Well hello there, friends!
I’m not much of a blogger these days. And I miss it. And you. Even my camera misses my blogging because somehow she has also been neglected. (And I know Dan misses finding my camera parked in dangerous and inconvenient places.) I keep thinking of things I want to tell you but never get back to the conversation.
These days have been swallowed up in schoolwork and apple preserving. These evenings taken into custody by lengthy bedtime routines and zombie miming (aka mindless staring before bed, often at a screen).
And those sound like complaints and they aren’t…not really. It’s just adjusting to this new schedule and these shorter days which always knocks me for a loop. Always – but I never see it coming.
So this new season feels like just the familiar place to snuggle in and cozy up. I may not feel ready for the snow that’s been falling today or the cold that’s frosted my garden, but I’m ready to dig in with these people I love so much. Embrace a little schedule, pull out the woollens, watch the sunsets. And wash it all down with lots of hot tea.
I’ve got so much to share – little tidbits and happenings. But for tonight I’m sticking to the tea and knitting needles…and that last piece of apple pie.
Hope your Thursday rises joyful and bright!

Tell me, what do you love best about these beautiful autumn days?
I love the coolness of it, after the summers that seem too warm these days. And applesauce, and broth, and all the other things I finally get to make and preserve now that it isn’t too warm in my kitchen to have the stove on all day. 🙂
It’s good to see you. I had the same sort of feeling going on, a few weeks ago. I got “behind” with moving, and then I couldn’t catch up, but I couldn’t seem to write about anything else until I had caught up. (I’m still not “caught up”; I might just have to do a photo dump of all the things we did in the late summer that I never found time to write about…) Anyway, I’ve missed you! xo
So jealous you are seeing snow! My day will come one day soon. Enjoy the kids and the fall season and blog when you can!!
I can’t believe we are going to do this again this year, you know I want your snow and here I sit in shorts with temperatures reaching 80 degrees! 😉
I’ve missed you in this space, but am glad to hear life is being live to it’s fullest in your world!
I know what you mean about being to busy to blog…it’s tough sometimes and I think maybe I should stop, then I think about all my bloggy friends and I just can’t. Excited to hear of your goings on in your new home.
