In between the rains...

we did get outside before lunch time...
there was a very stiff breeze...
and I loved it...
lots of moss on the old tree this year...
the rain beat down the soy beans pretty good last night and this morning...
this is growing across the street and it is so pretty and smells really good...
it has completely covered 2 small trees...
Bebe, the wonder dog...
we worked on this yesterday...
there's a grape vine growing up the trellis...
and I want it to grow all over this rack...
and then in the spring...
I am planting coffee cans and will have them filling the shelves...
my DH dropped and broke my wind chimes...
but you know me...
I don't throw it away...
I will reuse it next spring somehow...
the leaves are everywhere...
more every day...
see the fly?...
bonus with the brick photo...
this is the view everytime I come back inside...
so full of color...
it just makes you smile...
the table is covered with plastic...
and leaves and pots...
if this doesn't scream fall...
have a great evening...
we are having pancakes for supper!...
yum...

It's a rainy kind of day...

so there's not a lot of outside time...
major grocery shopping at Kroger's yesterday evening...
10 for $10 sales are a must for us!...
we bought extra for the son that's moving out...
so there is boxes of food here...
boxes of food there...
redid the freezer to get everything in there...
took most things out of the store bags and put them in clear zip lock bags...
reduced the clutter about 50%...
so now there is room for ice cream!...
it's going to be a month moving process for this kid...
once we get the big stuff moved for him...
then we can go through and send pots and pans...
dishes and silver ware...
extra baking dishes...
Lord knows, there's plenty here...
he got out with his clothes...
computer...
and his coffee maker...
I have an old trunk he can use for a coffee table and storage...
there's a couch with recliners in both ends...
end tables and bookcase...
table and chairs...
then we need to go through the linens...
it will be his independence regained...
and another major purge for us...
and those are both good things...
have a great day!
