Sometimes... Happiness is a Temperature

Dear October,
This girl is glad to see you.
You are a great month.
Full of scarecrows and hayrides and tiny candy bars.
You may not know it, October, but you saved my life this year.
I was on the verge of leaving my family for Antarctica.
It's almost like you heard my sad little cries for relief.
And came running in with this...


(Becase my cel phone takes rockin' awesome pictures, I will tell you that says, "65." As in, degrees.)

Cue music...
So haul out the cider, put up the giant fake spider before my spirit falls again.
Fill up the plastic pumpkins; I may be rushing things, but hang the leaf wreath again now...



Well. It doesn't exactly go the same, but you get my point.

Happy First Day of October, people.

Since we live near the beach, we see lots of 'snow birds' here in the winter. Bryan and I want to be sun birds and head to Alaska during the summer - it gets terribly hot in Alabama.

I love fall too!
