I am so eager for fall to arrive this year that I almost can't stand it! I want to pick apples, and wear sweaters, and drink hot chocolate (yes, I know I could drink hot chocolate now, but it tastes better in the fall!), and build a fire, and wear fuzzy socks, and hike among the red-orange trees on the trails behind the farm.
Well, today I could feel a hint of fall in the air on my tiny corner of Thistledew Farm. The air had a crisp coolness about it that made me just want to go lie in a hammock and take a nap outside. I wanted to bathe in that crisp, cool air! If I didn't have to be up at 0500 tomorrow morning, I would spend the night out there - imagine how good that would feel!
I know that the winter that follows this fall will be brutal, and difficult for me to handle, and I know that I will be whiny and exhausted and sad on those long days with no sunshine, but this year I want fall to come. And I want it now! :)
I think I'm going to go make some Caramel Apple Bars and unpack my winter clothes. Fall is on the way!

I am not looking forward to winter at all !! I do love Tennessee, I lived in Johnson city for a while and always vowed I would move back. I never did get the chance to do that. :-( My best friend now lives in Clarksville. I'll make sure to send you some of this yucky white stuff when it falls, I have a feeling it's going to be a bad winter ! Oh, love the white hummer, that's beautiful !
Lisa,
I know what you mean, but I want fall to come even if it means the winter is close behind! Of course, when it gets here you'll see my whining about it - I'll probably even whine in my posts, so you can remind me to look back at this comment!
I'll make note of that lol I'll just make sure to send you some snow when the whining starts lol
Okay, okay! Uncle!!!! Don't send the bad weather and I'll try very hard not to whine! LOL
