saphyria!!!! Have a fabulous 21st!
I survived jelly making and canning yesterday. Every year we do it, and every year we forget that we need more big containers and fewer jars. Most importantly, we forget how arduous the task is and how long it takes. Next year there will be plans for organized efficiency. After four years, I think we're going to actually, you know, write things down so that next year it doesn't cause scalding, exhaustion, and hysterical laughter. But even with all that, man, it's fun! And now I have seven jars of jelly for presents and such!
This October I am trying something new.eldritchhobbit does a countdown to Halloween with daily spooky posts of literature, links, polls, etc. I love this idea and Halloween so much, that I am appropriating it somewhat. I plan on posting one Halloween historical fact or one spooky word linguistic derivation per day all this spooky month. I've never posted in my journal every day, so this will be a cool thing to try. Plus, I like using my Halloween icons. It makes me giggly to think of it, so I hope it will be fun for you all to read.
It is gorgeous here today. I'm going on a long walk soon, I think, to soak in the impossibly blue sky.
