Cold and wet
Got a fire going and curled up finishing off my morning coffee and breakfast.
Grace had a couple of 'accidents' last night but she is starting to signal reliably when she needs to go out -- smart puppy. She is curled up a few feet from me snoring and making the cutest little gruntling sounds.
Pouring down rain -- glad I got the fence fixed yesterday as more rain is in the forecast and we are staring down the barrel of this:

...THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL OF THE SEASON IS EXPECTED ABOUT
MIDWEEK...
THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF COLD PACIFIC STORMS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL IN THE MOUNTAINS LATE WEDNESDAY INTO
THURSDAY. THE SNOW LEVEL IS ANTICIPATED TO PLUMMET TO NEAR 2500
FEET...OR BELOW CASCADE PASS LEVEL...BY EARLY THURSDAY. AT THIS
TIME...IT WAS STILL TOO EARLY TO KNOW EXACTLY HOW MUCH SNOW WILL
FALL.
IF YOU ARE PLANNING ANY OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES OR TRAVEL IN THE
MOUNTAINS THIS WEDNESDAY...PLEASE STAY TUNED TO THE LATEST
FORECASTS FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.
A lot of the familiar faces are showing up for this year's ski season and the longrange forecasts are looking good for cold and lots of snow.
Time to toss another log on the fire and get back to working on a computer -- upgraded it to Win7 and now reloading a lot of the music applications. Was working on it two weeks ago but got sidetracked.
