I made myself another list of things to do. This one is a bit loftier than normal, I think. But as always, if I
don't complete everything on this list it is okay.

I didn’t get all the things done as planned due to the warmer than
usual weather last month. Usually this
time of year we are in the cooler days of fall.
The trees have just begun to turn and aren't dormant yet so pruning and
cleanup has been put on hold. Since our
garden is still producing I haven't cleaned up and prepped the garden beds for
winter yet either.

| Still blooming in October |
Our busier than normal schedule made it so I haven’t been able to
sew or craft anything for awhile either.
But soon I plan to get busy and make up for lost time.
