Family is away til January...they'd just come home and fine me dangling from a noose tied to the star on top of the tree.....hell of an "ornament" for the kids to walk in on.
My thoughts on December have always been that the warm stretches will outweigh the cold, but no one will mistake this for December 2015 or even 2014...it will snow.
December should still get warm, but this fall seems "different"......I am really optimistic about this season. Weenie ob is that wintery outcomes seem primed to overachieve.
