 RH>> Consider that the beginning of last week we had some days in
 RH>> the low 80s. Weather Underground is saying mid 50s for highs
 RH>> this week end tho, actually a bit below normal.
 NB>> Meanwhile, while I was up at the Pond, Friday night's temps
 NB>> were in the 20s... a bit below normal for them, too.... It
 NB>> warmed up by Sunday...

 RH> We're in the 60s for a few days, supposed to hit 70 Friday and
 RH> Saturday, then back down to 50 on Sunday. Roller coaster weather!

Roller coaster weather here, too....  yesterday it was in the low 70s,
today it got into the 60s and then started dropping this afternoon...
tonight and thru Tuesday, they are talking 30s and snow... lake
effect...  Next week, back into the 40s and rain....
 
 NB>>> is more like fall...  I am wearing a sweater more often,
 NB>>> though....
 RH>> We're grabbing light to medium weight jackets. Yesterday for going out
 RH>> to quilting and voting, I had on a light weight (pull over) sweater
 RH>> and grabbed my jeans jacket. By the time we went to vote (about 2:30),
 RH>> the jacket was just comfortable enough but I changed out for a lined
 RH>> windbreaker about 3 hours later when we went out for supper.
 NB>> The sweater jacket is my fall jacket... definitely not ready to use
 NB>> the heavier winter jacket....

 RH> We wore winter jackets last Saturday at an outdoor wedding, Sunday to
 RH> church. After church it had warmed up enough that a mid weight one
 RH> would have sufficed.

I'll probably still just wear the sweater jacket... but if there's snow
on the ground, I guess the winter boots will get some use tomorrow...
maybe Monday as well....
 
 NB>>> Definitely progress... in the right direction...  ;)
 RH>>> Yes, and the doctor thinks so as well.
 NB>> Also a good thing...  :)

 RH> He said something about doing laundry--I told him I'd been doing
 RH> it for several weeks. I'm still not kneading bread; I want to wait
 RH> a few more weeks on that.
 
Probably a good idea...  :)

 NB>>> So did you get it done in time for the shower...?  And was it
 NB>>> well received....?  :)
 RH>> Yes, and yes--tho I realised after I was almost done quilting it,
 RH>> that I'd inverted 2 rows. No significant problem, just skewed the
 RH>> design a bit but the mom to be loved it anyway.
 NB>> Made it clearly a one-of-a-kind...  ;)
 
 RH>> Only one of 2 hand made items at the shower.
 NB>> Made with lots of love... :)

 RH> Very much so; our preaching pastor's wife does a plaque with the
 RH> baby's name on it as her gift so we know there will usually be 2
 RH> hand made gifts.

And I'm sure that the moms being honored look forward to them as
well....  ;)
