Chilly days ahead

Bright sun but definitely into the winter temps. Socks on in the morning and barefoot by afternoon. Not complaining mind you, but finally into the normal temperatures for this time of year.
Update;
my neck is no longer feeling the burning and is not sore to touch. Whatever got me or caused this is healing. Everyday it is looking better.  My friend Keith helped me check the entire chair area for signs of a scorpion and we did not find any. He also got the mouse and keyboard finally working.
Yesterday friend Sherry and I went to Scottsdale for the morning...we originally intended to go to Tombstone but with the forecast of rain we changed our plans. Enjoyable company makes for a fun time. This morning I went out to
pick tomatoes...can not wait to enjoy them in a salad. The plant still has many more still in the green stage. With the temps dropping to the low 40s at night I may cover them to help keep them warmer. I am hoping some of the plants can take the cold nights. But there is the Geranium
 Hot pink and bright with a bloom and buds ready to open
Autumn Sage fully in bloom with it's purple flowers
The bright red of Hot Lips
and blooms on the Alien....I mean Snail Vine. So for December it is so nice to see the color and cheerful garden. Today is a few errands kind of day and then some needlework and there still is the closet I have been working to rearrange/organize. Had a fun gift opening time on Skype with sis Lynowl last evening and I will show you my gifts tomorrow.
Thank you for the lovely words for my Denny on his birthday both here and on Facebook. Thank you for your friendship which continues to give me encouragement. Right now I need my coffee......have a good day my friends.

Your plants are doing so well, the blooms are gorgeous! Glad your neck is healing. I saw on the news that it may get down into the 30s later this week overnight. I'm going to give my plants a good watering and prepare to cover them.

Even if it's getting a little chilly, you still have so many beautiful flowers going on! That's awesome.
