The Leaves Are Falling Down

See full size imageI have a love/hate relationship with Fall.  I love the look of the leaves turning colors, the sound they make as I walk through them (swish/swish/crunch/crunch) and I love getting all the pumpkins out as well as all the other orange fall decorations. My body aches in a good way after raking and doing yard work with the family.  I love that Lincoln starts to make his yummy hot chocolate.
 I hate the shorter days of Fall.  It is dark too soon for me.  And, when I wake it is still dark.  How depressing!  Fall only makes me long to stay in bed.  To read a good book and not get up and do my chores.  I call this seasonal depression.  It is my "funk" I get into and have a hard time getting out of.  So, I have to convince myself that my day will be fun and filled with adventure.  I make myself do my chores and then I get to do something fun like papercraft or watch a movie.  I also love getting on line and looking at sites that have fall decorations.  Martha Stewart seems to love getting all ready for fall too.  Here is one of the sites I like to look at for Fall and Halloween decorations and treats...http://www.marthastewart.com/.   Let me know if you have any great decorating ideas or web sites that inspire you...
