Good morning! It's a lovely fall morning. The temps have dropped quite a bit since the weekend, and it will only be in the mid 60s today. That's still not so bad. It's a mostly grayish morning, and might be showery later; but they're still saying we need the rain, so it's all goodl. :) I still have flowers blooming (that don't know it isn't summer any more! LOL!) ... my little pond garden is a riot of color right now! Most of my mums are covered with blooms, plus there's marigolds and camelias and some other things I don't even know names of.
Yesterday was mostly lazy, recovering from Saturday! LOL! I did get laundry caught up; and I did a few very small organizing projects. I even got a few steps done on a small sewing project. Hopefully the rest of this week I can get sewing done, and a few small things "out of the way". Next week is decorating week!! :)
Today is "Mule Day" ... "Labor Day (New Zealand)" ... "National Day (Austria)".
