the transition to fall...

[milo82]

I sooo hate it! I miss the sun already...and don't get me wrong I loooove fall and all their colors, but the rain & the grey sky....yuck!! This week it started after we had some gorgeous days. I guess it's because we had a beautiful sunny day on Sunday and went to a house by the lake...BUT really, as soon as the weekend was over...so was the sun! The transition was too rough on me & feeling soooo un-inspired & tired the past days! I want to scrap, I want to leave love, I want be creative, I want to clean my house (uhm no I don't)...but just not feeling anything ATM!

Anyone's got a pick-me-up??? Would be sooooo much appreciated!!

I love fall, but I hate the lack of daytime and sun.

Would a shopping trip cheer you up? Maybe a massage and some relaxing time?

I just baked these two items I found on Pinterest and they are delicious:

I made the oatmeal twice now - it is sooooo good!

Rachel, I just pinned your pumpkin peanut butter bars. I'm dieting but I've been wanting to make a yummy fall treat. These look perfect!

I don't usually get excited about fall but for some reason this year is different! Not really doing anything special since we are living with my mom and can't decorate. Thinking of trying some of the soup recipes I saw in the soup thread. I'm not liking it getting dark earlier though.

I wonder if my son will eat the oatmeal if he knows it has cinnamon toast crunch on it ; )

This time of year is probably my favorite! I love the beautiful change of colors and the scents! WOW!
