The first day of fall felt like summer. Even with the rain, it felt like a steam bath. I guess it's good in one way---sweating off the pounds. Yes, I still think about that and wonder why it is now so hard to lose the extra pounds. I know I have to stop obsessing about it. Yet most of the advertising time spent is spent on exercise machines (I call them torture machines) and diet products. I cringe when I think of all the time and money spent to try to get thinner. Some of it is good. We all do need to be more aware of our food intake...what we're putting in our bodies. This is especially true when you discover that most of our eggs, poultry and other food products come from unsanitary conditions. (At least that's what you hear from those who know.)
Autumn is my favorite time of year. I love the colorful leaves, the nice cool breezes and the smell of burning leaves. I still recall the time I went to a bonfire the community was having to celebrate. I wanted to bring marshmallows, but chickened out at the last minute. There is nothing to compare to listening to the fire crackle and feeling its warmth touch your face.
