Autumn Take Over

It's that time of year again.

Football has taken over my Sunday afternoon TV, the crock-pot is emitting the wonderful smell of beef stew, and the husband is laying on the couch like a frog on a log. All the sights and sounds of Autumn are falling into place.

There, I just heard another acorn hit the roof and bounce to the ground.

Soon enough, the leaves will all be red and gold. Then Joe will be leaf blowing the driveway on his days off. I'll be shopping for pumpkins to decorate the front yard... all the while hoping the deer don't eat them before I get to take a pretty picture of our black cat with the aforementioned pumpkins. An extra blanket will make its way onto the bed as the heavier curtains go up on the windows. Short sleeve shirts will be replaced by long sleeve ones and even a hoodie on the more brisk days. If the trend of the past couple years continues there will be frost warning the first week of October and snow for the second.

Yep, it's that time of year again. *smiles*
