Fall is here!…..sort of…..

My energy is slowly, repeat…slowly, returning. I am still tremendously overwhelmed but now that there is some relief from the heat, I am feeling the tingle of creativity trickling in. Odd how simple things as outside temperatures have an effect on creativity. It does for me that is for sure! Now, to see where I can fit a little painting in. Surely there is a spot in my day…somewhere. Maybe after my 10:30pm gym runs?

Bah, it will go somewhere. All I know is that the mornings are crisp and cool and I can take the baby out for a walk at a normal time. I even feel like doing a bit of yard work. Which is awesome because there was some serious garden neglect going on this summer.

Fall is here and I’m ready to don on my favorite sweater and go buy spice candles and carve punkins!

Much Love,
Wenders

There are three things I have learned never to discuss with people:  religion, politics and the Great Pumpkin.

It is rainy and beautiful today.  The mums are gorgeous and the pumpkins are blissfully unaware of their impending Halloween makeover. Until then, they are  basking in the front flower bed spreading their fall cheer.  Parker has been ready to carve “those suckers” for days, but I am always sad to make pretty pumpkins into growly goblins so I put it off as long as possible.  I will  eventually give in and help carve them, however, because I loved fresh roasted pumpkin seeds more.
