Seriously...I have no idea who this woman is, but I do love how she thinks!

You know you're overtired...

~ when you can hit the snooze button without even looking at the clock.

~ when you start incorporating your alarm into your dreams.

~ when you set your alarm for 5am, but don't manage to get up until 6:20.

I really hate having to get up before the sun!!

Colors of Fall

I have always loved the colors of fall. Especially at that turning point when some trees still bear some green and the array of colors is the greatest. Some areas around here are starting reach that point. I've been meaning to get out and play with my new camera to see what I can capture. Today wasn't the sunniest day...but maybe that's good. It made for some really fall-like photos.

Here are a few:


Hopefully I'll get back out for more photos before the leaves totally turn!
