Good Morning, y'all! I've missed the past two weeks. I was out and about last Monday, so I didn't get a chance to sit down and type a post up. We've had a busy weekend. We had family over for a cookout and bonfire on Saturday. Church and Sunday school on Sunday. After class, I went to lunch with my sister and ran a few errands with her. It was nice to spend the day together. I hope y'all had a wonderful weekend.
Let's get on with Happy Homemaker Monday with our beautiful hostess Sandra from Diary of a Stay at Home Mom. Be sure to stop in and say hey there.
The Weather~
Fall has officially arrived! The nighttime temps have been in the 50's. The windows are open and the fall breeze is so refreshing. The leaves here are starting to change and have been swirling in the wind. The sun is setting earlier and it just feels like fall!

Thursday~ Partly Cloudy, 65*

As I Look Out My Window~
I see a few hints of yellow and red. The Maple, Oak, and Dogwood trees have started to change color. There's just a hint of color in the woods. In a few weeks, the woods will come alive with shades of yellow, orange, and red. It will be stunning. It amazes me the beauty God surrounds us with.
Right Now I Am ~
I'm typing up this post. I'm waiting for the towels and shower curtains to finish in the wash, so I can hang them up outside to dry. I just finished the grocery list, since I'm heading to the store tomorrow.
Thinking and Pondering~
A few personal things that I'm hoping will resolve themselves. I'm also thinking about how I need to get out my fall clothes and put away the summer clothes. I think our tank-top weather is gone.
How am I Feeling~
Not too bad. My allergies have gone away. I've started exercising again, so I'm a little sore but overall feel good.
