December 10, 2015 - Packers

What about those Packers? I think all Packers’ fans got their Christmas present a little early last week. I just hope we don’t need another “present” before this season ends and the playoffs start. And speaking of Christmas, we are only two weeks away from Christmas Eve. Looking out my window as I type and having checked out the seven day forecast, I believe all the lush, green grass is going to be around for a while. In fact the grass has some of the green intensity that grass has in the spring has. The good news is that two weeks is still plenty of time to get your shopping done and your house prepare if friends and family are coming over during the holidays. More good news is that tomorrow the sun will set one minute later than it did today. Sure, we’ll continue to lose time in the morning, but a lot of us aren’t awake (or awake but not conscious) to notice. You will notice that there are a number of new books listed below. Since there is still plenty of time for shopping and getting your house in order that means there is still plenty of time for you to read a book. Enjoy!
