Spent a gloomy afternoon crafting

Brisker days this past week, feel like Fall is nearing too soon, and I’m dreading the end of Summer. The carefree days, and weekends spent enjoying the great outdoors as long as the sunshine allows us. Instead of focusing on the negative and how much I don’t enjoy the cooler months, I’m learning to appreciate the change of seasons as Mother Nature’s cycle of life. Although there isn’t much the eye can see, below in the soil, much life is living and thriving. I guess nature goes into hibernation much like bears do, but I’m not ready to do so. And even though I can’t walk too normal yet, there’s much to enjoy this beautiful weekend. Whether I’ll got to the farmer’s market, a nice dinner, or simply relax in the garden prepping my work for colder months, I hope your weekend is just as lovely.
