37. Never was a day more aptly named
Wed Sep 19, 2012, 11:48 AM
Sep 2012

I having either an out-of-body, or an out-of-mind experience.

The grandpuppy is here, and I don't know why. I can't remember saying he could come. Maybe my mouth is running off without me?

And there were patches of frost on the roofs this morning! There are no peaches in the farmer's market any more! There was no cauliflower, still. Fewer than half the vendors were there, and almost no customers.

I'm not ready! Summer can't end now, just when the temperatures were getting tolerable!

I did start sorting through wardrobes--deciding to do a good winnowing this year. Stuff accumulates to the point where I can get rid of things bought out of necessity for SOMETHING, ANYTHING because I've finally got enough of styles that I like....

Oh, well. Onwards, if not upwards.
