Peaceful Day
This is our back shed. It is covered with scarlet runners. This is only half of the leaves the rest fell off in the last frost. I have the same thing on the front of the house. I love their brilliant colors. And boy, do they grow!!!! I have to hack them back during the growing season. Really having a quiet day. Doing some washing for clothes I’m taking on the cruise plus the regular stuff. Even took time out to read the paper, that’s rare. I find the news brings me down so often I am happily ignorant of current affairs. I have actually got all your journals, at least to the present moment all done. Yeah!!!Didn’t do the tan or gym today as it is closed due to the funeral. That’s okay, I’ll do my treadmill later and I am already quite dark.I started to pack yesterday. And I was trying on clothes that previously did not fit and now they do. Maybe I said this yesterday. I’ll do a little more today. I also want to go on a search for a portable hand steamer for travel. I’ll try wal mart first. Surely, somewhere will have such a thing. I use to have one but it wore out.I just got a telemarketer call, the same one I got yesterday and I told them I was not interested. So I told the guy I had received the call and I was not interested. He starts the but, but.... I got rude and emphatically sated I was not interested and hung up. Usually I don’t answer them but occasionally, one slips through! Pain in the !@#!!!!Well, I’m going to close and head off to do a few chores. I have a hair appointment at 1:00 and the boys at 2:30. I’ll catch you all later. Debbie

I don\'t watch the news often for the same reason as you. It can get really scary or really sad with all the things that go on in out society!!
The scarlet runners are beautiful. It\'s such a pretty time of year if you can keep your mind off of what comes next!!
I hope you find a steamer, your departure is close approaching!! How exciting!!
I hope you have a good day and the boys behave themselves today.
Take care,
hugs Cathy
One of the blessings of not have television reception, don\'t see the news and since it would be a five mile round trip to get the daily paper we don\'t do that either.
When things work out right I can go for days happily not knowing what is happening in the rest of the world, much less stress that way and I only have to deal with my home grown problems.
Love the reds, we don\'t get enough of that up here and it\'s nearly all short stuff growing lower to the ground so you have to really look for it.
Have a peaceful week-end. I love your beautiful leaves on your house and shed. Enjoy your cruise. Maybe my daughter and I will go to a few yard sales tomorrow. Fall colors are so beautiful. Life is so hard anymore. Just dealing with family issues are very hard. Big Hugs of LOve Suzanne
Is that Virginia Creeper? It is beautiful. Glad you had an easier day today. I never read the newspaper and try to avoid the news although I did watch the debates last night for president. A joke. I\'ll miss you while you are on your cruise or is it I will be jealous. LOL Naomi xo
