I’m excited this year only because I’m off work (state holiday), and no more questions! We’ve answered 8 billion questions on early voting and the ballot box. No we aren’t election officials but we are the staff that people see since the election officials are all in one room with a long line to access early voting.
I don’t expect to know results right away so I’m staying away from the news.
GTKY- Favorite thing about fall?
Sunny days when the leaves are pretty
Least favorite thing about fall?
When the leaves have all fallen and it’s cold and dark.
Favorite: gorgeous tree leaves, I also love raking dry leaves into a big pile and the romping around in them with the dog and DD. Least Favorite: gloomy rainy days and it getting dark before 5pm.
Favorite: I pretty much like all things fall and "winter" (well.. CA's version of winter anyways.)
Least favorite: Nothing I can think of? I love it getting dark earlier because I can put the kids and myself to bed earlier. We can do movie nights without having to wait so late for it to get dark.
Favorite: cooler weather, the amazing color that we get to see here in New England, jeans and sweaters, the beginning of soccer season, soups and tea in the afternoon.
Least favorite: soccer by the end of the season (I’m getting sick of soccer 5 days a week), the daylight savings shift. I don’t totally mind it getting darker earlier, but the actual day/week after kill me.
Favorite: It's New England, so fall is basically perfect here. I love the weather and in a typical year, I love all the fall activities like fairs, corn mazes, etc.
Least favorite: When early snow hits and when it gets dark early. I hate feeling like it's bedtime immediately after dinner.
Favorite: Apple orchards, pumpkins, walks and drives to look at the leaves.
Least Favorite: It's dark driving home at night and we can't really play outside with the kids during the week. The plus side though? The neighbor kids aren't over during the week nights anymore.
Add me to the staying away from the news tonight group. I think watching the play by play will undo all the work my blood pressure meds do to keep my numbers normal!
Favorite thing about Fall: cooler weather, the pretty color of the changing leaves, wrapping up in toasty blankets in my comfy chair
Least favorite thing about Fall: it getting dark so early!! AND raking leaves!! I loathe raking leaves, which is why when I redid all my landscaping I put in a bunch of flowering trees so I don't have to rake leaves anymore! High five to the landscaper guy who thought to ask me that question when helping me figure out my yard design!
Yesterday's sunset was at 4:40- ahhhhh! The day was beautiful and sunny though, so that helps but thinking OK I'm not going to take the kids to the park because it is 3:30 and will get dark soon is weird. We already had been to 1 park that day and played outside for about 3 hours.
