October has arrived!

Wow!  September is gone!  Does anyone know where it went?   October has arrived and it has brought some cold weather to Ohio.  I don't mind cold weather but after a month of 80 degree plus weather this 40 something seems rather drastic.  As the old Ohio saying goes..."If you don't like the weather right now, stick around it changes quickly!"  It does.  It is what it is and I am glad for every day I have.  I have been busy making bears, primitive fall dolls and have started on a snowman.  Selling some and keeping some.  I made quite a few pumpkins too.  Decorating for Halloween is really fun.  I always remind myself I start on Christmas November 1, so down comes the Halloween decorations as soon as it is over.  Fred and I have been very busy now that he is retired.  We have been making cupboards, shelves, painting, rock mulch all the way around the house and working in the yard.  We still have a couple projects to start before the snow flies.  Never a minute to sit down and there are days I get up at 5 am or sooner and work until 10:00 pm.  If I didn't have to sleep I could accomplish a lot more.  I also watch my cutie pie grandson once or twice a week and he is a sweet treat to my week.  How fast he has grown and will be 2 in a few weeks.  Wow!  My oldest grandson will be 11 in a few weeks and that does seem unbelievable!  What a sweet young man he is!  I hope everyone is enjoying all the festivals and autumn events.  The leaves are changing and I am anxious to grab on to every leaf and enjoy the beautiful colors.  God is amazing!  He showers us with his beauty where ever we look!  I hope you enjoy October!  Love you all!
