Hello helooo!
My favorite time of year is here.
Only thing is, we are in an extended summer so it's hard to convince me that it's October.
Still, I'm playing with pumpkins and having some fun.
I've been very busy with real world things.
Like endless classes to keep up my license from my previous career.
I've kept it going for 15 years, no sense it letting it lapse now.
It's good to have in your back pocket.
But the every two year courses are brutal (boring and lonnng) and as you know, I'm rotten and don't like the real world.
I'd much rather play and sip tea and paint and draw and have a jolly ole time.
Good news is, I'm done until 2018, woo hooo!
So, I hereby proclaim full Halloween immersion beginning now.
I intend to watch endless spooky movies and live in a pumpkin the next week and a half.
I have so many fond memories of childhood Halloween.
It was like a block party of costume magical goodness.
All the family members got involved, it was so much fun.
Every house was decorated, everyone joined in.
And, it was safe.
Like a giant harvest festival of dreams.
That's pretty much why I love Halloween so much.
All the good memories and enchantment of it all.
It was such a wonderful time in my childhood, so I adore it.
My dining room has been very pastel the last month.
Probably because it's so hot still, that the autumn transition has not yet taken place.
I wanted autumn fun but adapted it to hot days colors.
However, it's time to spookify things a bit.
Soooo, here I go!
Into Halloween goodnesssss.
Lots of folks have asked about the Halloween party this year.
I know, it's really kind of like, were out of time?!?
Ooops!
Let's do the time warppppp!
I've just been so busy and I'm still tending garden full time because of the heat.
I feel like I'm in an odd time warp of endless summer.
I'm ready for a vacay from summer.
I'm soooo excited for chilly days to find us desert dwellers somehow.
It's time for a break from the land of endless sun.
I'm melttiiiinnnggggg (insert cackle).
Can autumn find us before the 31st?
I sure hope so!!
Love, Vanessa
