Well, will hopefully get some clearing out done (read: a tiny bit) in the front garden after dinner. Figure if I do it bits at a time, the job won't be overwhelming. It's been so dry, the black-eyed Susans are sad-looking and the echinacea is as well. I want to cut them to the ground and let the obedient plants have some room. The Susans have so taken over and what was attractive, has gotten way overgrown. Like my own life, I want some space...that mood is trickling down into what I want inside and outside of the house.
Guess it's sort of Fall Cleaning, versus Spring Cleaning. Mental room sounds nice as it does in my 3-dimensional world. And with my new Yankee Candle Pumpkin Spice candles burning lately, I'm ready for a change of season. Seems true with many of us. :)
Think I might take the kids to the library tomorrow. My last pile was a bit stinky, not my taste, and I want to find some new titles to read. Would love to find a new author along the lines of Rosamunde Pilcher/Elizabeth Goudge/Miss Read/Dodie Smith/D. E. Stevenson. And, yes, I'll take suggestions. Please.
