It's begining to look a lot like Christmas...

Yes, I realize it is only the middle of November, but I couldn't wait for December and wanted to enjoy my decorations as long as possible.  I had Michael up on the roof putting lights icicle lights up while I hung lights in the tree.  It has been getting colder but so far no snow.   

On the research front things aren't going very well.  The laser has been inconsistent it its power so I have been trying to figure out what is going wrong.  So far tech support has been having me dismantle the laser and switch out parts to figure out what is wrong.  However, it looks as if I am going to have to send it back to the company for repair.  Also, I am giving a FlowPac seminar on Friday which has been stressful since Dr. Sucosky is PowerPoint perfectionist.
