It's getting ready to get cold around these parts, so I'm getting ready for winter.
Let's see ...
Garage cleared out so at least one of us can park in there - check!
Flannel sheets on our bed, nice and cozy - check!
Electric blanket on our bed, just because you can never be too warm - check!
Gloves, scarves and hats out, in the basket by the door - check!
Plastic on the windows along the west side of the house - not quite a check, I have four windows to go ...
Screen door off, storm door on - not yet
One final cutting of the grass - nope, it may have gotten away from us this year
The raking of the leaves and adding to the compost tumbler - later this week
Other things I want to do, that aren't necessarily house related:
Pomegranite jelly, round 2
Apple pie filling, round 2
Blueberry pie filling, round 1
Gathering so I have things to do (ha!) when we don't feel like going out:
Yarn, waiting to be made into dishcloths
Netting, waiting to be made into produce bags
Fabric, waiting to be made into baby blankets
Fleece, waiting to be made into winter hats
A stack of books, by the couch and by the bed, perfect companions for a cup of tea or chocolate
I'm getting ready to hunker down here - what are you doing to get ready for the upcoming cold weather season?
