all of a sudden, it got dark...

this was at 11 am this morning...

DH was on the computer and I was watching DIY...

and it got dark instantly...

and we stepped outside and found this...

more leaves down and notice the brown grass and bare spots...

because the wind was blowing!

finally!

and it was so cool out there...

went from 93 to 79 in the blink of an eye...

and more leaves came down and were blowing through the air...

Craig has a job this week...

but the plants, most of them, have done well...

and the dark was good...

but some of us slept through the whole thing...

bathed, fed and nappin' the day away...

We got enough rain to wet the sidewalk and that's it, but the cooler temps are what we needed most.

We are still dry here and while DH is making a run for KMR(Kitten Replacement Formula), Craig and I sat out on the loungers and I dead headed the pots while he complained about how cold it is now.  He needed a blanket and wanted to come back inside.  I told him,

"OH, WAH!  GET OVER IT!"

We got the windows open and the birds are happy.  They are singing up a storm- pun intended.

Hope the cool comes your way!

I need to get a shower before DH gets back, so more later...

and I do have my Love Is...post ready!
