Everything is just rather blah. I have to force myself to go places to have a change of scenery and find something lovely to gaze upon. It seems MA and NY had some snow flurries, too, from other posts I've read. Still waiting for a true weather change to happen around here.

We got snow flurries on the weekend too .... brrr! I keep leaving the screen door open forgetting that the furnace is on. I hate closing out the fresh air. It looks beautiful in your area Quinn. Do you find the goats are extra playful and wild at this time of year? Our goats and horse used to be full pep and silliness when the brisk autumn weather crept in. Enjoy your day ... we're in for a week of rain and had a big thunderstorm last night!<br />WendySeptember Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-51054110778006398742015-10-19T18:31:55.574-04:002015-10-19T18:31:55.574-04:00Gotta love a goat with a sense of humour!

No windows open due to allergies (it was windy today and both Jack and I are now suffering mightily, which we expected when we went out, but it couldn't be avoided).

I thought of getting a couple of miniature goats they seem like so much fun. My neighbor had one and it was very mischievous, so I changed my mind. If I'm unable to chase a chicken what chance do I have with a goat. How ever now the girls are under foot as soon as they know i'm outside, which has it's own issues. So I'll just enjoy your's from a distance.<br />Enjoy Today<br />Toniaallthingzsewnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210000823417432398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-28795303648640453392015-10-19T08:00:03.160-04:002015-10-19T08:00:03.160-04:00Quinn, That's so funny Fern trying to play a g...Quinn, That's so funny Fern trying to play a game with you!

Next for me is moving everything away from the woodstove and filling up the parlor woodbox.<br />Sounds like we had out first frost on the same night!
