Happy Autumn!

So, the goal this year was to take the kids to the pumpkin patch and all that mother of the year type stuff.
Well, we didn't get around to it okay? AND the mums and pumpkins looked soOooOOOoo good at Wal-mart that we couldn't turn them down at 2 for 8 dollars! We also bought some pumpkin spice coffee and APPLE CIDER @ the fresh market...AKA my FAVORITE store ever. I mean, even though we don't have a LOT of extra money right now...it is good to buy expensive coffee ..that's splurging to me. It really is.
Not a lot has changed..except for the weeks just seem to get more and more wild. Parker is still getting up in the wee wee wee hours of the morning and sneaking sometime into our room. Don't worry, he must make a few trips because he brings his Thomas the Train pillow, his blanket, his tiggie and usually a train or car of some sort. I've thought about locking our bedroom door. And, we've discussed it. BUT we wouldn't be able to hear if something were to happen. It doesn't REALLY bother me until he wakes up Seth or starts doing cartwheels over my almost lifeless body in the morning circa 5:30am. Any advice or recommendations in this area would be much appreciated. Oh yeah..AND the state fair starts in another week. I mean, what are we going to do with ourselves? I simply cannot tell you how different this fall is for me. Maybe the stores have just hyped it up. But, I just cannot contain myself. The colors, the crunch of the leaves, the fragrances, the mulling spices and apple cider, pumpkins, scarecrows, and flavored coffees and creamers? Oh dear...if anyone knows where it's like this all year, please tell me so I can move ASAP-a-rappa.
Crunch from my house to yours!!

About Me

My photo
Welcome to my blog. It's a dedicated place for my book reviews, criticism, and love of all things bookish. I am a mom of 4 busy kids that uses reading as my, "thing." I find that reading books turns off all (okay, mostly all?) of the noise of my world and lets me get away for a bit. Reading helps me escape the reality of the piles of laundry that will never be done, the dust bunnies that I swear will one day grow legs, and the emails and outlook calendar that occupy my life Monday- Friday during working hours. Reading is therapy for me and always has been. I've always been a big dork, introverted, creative, and reflective. If I won the lottery tomorrow, I'd probably open up a used bookstore with my standard poodle somewhere on the side of the mountain and surround myself by others who enjoy passing their time reading. Until then, I'll keep on keeping on. And, I'll settle for reading when I can. Which, I try to fit in as much as possible. Cheers to your busy life and mine, doing the best we can, as often as we can.
