Fall Time

Fall is here. It's cold out, the sky tends to be cloudy quite often these days. It isn't surprising if the temperature doesn't get above 60 degrees during the day, and that it might drop to anything around 20 degrees at night. Most mornings there is a good chance that there will be frost on the ground. There are always more leaves to rake. An abundance of tea, coffee, and hot chocolate are being drunk. Extra blankets are put on the beds... no more sleeping with just a sheet. The trees rapidly turn vibrant colors and in a week or two are suddenly all bare. The sun is setting earlier and earlier. Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up with the sun? It comes peaking up from the horizon later and later each morning. Soup for dinner, sounds so hardy and appetizing. Summer clothes are packed away, and replaced by long sleeves, winter coats, scarves mittens and hats. Fires in the fire places are stoked, wood burners are loaded quite often, and heaters are running all the time. Guns, bows, camouflage, and blaze orange, are coming out for hunting. Schools is back, along with after school activities. Oatmeal, pancakes, or cream of wheat make a nice warm breakfast. A steady order and flow is resumed to make up for the laid back and lazy summer. Fall is here.

Motivated.

Well, I figured I'd just leave a little note or something, considering I haven't really posted in quite some time.
I'm feeling very industrious today... maybe due to the fact that I have completely gone through my wardrobe and practically gotten rid of a whole box of clothes! Whoohoo! lol ...it had actually started out as just changing my clothes over from summer to winter attire.
And it has gotten so COLD out lately! Brrrr... it's not to bad in the afternoon, but in the mornings there has been frost. And heating the whole house is quite expensive so for now we are trying to live with the temp. indoors and 68 degrees. I guess it's that time of year. Yay... that means Thanksgiving is just around the corner! =D
Well I should continue in my motivated mood and get more done. I'm hoping to be able to go up to E.C. tonight with Ems to Stacy and James' house for a little party.
I'll try to write a little sooner (and maybe about something worth hearing about next time. lol). ;)
TTYL!
