Brrr!

14 October 2006

After a fairly warm and mostly pleasant week, we had our first frost last night, and it actually hit freezing early this morning.  Prediction is for another frost tonight, but not quite as cold.  At least this year, it’s about the right time for frost, not as early as it has been the last few.

And it should make the fall leaves a lot brighter, which will be nice too!

Not much in the way of yard sales today, which wasn’t particularly surprising; it is getting late for them.  I did find a very nice blue winter car-coat (I wonder if that name for the length between a jacket and full-length coat is still in use?) and a heavy wool vest, both of which I think will be most welcome soon!

Also, I’d picked up a pair of earrings at Happy Harry’s (er, Walgreen’s, when it gets all the signs changed), and for a wonder, they didn’t bother me — I’ve had a metal allergy for decades, so either it’s decided to go away, or this brand simply doesn’t trigger it.  So I went back today to get a couple more, found a boxed set of 2 pairs of earrings and a necklace that matched one on sale for $5, but when I got to the register, they only charged me $3.50!  I’m going back tomorrow for some more — the original price, when I removed the sale sticker, was $9.99!  I like that kind of sale, I do.  :)

All in all, a pretty decent, if chilly, day.
