Fall

There are leaves in my front yard. Icky, wet, soggy leaves. I'm happy fall is here because I'm hoping that means the mosquitoes will go away, but I'm not looking forward to raking leaves. We also have the attack of the killer acorns to worry about. One fell from a tree and hit Josie in the head pretty hard. I've been hearing them ding off the roof for weeks now. It's impossible to get them out of the yard so I'll spend next spring weeding for baby trees.
Last night we turned on the heater for the first time. It wasn't particularly necessary, but my toes were cold so Curt was kind enough to turn on the heater. He's always burning up so that's a big deal in our house. He drives in the middle of winter with the windows down and the ac on. Absolutely crazy!
Well, off to a 15 hour work day. Hopefully the kids are calm today. (crosses fingers)
