Today is December 2nd, and it finally feel a little like winter.  I noticed as I was driving to work, even though the sun was shining, there was still a heaviness overhead.  Living here, you will always wake up and have to turn on the news to see what the day will be like, and even then, it can change in an instant. For example driving home from Thanksgiving vacation in Va on Monday, the temperature went from 50 degrees in Greensboro, NC at 5:30pm to 67 degrees in Boiling Spring Lakes, NC at 9:30 pm.  Of course yesterday (Wednesday) I came to work in the morning and by 4 o'clock it had dropped 20 degrees.  Sitting here thinking about what my kids wore to school, shorts, t-shirt, jacket and toboggan, makes me think about an open house I  attended where someone visiting from New England commented on the lack of coat closets in the houses where an agent commented, here we rarely have to wear coats! I have to disagree!  When you are used to 90 degree summers and 72 degree falls...when the 32 degree winters show up like today...I want a coat!

Good news though. the colder winter has put me in the gift buying mood!

Have a good day!
