Yep, it's winter

When my plane landed here in OKC this past Saturday, I was pleased (and grateful) to learn that it was 60 degrees in late December, having just gotten back from a chillier Washington. While I wasn't counting on it lasting much longer, I certainly wasn't expecting the bottom to drop out. Sure enough, on the second day of winter, we got (trace amounts of) snow, and I don't think it got much (if at all) over freezing today. In fact, for the next couple of days it's not supposed to exceed freezing. Yuck. On the bright side (ha ha) the days are getting longer... (just over three more months til baseball season!)


So I made arrangements today for Darby's upcoming birthday party. I can't believe she's going to be nine years old. And only four years from getting revenge on mean old dad by becoming a teenager.


Am I the only one not quite done with Christmas shopping yet? I'm hoping to wrap it up (again with the ha ha) tomorrow night, which I don't expect to be pleasant between the crowds and cold.
