Days Are Getting Shorter

Just last week as my shift was coming to an end, I noticed the sun was not quite up at it's usual time. This time of year always gets to me a little but. We are not quite able to sit outside as the day draws to a close unless we wear an extra layer of clothing. Some of my fall blooms are emerging. I just acquired this Chrysanthemums flower and I'm thinking I would love to plant it in the garden. I'll have to do more research.

A few other plants seem to be thriving.

When we are not exploring outside, or venturing off to work, I keep bust by reading, drawing, and sewing!  I haven’t really sewn anything other than curtains or Halloween costumes. I’m starting to get my confidence back with my little sewing machine!

I have been dabbling in various types of masks.

3D Mask:

This one so far, I find most comfortable!

Anyway, it goes well!

Charlotte and Grisou are adjusting well to our home. Jackie has begun to accept that her little shadow might be of a more permanent nature. Everyone is eating well and giving up some space to make their new housemates more comfortable.

Charlotte’s favourite thing to do is sit outside and watch the birds.

I hope you are all keeping well. If anyone is interested in where I found the patterns for the masks, I’ll gladly share. 

Keep well and safe!
