I left for Winston this morning. Ran a couple of errands before meeting my friends from the Firm at Cin Cin Berger for lunch. Great to get to see them again.

From there I went to my haircut appointment then drove back up the mountain. Temperatures were in the upper 40’s at the foot of the mountain. By the time I made it up the mountain temps had dropped to 37 with snow showers. The grass is slightly covered in snow here at the house but nothing is falling right now. Winds are gusting in the 40 to 50 mph range.

Partly cloudy and warm with highs in the low 70’s and breezy.

I had my yearly physical this morning then went on to the bookstore. Left at noon to go to my last cardiac rehab session. I will now continue my workouts at the gym here. Glad to not be having to do that drive three days week but they were wonderful over there and I learned a lot.

Went back to the store to finish out the day and close since Joyce had a meeting.

Betsy and Nancy arrived around 11:15 from Winston. We had a nice visit then went into town to have lunch at Crave then do some shopping in town.

They left about 3 to head for home.

Sunny and breezy with highs in the upper 50’s.

The day started out slow at the store. Then, mid afternoon things went from zero to 100 in less than hour. Lots of sales and several small donations to take care of. We ended up almost at $200.00 by closing time.

Light frost this morning but did not get the few plants I still have in the ground. I do need to pull those up before we get a freeze. Warmed up into the upper 40’s by this afternoon.

A slow day at the store. I did cardiac rehab this morning then went in late. Almost finished with that. We have a couple of small donations come in to work on.

A nice day with lots of sunshine and temperatures in the lower 60’s with a breeze.

An off and on busy day at the store but not as busy as a usual Saturday. We did make over $100.00. Processed a couple of donations and organized some shelves.

A few showers this morning left over from yesterday’s dreary, rainy day. We only had a total of a half an inch. The sun came out mid-morning and temps rose into the low 70’s. Warm for November.

I did my cardiac rehab and worked at the store. A slow day but we did okay in sales. I helped Joyce change the window and did some odds and end chores between customers.
