Sweat Shirt Days and Colder Nights..............

I heard once that in the northern states we spend most of the year preparing for winter.

That's probably true, raising a garden, or buying at the farmer's market, canning or freezing food, cutting and stacking wood for our fireplaces, making sure our snow blower is in good shape,  winterizing our homes, cleaning our yards and flower beds.  We've had such a lovely, long fall to get the last minute things done.  But when it snows it will surely catch us with not everything done.

I am surely ready for winter in reading material with my new Amazon Fire as well as A Man Called Ove which I received yesterday.  Now I can read all winter.  I feel so rich.   I just finished The Secrets of Flight by Maggie Leffler.  Books, as you know, are funny.  Just because I love it doesn't mean you will but I thought it was really good.

Enjoy your wild and precious life.           Diane
