This Time of Year

This time of year we share leaves in our neighborhood. The quantity of leaves in our neck of the woods is staggering. We cut down the two trees in our front yard for all the good it did. Neighbor's leaves cover our front yard just the same.

My haircutter Fran is trying to decide if she wants to visit her daugher and son-in-law who live in Boston. This time of year I hear the plans of the people and what is interesting is the undecided plans. People struggle to decide what to do over the holidays.

This time of year we don't usually get much precipitation. There seems to be more than usual this year with a big front due in tonight.

This time of year we hear people on TV telling us how to deal with the holiday stress. My solution is not to take everything so seriously.
