1. Happy Columbus Day. Columbus day became a Federal Holiday in 1937. Click the link and read about it--it may surprise you that it is not a uniquely U.S. holiday.
2. I bet you forgot it was a holiday until you went to collect the mail. Surprise--no bills!
3. Did you know there are 10 Federal Holidays?

- Veteran's Day
- Thanksgiving
- Christmas (yes, it is OK to say Merry Christmas!)
4. I enjoyed a weekend of wine tasting and history in Charlottesville, VA again this year. We had a lot of fun with friends.
5. The weather has moderated and is awesome. Don't forget to enjoy it. It may be the last before the dark days are upon us.
6. My dog was so happy to see me when we returned this yesterday that she has not left my side since. It was a little tough taking a shower--but we worked it out.
7. Well, we finished the bed exchange with Patrick and Tina. We received a queen bed as our guest bed in exchange for a full. It is now set up and ready for company. And yes--true to form, blood was spilled!
8. And so the week begins. Thankfully, I have a short week--I'm taking Friday off. Chris is off and it's her birthday.
