Tonight will be the coldest night of the fall season under freezing for the first time this fall. I will have to bring in a few of the less hardy plants from the porch tonight and the next couple of nights as well. It seems that winter is knocking at our door steps. I am not ready for cold weather I have to dig out my cold weather stuff for work I have no gloves, well let me restate that I have 9 right handed gloves and for some reason zero left handed gloves I guess I can keep one hand warm it will have to be my right hand. I think I will take tonight off and sleep through the worst of the first real cold night.

Sunday morning my daughter wrecked her car while at work and I spent the bulk of my Sunday sitting in the Emergency Room with her. I think she destroyed her car and will be out of work for a while, since she needs her car to do her delivery job. I am very glad that my Grandson was not with her, he was at home and that was a good thing.

I just talked to her and she is sore but is going to be ok in a few days. People are hurt in car accidents every day and I am very glad that I have been very lucky and not involved in any accident for a long time, I drive safely and watch where I am going and I avoid red cars as much as I can. Of course my daughters car was red.

After Monday nights Cleveland Brown upset of the defending champions the New York Giants there is only one unbeaten team left in the National Football League, The Tennessee Titians are the last team without a loss, I guess it was a very good week to have our Bye week. There were so many upsets who knows if we could of held out. Last week Buffalo dropped from the ranks of the unbeaten and this week it was the Giants. Next week we face a weak team the Kansas City Chiefs but those are the ones who win in the weird weeks.

After being unable to locate any gasoline to buy for almost a week, the gasoline flow has finally caught up to Nashville Tennessee. The price is also starting to drop after being above $4.00 a gallon for several weeks it has now dropped down to around $3.50 a gallon. Who would of thought that we would celebrate gasoline at $3.50 a gallon? All around us have had gasoline when we were in a terrible shortage and now the price in Birmingham Alabama is under $3.00 a gallon, we can only hope that the price here will drop to something close to that very soon.
