Happy October All!

I celebrate the birth

of my most favorite month of the year

with

an ATC sized white ghost pumpkin card all star dusted

and happily nested in her

desert digs...

a hint of what is to come...very, very soon.

Only three days remain of our seasonal love affair

in the Midwest... 

making today somewhat truly bittersweet...;)

"Bittersweet October.

The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause

 between the opposing miseries of summer

and winter."

What a cryin'

shame we have a government shutdown in the works!!!

Come on Congress!

Get it together!!!

"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.

Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.

The winds will blow their own freshness into you,

and the storms their energy,

while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."
