What a crazy weekend! I’ve been hearing a lot about people cutting back on gift giving this year, but that sure didn’t seem to be the case at Jordan Creek yesterday. I had to park almost as far away as my house. OK, not really, but I did figure out on Google Maps that my place is just under two and a half miles from the mall, so getting there was pretty easy. And no, I’m not saying what I bought. Nice try Rachel, Michelle and Lil!

I’m sure glad that I got there yesterday though. Have you heard that we’re about to have our first blizzard of the year tomorrow morning? I had the folks at Hubbell Homes help me set up my programmable thermostat yesterday so that when I get home, the place will be nice and toasty without having the heat run all day. Not that it would make a huge dent in my heating bill with the geothermal and all, but every little bit helps. I never thought I would be so in to green living!
