Happy Fall Equinox!

What a weekend! Spent Saturday at the university watching us get our butts kicked. *sigh* We managed to avoid the high-sugar, high-carb tailgating though there were some biscuits and gravy that smelled divine. Must stay on track!

Sunday was spent cleaning the yard and prepping for the cold season. Last weekend we split the oak rounds and this weekend I stacked all the wood while hubby mowed the yard. My back is whining about all the bending and lifting but it feels good to look out and see all that fire just waiting to burn. Got it stacked and covered just in time too, right after I came in the house to wash up it started raining.

It is now officially fall so we unpacked the Fall/Halloween decoration box. Kiddo was amazed at all the lights and had a blast helping hang them up. The house is looking very bronze and copperish-I love it! From now till the Winter Solstice is my favorite time of year, with the warm days and cool nights, the trees changing color, Halloween and Thanksgiving and Solstice to look forward too.

Today is a cool, drizzly-gray day and occasionally the breeze kicks up a little cloud of bright yellow leaves. I've got kiddo down for her nap and the house scrubbed; now to figure out dinner, do some homework and decide whether to chance taking a walk to the library. Ahhhhhhhh I LOVE FALL!
