Rain on the prairie...

It's been sprinkling, and then raining for almost the whole day and there's a rumor going around that tomorrow, some of that rain is going to turn into fluffy, flaky white things falling from the sky! As the winds are supposed to get up to 50 MPH, it could be an actual blizzard outside... Maybe Mom won't go to Bismarck tomorrow?

I just got home from working at the nursing home and am trying to wind down for the night. Sometimes I'm really tired after getting home from 8 hours of constant walking, pushing, pulling, twisting, turning, etc..., but tonight I'm wide awake. Oh dear!

I found the following poem about October and wanted to pass it on. Enjoy the Autumn while it lasts. :)

"October's the month
When the smallest breeze
Gives us a shower
Of autumn leaves.
Bonfires and pumpkins,
Leaves sailing down -
October is red
And golden and brown."
....and white?

Dear Cora,
Who would have thought white? UGH
Someone told me today that by Friday it'll be in the 50s again and we'll forget all about this first snowstorm of the year. Let's think positive!
Love always,
Mom
