The first snow

So, the house is clean. I should plan a party
every fall. That way I have the drive to really clean the
house before it gets too cold to do the bed room and the
guest room. I have also washed all the glasses. We have a
dozen "water" glasses and another dozen "wine glasses" and a
another dozen "juice" glasses." All are now clean and ready
to be juice, water or wine glasses.

Matson called this morning to ask to "borrow" enough wood to
get through the day. The house is cold and the wood he had
ordered wasn't coming until later in the week. I told him
Robert was in the barn and he'd have to ask him. He
couldn't leave the kids, nor would he, I gather, bring the
kids down to ask Robert. How would he get the wood, if he
wouldn't leave the kids by themselves. Were we supposed to
cart the wood up to him? Anyway, he apparently found
someone to give him some wood because when I called back and
said he could borrow the wagon (again) and take a load of
wood to his house he didn't answer the phone. I am
wondering how he and the kids will get through the winter.
He is so unorganized and so unknowing as to how to do
things. He should never have bought a house up here.

We went to a blue grass concert at the schoolhouse last
night. It was mediocre. The lead player had written all
the songs and was really into himself. He one-by-one at
various times introduced the other players, except he forgot
one of them. The music was all the same. It was as if they
played the same music over and over, but with a variation on
the words.

It snowed today and was cold, but not yet freezing. We had
hoped for more snow.

Tomorrow I go to Dr. Roberts to have my eyes check and to
schedule my next cataract surgery.
