It's blowing in from Jim's direction. Thanks Jimbo! O'Hare is delayed an average of 6.5 hours on flights. Cindy has customers coming in. She might be taking care of some of them in the morning too if they don't make it back. Xmas party for work tonight. Lions Xmas dinner Monday night. Working on last projects of the season on my day "off" today.

We're having a pineapple express (stay dry, Rick) so it's 56* and very windy. I just walked the dogs and Ellie's fur was blowing backwards. Had an inch and a half of rain yesterday, more on the way.
