Fall

Thanksgiving has come and gone and yet Henry and I have survived another Thanksgiving without Harrington.  Even though it was just me, Henry and BJ  we cooked a turkey. The aromatic scent of the turkey roasting in the oven evoked precious memories of past Thanksgivings and reminded me how blessed we truly are even if our nest is almost empty.

Fall has finally arrived in the Valley of the Sun and just as the temperature is finally dropping and I was enjoying the Fall colors it's time to put away the Fall Home Decor and get ready for Christmas.

Henry assembled the Christmas tree early last week and discovered that after some  fifteen years our pre-lit tree has lost some of its glow. Repairing  or buying  new lights was added to his "honey do list". He finally got around to replacing the lights Wednesday night only to realize he didn't purchase enough and he says I'm the one who doesn't properly measure things. (LOL!!)
Tomorrow we'll finish decorating the tree and put away the Fall decorations and begin our count down  for Harrington's Homecoming (3 weeks) :)
