My Personal Moments
- I’ve been commited to riding my bike everyday. The weather has been so nice, therefore there is no excuse not to! Most of the golden rod has already bloomed and left, but I found this pretty patch on my ride, yesterday! A beautiful reminder of the season we’re in.
- You may not be ready for this, but it’s 95 days until Christmas! I honestly can’t wrap my head around it. However, some stores and many on-line retailers are already advertising for early bird shopping. Did you know that 48% of consumers buy gifts before Halloween. Is that you?
- As a blogger, I should have decorated for fall a few weeks ago, but the weather has been so nice and it’s been hard to get in the mood. Just keeping it real with you! However, Big Al bought me two new fall candles and since it is now fall, they are burning! I have finally decided to embrace all things fall and also decorated my front porch.
