Gosh – that sounds inviting doesn’t it? HAHAHA No I’m not having a big fat party (although that’s not a bad idea), and no I don’t have a big date – unless you count the arrival of an old friend a “date”……..who is the “old friend”?? Why it’s Madame Autumn. At 10:59PM she officially arrives this evening. Kind of late for me to stay up and welcome her. Besides, it’s not like she’s a NEW friend anyway……………..I’ve been expecting her. We’ve had cool days for a while now so I figured she’d be here and sure enough she’s arrived!
I’m thinking it’s about time – and at my age – to begin wearing sweaters when (and if) I do go out on a chilly day………what do you think? (mouse over photos for my hilarious comments….ahem)
I actually do HAVE one sweater – that I got from my pal Easy last winter. It’s a bit too large for me BUT Mom did put it on me a couple of times and I’m afraid I’m just not “sweater-material” as I won’t walk when I have one on. It freezes me in place. Silly huh? I do love the sweater though – BLUE IS MY COLOR don’t you think???
Anyway, WELCOME MADAME AUTUMN………….we will adjust to you being here……….we will have firewood available for the first frosty night………we will begin keeping an eye open for some perfect pumpkins to carve for Sam-O-Ween……we will take endless photos of leaves (as if I don’t already have tons of them) just because it’s what we do this time of year!
Consider me READY to slide into the season………………….(mostly).
HUGS and see you tomorrow for:
Shame you don’t like the sweater as it’s a great to keep older bones warm 😉 Firewood is a great alternative though!

Hi Sundae! My Mom enjoys the Summer too but maybe not QUITE as much as your Mom. If we had beaches to shell on, and beautiful water sunsets and sunrises, MAYBE it would be harder to have seasons change. However, we’ll manage and I’ll manage WITHOUT a sweater!!! HAHA
