Yeah, yeah, long title. Deal. 🙂 I just didn’t want to have a billion blog postings, so I am going to squish a bunch in here. 🙂

So, I will get a couple of photos of the leaves every year, but not too many, since my poor Floridian blood just can’t take it to be outside for too long. 🙂 For your viewing pleasure in the warmth and comfort of your ?desk, I bring you:

And I can use all the prayers that I can get right now. He graced me with his presence until the following day, when I could photograph him. Shortly after I took his picture, I came outside again and he was gone — just like that.
Final topic: here’s a picture of my bed (now, don’t get all excited, I’m not inviting you in):
We got this comforter as a wedding present, so now that it has outlasted the marriage, it is showing signs of wear:

See how amazingly, uncharacteristically girly it is? But, it makes me smile in it’s optimistic, girly way.
