Thanksgiving Tree in my hallway


Good morning from Fulshear, TX.  We have a lovely day here. I walked earlier and the temp was a sweet 70 degrees Fahrenheit. I cut my walk to a mile. I have an insurance webinar to attend. Ugh. I'm not looking forward to it.

I'm getting down the tree from the attic. I took the picture above several years ago. Since then, I've bought a new, fuller, bigger tree. I'll decorate it for the harvest season and then on December 1, I'll change the decor to Christmas.

Simplifying my life is my goal these days. As a former interior designer, I once went to great lengths to create a masterpiece. Not these days. Now I use leaves for fall, and poinsettias for Christmas. They fill the limbs and are easy to attach.  These decoratons are also easy to store.

What's your day going to be? We drove 3000 miles round trip between Houston and Lexington, KY. I'd hoped to see a lot of color, but we were too early.  I plan to share pictures of our trip later, but at the moment, I'm catching up.  Laundry is done. Yay! Car is detailed. Yay!  Mail is in a pile waiting to be attended to, and lots of business to catch up on. Even tho' I had my iPhone, lots of emails need to be answered.

I love to travel, but it's good to be home.

Changing of the Color



We don't get much of this in Houston.
I took the one above as we zipped by in a car. We were in New England, and all the trees should have been turning, but we went a bit too early.  It's hard to plan around Mother Nature. She comes and goes when she wants to.

I'm looking forward to a trip to Kentucky and I hope I see the beautiful change of colors.

What about you?  Do you get them where you are?

This is what we'd hoped for

Anniversary



I love dinner with my hubby. 

Did I tell you I'm not a good cook?

My mom was, but I didn't receive the DNA for it.

Anniversaries are nice. We're having one this month.

If I ever find my wedding pictures again, I'll show you what we looked like all those years ago.

I keep losing them. How can you do that, you ask?

For me, it's easy.

They are in a safe place.

One day I'll remember where.
