Keep your eyes open....they are the windows to your world.

| There are eyes everywhere....watching.... Creepy!!!! |
My feet are planted firmly back in the ground....Already they are itching to pull out and be free, to walk, run, skip, and jump into another adventure. I hate shoes and socks........The soul is restless..............and the feet are screaming.........did I mention I hate shoes?
Some people when they come home, peel off pieces of clothing that are uncomfortable to them. Guys will kick off the shoes, throw the pants and shirt on a chair, grab a beer from a fridge, plop down in the easy chair in their underwear, with remote in hand, while switching channels to find the current sporting event on and taking a swig of beer. (This is as close to multi tasking they can get)!!!!!! Woman, it's shoes off, comfy drawstring flannel jammies, an old shirt, cuddling on the couch with our favorite 4 legged animal(s) and/or a two legged handsome devil...........the commonality in this? The shoes get kicked off..........
I had one last day to walk around in sandals outside. Wander around the yard and see what I am going to miss until next spring and summer. All the flowers have been pulled up. The tomato plants are now mulched in with the leaves, but not before one final pick for fried green tomatoes.
There are grapes that hang on the vines that won't be picked in my neighbors yard. They hang in sadness as he recently passed away, but the birds are taking advantage of their fermented sweetness. They literally are drunk on it. It's amazing how loud they can get. Celebrating one last hurrah before the cold bears down on them, and the snow flies and it piles high.
Soon everything around will look gray, drab, and dead....this is the only time of the year I do not like. You look outside, and it looks sad and lost.

The weather is turning rapidly. The Indian Summer we have enjoyed will disappear soon. There is a storm brewing and it's heading our way................
There was one last, lonely leaf on the lawn. It seemed to be saying to me...............
