The day started out warm, then turned cooler. We had some of this (tomatoes ripening on the vine)...
...some of this (nasturtiums blooming in the garden)...
...time to enjoy this (dinner on the deck)...
...and at the same time, we had this (gold, orange and red leaves on the branches)...
...and this (leaves on the ground).
I am still having trouble easing into autumn. Today I had a very "grown up" moment (I thought it was!). I was outside and heard a flock of geese in the sky. I looked up and sure enough, they were in V formation, coming from the north, heading south. I normally would have thought, "there they go, leaving me here with this cold weather..." or some such pathetic thought. But today when I saw them, I thought, "Be well. Have a safe trip. It's a wonderful day for it. I'll be here, keeping this place safe for you while you're gone. I look forward to seeing you come back." That kind of thinking keeps me going and gives me purpose.
