We had a frost last night which finally killed off most of my geraniums and that got me thinking about what comes next.

I’m not quite at 168…

But my book corner should last me through mid January.

I wholeheartedly agree Thomas.

A friend called the other day and said her ex had just entered into hospice care. She asked if I had any more of the small booklets I was given when my mother passed over a decade ago. Written by a hospice nurse they took the mystery out of the physicality of dying and truly helped at a difficult time in my life.
.

.
I had one more set and was happy to share them with her daughter. Nothing about losing a loved one is easy, but knowing what to expect at the end brought me a small measure of comfort.

Sunset… lighting up the fall foliage across the road.

Sure was pretty.
.

Even with those awful greenhouses blotting the landscape.

Random selfie, just because.

Lovely sunset on vibrant foliage.
And get help – you have a problem with books.

You look Mahvahalous!!
I love the fall foliage, and yes, girl, you have a plethora of books to keep you company for the long winter days.
Thank goodness for Hospice, right? I’m sorry your friend is going through this; dying is a part of living, and having some information to walk you through it is helpful.

Hospice workers are angels. I don’t know how they do it, but I’m forever grateful they do.

Beautiful fall foliage! Yes, I have a pile of books to read along with the syllabus my DIL is using for her AP English class. I’m afraid I’m falling behind!

I get a little twitchy if I don’t have an unread stack.

The book corner is welcoming and practical at the same time. It is good to have such an inventory to draw upon, especially if you get a bit twitchy without at least one stack to ponder upon for your next read.📚😉

Books in the winter? Sure. They travel well to the beach. Today we experienced our first cold front. The Temperature this afternoon is a chilly 78.

To each his own 🙂 I am done with cold weather. The Army put me in places that qualified as deep freeze death traps.

I never used to like winter but oddly enough, the older I get the more I like it..

We had our first freeze last week…luckily, we knew it was coming, and Tara picked the last of her produce.
I still say you should consider a Kindle! Look at all the extra room you would have.

Now that I am home more after no more teaching!, I do read more on my time. Sometimes I have 2 books going at once! Sometimes when I think should I still work for another year , I pick up a book, think of how much better I feel and decide no, unless a job at home is out there!

Your husband should write a post about your book-hoarding tendencies, just to try to even things out. 😉 (No judgment – I have a stack myself, though I couldn’t hope to compete with you.)

But I don’t hoard. I gather, I read, I give away.
Big difference.
