JP and I got the hearth and stove board that I tiled installed in the family room downstairs, brought the woodstove out of storage, and re-arranged in the storage area to keep cardboard boxes away from the area of the chimney pipes. Dad helped JP get the stove pipes installed.
We celebrated my Mom's birthday with a big ham dinner, cake and ice cream at our house.
The girls helped JP and I fill up the wood stack on the back veranda, and made a new stack in the covered window well near the main door. This will be for the stove downstairs, with easy access from the storage room.
I uncovered several rust and black striped Wooly Worms curled up in the wood pile. Supposedly the width of their stripes has some bearing on the coldness of the winter to come.
We met some friends to watch the movie, "Puss in Boots".
We also fit in our yearly Fall Family Photo shoot for "school" pictures for the girls, and a family pic for our yearly Christmas cards.
The next round of school and work is about to roll around once again in a few hours. And so it goes!
