#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream

I have been younger in October
than in all the months of spring...
~W.S. Merwin, "The Love of October"

Today I needed a rest from a long walk so I worked in the yard picking up sticks and there are plenty of sticks to pick up. I really enjoyed my session working with my friend on her memoir. Special time, creative time. Rest of the day spent doing errands, getting hair done, some shopping, some prepping for parties. I bought a cart full of pumpkins and flowers to arrange, sunflowers and gourds. Now, I will be happy if Wave does not break the stems off my big pumpkins as he did last year by rolling them over off the steps. A nice chat with Franci who will be on her way home tomorrow. Home in time for Wave’s birthday party.
