Autumn! The BEST time of the year! Anyone who's read my blog over the years knows that I'm crazy about fall and Halloween. :) I apologize for the lack of Halloween-themed icons. I'm stuck right now with the minimum and can't afford expanding the number. Trying to stay positive about my health. However, I am working on Halloween fic. What better ( Read more... )

The weather has been unusual this summer. Mostly coolish fall weather and lots of rain! Though as soon as the calender turned from August to September, we got a heat wave! We hd a few over the summer but they were of very short duration. We are currently building Noah's Ark. :)

Very strange summer for posting fic, too. Only one short story posted ( Read more... )

What is this this, you say? Why, 'tis Halloween in November! Or, hpw my Muses insist on sticking with that holiday.:D ( Read more... )

Well, it continues to be fall fun around here! :)

Enloying the brilliant autumn colors and working on Halloween fic. My multichaptered story is being steadily posted but, alas, my one-shot Halloween-inspired fic won't meet the holiday deadline. Ah, well. While I would prefer to meet the dead;ine, I don't want to post anything in a rush. I enjoy ( Read more... )

Color is exploding all over! :)

It's not peak color yet, which makes it a little later this year, but it's definitely in the works. When you're surrounded by a blaze of autumn color, you feel like you're in another world: fiery red, brilliant yellow, blazing orange. All gorgeous, all around. The ash trees are nearly done (always early turners) but ( Read more... )

Good morning! Feeling the effects of the lost hour ( Read more... )

It's Halloween Week!!! :)
Fitting Halloween weather, as the Munsters and Addams Family would say, as it'll be raining all week. We are at peak color now, delayed because of our very rainy summer.
Last month my sister treated me to lunch on my birthday at an Italian restaurant I'd never been to before. We both enjoyed baked haddock, my sister ( Read more... )

Happy First Day of Fall!!!
Oh, it's here. Chilly days and cold nights, leaves just starting to turn, gourds and pumpkins and apples popping up in farm stands and supermarkets. No Fall TV season this year, but Nature is all in. I'm so excited! :)

It's Thanksgiving Week!

If you're not traveling or cooking the feast, it can be a relaxing week before the holiday whirl really begins. The leaves are down, the days and nights are growing colder and the days are growing shorter. Time for sparkles and sequins and secrets under the tree as the nights grow longer ( Read more... )

Autumn has been here awhile. The days are cool and bright and the nights are cool, too. There are a few patches of color, but the trees won't give us the full show for awhile. The harvest will be bountiful (pumpkins, gourds, apples, etc.) and, of, course, Halloween will be approaching on stealthy feet. :) I'll be visiting Dunkin' Donuts for some ( Read more... )
