I stopped to take a picture of sleeping geese on a pond just on the outskirts of Tongie on my way to the food pantry this morning.
As you can see, it's a lovely wintry day here.
We do expect some single digit temps this week, but as Keith reminded me this morning:
"Live in the moment". He's RIGHT.
I have someone new keeping me company now.
And someone else managed to pull his hind legs up on his new bed and get comfortable.
As far as the eye could see at Wally World, there were bins of Christmas on sale this morning. I looked through some of it, but, honestly, they put it out so early anymore that you are sick of it by Christmas.
And you don't realize how cheaply most of it is made, until it's all in a jumble like this.
Okay, I admit it. I bought two boxes of bulbs that were chocolate colored, for our fall prim tree next fall.
So guess what was around the corner?
YIKES
On to the next holiday!
I got my latest issue of GRIT in the mail this week, and there will be a Mother Earth Fair in Lawrence, Kansas this fall. Yeeha!
J and S at Cranky Puppy also wrote about this.
I am overjoyed. I have already let Keith know that I will be gone the weekend of the 12th and 13th of October next year to spend all day soaking it up. The previous fairs have been held in Puyallup, WA and Seven Springs, PA for several years, so this is a bonus for us. As MEN is published in Topeka, it's about time!
I have some chicken stuff to talk about tomorrow, so stay tuned.
