But, even though it remains warm (and even a little humid some days - gross!) my brain has gone all blackberry bushes and acorns. Actually my brain has gone all exhausted and useless! That's right - more schooling for me. All done online this time, which is both wonderful (lots of flexibility) and a huge challenge (discipline? what's that again?).
ANYWAY. When I am not working or doing homework I am (naturally) searching for lovely fall images online. In doing so I discovered a series of childrens books that I somehow missed when I was little: Brambly Hedge. It is really sweet - and everything I always loved in picture books: a whole warren of tiny houses and rooms inside of trees and hillsides full of mouse-people and mouse-sized furnishings. Oh, the detail! I will certainly be putting a few of these books onto my Christmas list.

**Update to add: When I posted this I had completely forgotten where I originally found this wonderful series. Since then I've rediscovered the source. A little bird told me.
Haha, I'm with you, I have all these lovely fall outfits I want to wear to school, I find myself cursing the warm weather, then feeling a bit guilty. ;)I want to walk in the park in my cashmere sweater and watch the leaves fall!
ReplyDeleteFall clothes are my favourite. I have way more of those than anything else, but it's such a short season here! Even now the temperatures are dropping so low that I have to put away the cute jackets and light sweaters in favour of the heavy winter coats and the thick woolen sweaters. Sigh.
