It has been so hectic this past week. I have been running around so much transporting people and supplies from site to site. It is so surprising what difference a week makes in the weather. Fall is really here. The days are getting shorter and the nights are getting colder. The winds around here have really been picking up and blowing everyone in my neighborhood leaves into my yard. This weekend I will finally do the final preparations for the winter to my yard. It will be a good lesson in character for the kids. Plus it will give them a chance to earn their allowances. That is of course my life isn't made more hectic by then.
