Winter is coming

So it's now the 12th October and the weather has definitely changed for the worse, not that it's a bad thing.  Summer looks like it's finally over so instead of heat there's the cold.

With the cold comes some luxury surprises, like warm woolly jumpers, thick coats and warm boots with thick socks; coming in after a cold day and having warm tea or hot chocolate ... Ummmm.

My personal favourite is being wrapped up warm with a good book while the rain and wind howling outside, although I also enjoy walking with my big, warm boots on, while the wind whips through my hair, it's nice.

Thinking about Christmas and it's cold enough that it may snow this year and I love watching a blizzard through the window, being happy I am indoors, although that feeling may change if I actually have to go outside!

Sometimes when it snows at night I look out the window and watch the snow settle, it's a perfect white blanket covering everything ... So smooth and soft, with nothing to disturb it ... Then the following morning it's covered with animal tracks, like a path tracing their route during the day. When I walk through the snow if I see a clear patch I will make a footprint or walk across it so my route is shown.

Thanks for reading ;0)

Its October Already

Wow I cannot believe that it’s the 1st day of October
What has happened to this year???

Its quite warm for this time of the year and I could almost think its July
As its October, for me, this is the birthday month
I am the 2nd, my sister is 14th and my mother is 27th
Its nice to give presents and see them having a good time

Personally I am not sure how I feel about birthdays anymore
When you are a child its all about the attention
As an adult, its all about the age

Weird as you seem to change less as you grow older
Same responsibilities, same job

Still time keeps ticking, so until next time
