While walking to the mailbox, I noticed my snapdragons are adding some vibrant fall color to the flower beds.

Winter Prep List ~ Dishwasher Detergent
Yesterday I gave my master bathroom a good cleaning, but the tub was left to scrub today. I made sure I had porch time. I also got the bills paid and propane ordered, so a big cup of coffee was needed this morning.
My coffee cup today is actually pink with white polka dots. The early light in the kitchen makes it look different.

Fillin' Up ~ Dried Leaf Art
Sunday morning consisted of more wood splitting and stacking. It feels good to gain on that job. We are trying to get all the wood inside the barn split first, before we tackle the monstrosity pieces again. We are getting another tree soon, and that wood needs a place to dry inside the barn. I'm excited to get a bit ahead on our supply.

Tuckered out
Camping? Well, after a full day of splitting wood, we were too tuckered out to mess with the camper, ha ha! We did sleep well, even if it wasn't in the good ol' outdoors.
Truth be told, I think if we put up the camper early, and then did the hard work, it would have worked. However, that wonderful morning chill is back today and I would have not wanted to leave.

Routine ~ Pink
Yesterday I watched the sunrise whether I had intended to or not. It's darker out now, and the sun rises later now.

Sunshine
Sparta and the ladies enjoyed a long day outdoors yesterday. The sun was shining and it was just perfectly cozy. No dreary skies or fall cold drizzle.
