A Festive Autumn

I’m working on a color work pattern that I have designed?! I haven’t seen the design anywhere else online, except my webpages!

I’m pleased with it so far. I may publish this as my first color work pieces. I’m not sure what I will do with it.

The pets are happy and healthy. Ned is starting to get sleepier. R2 and Freckle are starting to be less active too. Only June Bug and Sasha are still playing and boisterous!

Autumn’s foliage has started to show in my neighborhood.

The cold weather hasn’t really happened here yet. We’ve had one or two cold snaps, but nothing that major.

I can’t decide which I am looking forward to more Thanksgiving or Christmas! It’s become our holiday tradition to visit Erick’s family at the holidays.

They are good people, as people go. However I can’t say I am excited to see the children. Children of all ages make me nervous and uncomfortable. I would rather be home with our pets.

I like the idea of children. Children are some of my favorite characters in literature, but in real life they are just too nonsensical and unpredictable. And most children don’t like me that much. I’m too “something” not all of them put it into words. But the nicest “compliment” I get from children is usually “you’re weird.”

And I guess I just proved myself wrong. There is nothing nonsensical or unpredictable about that assumption. I AM weird, and that’s the way I like it. Because what would the world be like without weirdoes?
