First of all, thanks to everyone who took the time to read and comment on the last post. Your support warms my heart. Last fall was hard, but we're in a good place around here these days. Time heals, and life is good.

Fall is in the air. The nights are crisp (crisp enough that some of the taller plants in the garden got their tops frosted the other night!) and some trees are changing color. I'm not sure I'm prepared to let go of this summer, it was so beautiful and the weather so wonderful! I love fall...but then comes winter. Ack!
Yesterday was a fiasco around here, but it turned out to be a productive fiasco. I started out by straightening up the porch (We built a 10x10ft porch on the back entrance of this trailer, it houses the wood furnace, washer and dryer among other things.) In this process, I knocked the hose that drains the washer out of it's drain pipe. And neglected to notice. Then started a new load of wash. Then went outside.
Then noticed the water leaking from under the wall...
And came in to about an inch of water covering the floor.
So what was a simple straightening became an all out shop-vacing, washer-moving, dark, mysterious corner cleaning afternoon.
But it's all good. The dark, scary corners were cleaned, and I came out $12 richer!
The cleaning spilled over to other areas of the house, so I ended up with a rearranged and cleaned living room as well. Wahoo!
Today list is being made as I go. I was supposed to work, but my client is in the hospital so I get to enjoy another day off. Happy fall!
