Right in the middle of fall and there is no better time of year. Greatest cool dreary weather, all my cozy sweaters, and an abundance of apple and squash. Plus it is getting dark out sooner. Many may frown about the dreary colder weather and darkness, and that is ok, but I love it and you should try to too cause it’s happening whether you like it r not.
The week was good, if not somewhat overwhelming in some senses. (The world is… well lets just hope for that this time next month things will be a little less crazy as fuck.) Camping was great, the hike/ rock climb up a mountain was spectacular, and the nights sleep was steady and sound.
Back to the world, things were done. News and all the bullshit if the world just stuck me in a mood so I have been low grad crank just about everyday just for the mere fact I am so sick of so much. You feel me? I think we all are. Anyway, my people were good though. The mr and Judah finished up the porch siding, I worked on pots and tried to cleaned an get organized for winter pottery studio (much colder then summer pottery studio). I made donuts, Sophia made me coffee, I ate lots of apples and pumpkins, tried to get as much time outside of the indoors as possible, and rented another 8 books from the library. One of the highlights of my day is crawling into bed by 7 with book and tea and reading until I fall asleep. I am officially a really old lady and I am 100% ok with that. It makes me happy.
Yesterday we took the boys and Barbs for a nice hike yesterday to give them a taste of fresh air and to see what a mountain looks like. Ha! That was good fun, those youngins getting all tuckered out and complaining of hunger. I guess the mr and I are just beasts and can hike the good hike no problem. (Yes, that is me flexing out hiking abilities) But yeah, not a lot
Other then the norms, I got nothing new. And that is fine by me.
I am so so ready for the camping and being in woods today, even if I am feeling a little possessive of the outdoors. It is Indigenous Peoples Day weekend and which means there will be more people out camping and for some reason I feel like I own the outdoors right now and want people to stay away.🤷♀️ Don’t get me wrong, I am all about other people camping, just not when I am around. But I should just shut my mouth because it will be good no matter because being in the woods is always good. Unless it is not, then it really is not….
