Today







It was the perfect fall day here in Ohio!
75 degrees, nice breeze, beautiful skies!
I picked up groceries and spent the rest of the day
outside working in the yard.  I planted bulbs, filled
feeders, hung a new bird house, 
and repotted a few plants, all with the help of
my furry friends that crawled out from their shady
bushes to keep me company!  That is, when they
weren't chasing leaves or squirrel watching!
It was so wonderful, I think I'll do it again tomorrow!

    1. Such a nice day...didn't get everything done so hopefully the weather will be nice tomorrow, too!
      It was a good workout, too....I'm exhausted tonight! haha.

  2. Sounds delightful. Love all the photos, especially the soap and ring one.
    We spent the afternoon clearing our our clogged garbage disposal....(Cheering) Of course it happened right before daughter in law and granddaughter are coming over for dinner...
    Think we got it working again.
    Your post is a whole lot prettier than what we have been looking at.. ugh!

    1. Uh oh....well, at least you got it to work again! We've replaced ours a couple of times over the last 29 years!

  3. What a lovely day, and you got so much done. Is that duck soap cleaning your ring? I ran errands, bought a wedding gift for another trip this weekend. Don is doing the ceremony for a gal we have known since she was born (from our former church up North)....more traveling this year than I can ever remember.

    Your cat's are so beautiful and healthy!

  5. Hi Betsy - looks to be a perfect day ... and bulb planting is always so satisfying. The garden looks a delight especially with some furry friends around to play with, cuddle with and watch over ... cheers Hilary

    1. Wonderful day
      here at my bay.
      I did find a squirrel tail all alone
      which made me let out a groan.
      Silly cats think they must hunt
      and eat anything they want. ick.

    2. Poor squirrel
      Went the wrong way and only a tail left to twirl

  11. One night I'm going to creep up and steal your swing seat!
    Only problem... I have nowhere to put it. SO JEALOUS.
    Oh yes, additional problem even in a long hot summer it gets chilly after sunset in London so not much fun sitting out. France, Switzerland yes, Ohio obviously yes, but London no. Sigh. It's whole different lifestyle.
    But today we have autumn proper with a slight frost, slanting golden sunshine and crisp air. Great! While it lasts. Could rain all day tomorrow. Who knows. Only the gods of autumn and weather.

    1. Sounds like you had a gorgeous fall day today! How interesting that you don't have lovely evenings there in London. You'd have to enjoy a swing on the rare non rainy days. haha. We're getting rain tomorrow....but we need it, so it's a good thing, I guess.
