Summer finally left,
dragging its feet.
Autumn showed up
in shorts and sunglasses.
Mid November the red maple
slowly showed its true colors
to near naked trees close by.
Below freezing blew in
by the seat of its pants
the weekend before Thanksgiving.
Soon some say the snow will fly.
packing dreaded ice.
All this I see in my periphery
as I focus on you, my love .
But perhaps with luck
we can get through
this your hell
and back in time for spring.

Dennis' treatments (God willing no setbacks)will be over mid January. Hoping by Spring he will be feeling more like his old self. ~L

Started snowing lightly here last night. Still snowing this morning. By this time tomorrow I'll need my snowblower to get to the garage to get my snow shovel... Wait... Snowblower's in there too

Rex, that reminds me of a totally inappropriate and politically incorrect joke where the punch line is a snowblower that won't work.
Guess I'll be doing the snow removal this year so I hope the snow doesn't come too often or get too deep. ~L
