Brent and Truck Packed and Ready to Leave Today Bev, Brent and Clayton packed up their truck and started home. It was a dark cloudy morning and they slept longer than they intended to so didn't get away until 8:30 or 9 a.m. She sent me an email that they didn't get home until almost 11 p.m. driving in winter weather, and would call me tomorrow. It was pretty lonely with them gone. It didn't snow here today and ended up fairly clear and cold.
Joe went out to get the mail, and did his other chores, bringing in wood and feeding the cats. I saw all five of the cats out sunning themselves next to the feed manger under the horse shed in the corral. The sun shines right in there. As usual I'm always glad to know I still have them all.
Today I did finally look at my email and had a lot to delete, plus enjoyed hearing from those friends who wrote. I wanted to thank every one who sent us messages and Christmas cards. Love those Christmas letters! I'm sorry I didn't manage to get cards out for the holidays. Maybe when I get my other computer back I'll make a card and send to everyone.
We started the laundry going before Beverly left. I figured I'd maybe make one bed back up each day, but I felt good enough to do all three of them, and get the bedrooms back together. Did all the laundry and got it folded, and got the kitchen spiffed up pretty good. Betty called after her nap and we had a nice visit. We had leftover turkey for dinner, so that was easy.
I cancelled my old wyoming.com address which I'd kept for a year, so if you are one still writing to me there, I will not get any messages on there any more. (The new address for most of the last couple of years is lmthomas@hughes.net.)
