Cooling Trend
Its a two cat night for Woody and me...Once we throw a blanket on the bed (it was down to a chilly 60 last night. no just sleeping under the sheet) Mak and Nani come for the fun of all of us sharing the "sleeping nest" together. A bit crowded but they are so cuddly sweet!. However the joyfull purring can get so loud that it wakes me up!
Its definately fall here. I can feel the difference in the night time temperatures which is really the biggest seasonal change here. The cats are lovely with their winter coats all shiny and fluffy. They will bee lovely six months out of the year in Ohio.
Speaking of Ohio, I have not finished the photo blog, but I will go ahead and link it as I dont know how much time I will have to work on it right now. Eventually
My Wide Green Fields will become my working blog once we move... there are still some pics to down load and to organize but you will get the gist of the trip and the fact that I love yellow and red trees...
Two of my friends here are talking about moving to the mainland, the job thing is dismal...the much ballyhooed 3.9 percent unemployment rate is a anomoly and not accurate. It doesnt take into account the fact that we have hordes of folks moving here with tons of money that are buying and building homes that feeds the local economy in a big way. People that are used to having little are having a lot right now, buying cars and spending their earnings, but little saving is going on. Like most building booms, this too shall pass and things will grind back up to 5-10 percent unemployment as no widgits are being made or even grown here, just houses as far as the eye can see. Its a false economy and a bit scary. I am glad for going now while we can as far as the economics goes...
I had a man in looking at the shop. He wants only the improvements... Fine. Talk to the Agent. I can sell the inventory at my leasure via EBay if necessary.
I know of several business people that are taking stock of their positions and maybe liqudating in the new year... So I do feel better that I am not cutting and running.
Cleaning house Sunday and Monday, cant wait for you, Mo, to get here... So looking forward to talking up a storm...
