Work Party

Yesterday was the scheduled Christmas "party" at Josie's flower shop. She was suppose to bring lasagna, but had absolutely no free time to prepare it for the occasion. So, at 6:30 AM yesterday, I drove up the street to our local Safeway and picked up a Stouffers Lasagna to serve 12 people. Josie said it was all eaten, so I guess it was OK. They also had their gift exchange and she brought home a couple gifts that were nice, and she got off a little early to boot. She has the day off today, but has to work tomorrow which is the big delivery day at her shop.

It appears that our nice weather is going too change for the worse on Christmas day. There is a storm coming in from California that will provide some snow up north, and showers in our area late in the day. This is when it would be nice to have some property up north so we could enjoy a white Christmas. I was going to wash the truck today but will hold off now until the rain ends on either Wednesday or Thursday.

We can really see the difference in our commuting costs. Our gasoline expense, so far in December, is zero dollars. With Josie having only a 2 mile round-trip commute now each day, and my driving being limited to local activities, we are saving big time on gas by only having to fill up once a month. I hope that continues, as Arizona is still way behind the rest of the country in lowering fuel costs...
