Monday

So begins another week. I worked yesterday, clouds and cold and gloomy (the weather, not me, you silly people) and the snow finally started flurrying last night. This morning, a dusting, it likes like powdered sugar on the ground.

Thanksgiving week here in the US of A...time for the big machine of commerce to accelerate. Not my thing you know.

In the meantime, let's see if we can fill up the comments with lists of 3 things you're thankful for today. I do so enjoy participatory projects and seeing what other folks are thinking about...
