Fall in the townhouse...

I wouldn't really say that all kinds of things are "happening" this fall in the townhouse, because nothing has really "happened" at all. It's more about experiencing a new season in a new place, and it's got Tim and I approaching things differently.

I think that we'll actually get trick-or-treaters this year. In the condo, we decorated our door one year and got candy, since there were kids in the building, but no one came. This year, we know that there are kids in the neighborhood and we're hoping they stop by. We've got a skelly and some bone lights and pumpkins to try to entice them to our door. Then we'll pelt them with Snickers bars!

I raked leaves a couple of weeks ago, during which time, several of my neighbors came up to say "you know, we pay someone to do that" which may* be true, but they hadn't done anything the past couple of weeks that they'd been by and they certainly wouldn't have used Punkin' Bags. Still, I haven't raked since.

And the coup de gras last night was that Tim and I had a fire in the fireplace. Okay, it was a presto log, but it was still fun. It was pretty nice to sit in front of the fire and read magazines.

So far, Fall is good. Winter? Shoveling/cold/long walk to the bus stop? We'll see...
