I Love The 'Ber Months...

My youngest sister, Jan has a lovely group on Facebook - "Handmade Treasures by Jan" - as well as her "Treasure Trove of Gratitude" group. You may want to check them out.

Jan shared this image she created and I loved it. The 'ber months really are my favorites. To me they signify the earth preparing for rest after a productive spring and summer season. 

I'm especially looking forward to this year. I still have canning to do this season, and it's much more enjoyable when it's cooler outside. I'll fill the pantry in preparation for the winter ahead, and when the snow flies, Handsome and I can stay safely tucked in the farmhouse with the girls.

This year is especially exciting for us as our elder granddaughter is getting married in October. She's our first grandchild to "tie the knot". We love her fiancé, and can't wait to celebrate their new beginning.

How do you feel about autumn? Are you a fan or not?

PS. Sorry I'm behind on responding to comments. I promise to catch up soon!

Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho...

Do something fun (and think of me) today, okay? See you tomorrow.

It Was Just One Of Those Days...

Late start. Handsome going to the hospital (visiting a family member). Dogs need tending. Have to run to town. Need to mow the lawn. Oh, wait!! I missed posting today! Hold my horses. 

It's only Monday, and already I'm starting out behind. Geez, Louise. 

Working my regular shift 10-4 tomorrow. (I start the new Monday/Tuesday 6 am to 10 am next week). Classmate dinner Wednesday. 

Sorry I'm late. It's already past 3, and I think I need a nap. I'll try to do better the rest of this week.
