is worried about power outages. One of our neighbors took down his Christmas decorations because of the possible storm. Got some reading and housework done this morning. More reading, housework, and paperwork this afternoon.

Got out to the grocery store this morning to do shopping. Went today because I'm busy the rest of the week. It took me about six tries to get the credit card machine to work. I was not happy after all their credit card machines went down a few weeks ago and my husband had to come down to the store with cash. Glad it finally worked. This evening I'm going to a meetup of my local WW friends. It will be nice to see everyone.

bbbearsmom, thanks again for doing this! Seeing that we only have 9 days till winter solstice really helps me. I know I can push through 9 day!Even thought the change will be very tiny at first, I can keep telling myself it IS changing and will get better

hpeterson1951, The day after the solstice I start adding my local sundown time so we can see it get later over the weeks. By the time it gets back up to 5 p.m. I'm starting to feel better. Someplaces have winter solstice celebrations. I know years ago the Unitarian church in the next town use to have one.

Went and got our teeth cleaned today. We travel 45 minutes to the dentist because the dentist grew up next door to my husband, we been going for decades, and he is good. The problem is on the way home we run into early rush hour traffic coming from New York City into Connecticut. But we both got clean bills of dental health, so we don't have to go back for six months.

Drove upstate to get our yearly eye exams, all is good for both of us. It's with the daughter of the eye doctor I went to almost 50 years ago when I moved to Connecticut. This year my husband and I have known each other 40 years. Cat is by my computer waiting for his 2:00 p.m. snack. I'm working on cutting back on the cat's food because they are both overweight, but it is hard on me not to have food down for them all of the time. It is 39 and bright and sunny out, but chilly.
