Follow up...and other things.

I can't believe we're well into November already, and it's been so eventful!

November 1 - OSU Homecoming parade. Short and sweet. See the previous blog entry for pictures. But I found out after a chat with my Dad that OSU used to have really major Homecoming parades. Until one year a student fell off a flat-bed truck on the parade route and was run over the truck.

November 2 - Dad, Eric and the rest of the Great Elk Hunters came home from hunting, ending the elk hunting widowhood of the wives. Unfortunately, it was a lousy year for hunting. Good thing all the elk meat from 2007 wasn't eaten yet. I do love my elk steak!

November 4 - The Historic Election. Hopes are high, and it's going to take a miracle for the man to achieve all those hopes. My advice to all...Keep Praying.

November 7 - Would've been my Grams' 92nd Birthday. It's been almost eight years since she passed and I still miss her very much.

I also had a great dinner with Erin. I love having some of my friends close by!

November 8 - I woke up to rain. It lulled me back to sleep in my soft flannel cocoon. When I finally did surface, it was a good day to hunker down and do nothing. I love those days!

Tomorrow we're having a family dinner. It's one of those little things I'm so thankful for. The three years I was away really brought home how much my family and spending time with them mean to me.
