Weather here has turned to fall. Temperatures have dropped and last night the clouds rolled in with flashes of lightning and claps of thunder. It's still really cloudy, not very warm and pretty breezy. All too soon it will be time to retreat inside for the winter. Good thing I get kitties in my lap for warmth.

Love me some kitty whiskers










I am feeling motivated to cook now that my kitchen won't spontaneously ignite from the heat, I made a couple of quiches yesterday with our fresh eggs and today I'm making fresh tomato soup. You can read more on them here once I update.


We here are enjoying the remainder of any nice weather while we can, I leave the back door open and the animals all wander out as they please.

This weekend there is a folk fest going on in our back yard sponsored by the church on the corner. They set up tents and booths and for three days it's food, music and fun. Thankfully they have a curfew and don't keep us up all hours. I rather like the big central tent they set up, it's rather like a colorful circus tent.

As far as my ickyness mentioned in my last post, it became a hideous cold and another massive tooth infection in two new teeth. However, I'm human again, thank the stars. Another round of antibiotics has taken care of the newest tooth infection and allowed my immune system to focus on clearing up the cold. I much prefer being healthy since I am one of the most pathetic people you will encounter when I'm sick. Tomorrow I go in for a root canal on one of the troublesome teeth, then I just have to figure out how to fund two more...*sigh* never a dull moment.
