Well, it's so dark out that the lights are still on and it's 9:30am!  And so far there have been three downpours since 7:30am.  Although it's almost 60 degrees, it feels more like the high 40's or low 50's.

Another school shooting with elementary children dead as well as a teacher and others in the hospital fighting for their lives.  When will we learn that thoughts and prayers will not stop these shootings...only limiting gun accessibility and eliminating the gun culture will work.  I am not against folks having guns especially for hunting but we really need to stand up and take back safe streets for everyone.

Another weekend is upon us...do you have any plans?  Before you know it, Halloween will be here with all those trick or treaters at your door and from there, it's a quick slide to Thanksgiving!  If the weather is nice, maybe apple or pumpkin picking would be a nice activity or checking out those corn mazes.

It's going to be rather cool here with the highs in the mid 50's.  If it dries off enough to work outside, I think that finishing up removing spent plants from the garden plots will be front and center.  I worked in the greenhouse earlier this week so those plants are doing well.  

I made another journal cover this week.  This one is fabric with orange strips on the front and back with batting and a green backing for the inside cover.  I appliqued a leaf unto the front...

I haven't figured out what I will include in this journal, just the cover so far.  Check back next week for the rest of the fall journal.

Short post today...lots to do.  Stay safe, be happy and enjoy your weekend...

Talk with you on Monday...
