Well, the end of October is here. Where does the time go? The eastern area of the United States is facing an early winter. From Maryland on north, they had a major nor'easter this weekend, causing a lot of snow and ice damage. Down here, it went from a Friday that was near 80 degrees for a high to a low of near freezing last night and tonight.

Yesterday, I noticed that the voltage gauge in my truck wasn't where it should have been; I think that my 15 year-old alternator is shot. It is to the point now that my little pickup is probably going to start to nickel-and-dime me to death, so I guess I'm going to have to start keeping an eye out for a cheap, simple pickup truck to replace it. I don't need anything major, as long as it has an air conditioner.

My son turned 11 this past week. I seems like just yesterday that I was carrying him around in a baby carrier. He is growing up way too fast.
