Autumnal Bliss

Aaah...I love Fall! The leaves are so pretty, the air is crisp and cool and when the sun is shining it feels like all is right with the world! I had a great weekend with my "Fourever Friends". We went to Nona's cabin in WI. It was a bit chilly, but we managed. We spent a lot of time just hanging in the dining room talking about...well, nothing specific and everything in general. Had a bit of an issue with the furnace Saturday night (it stopped working). But we had help and made a roaring fire in the fireplace that pretty much kept the cabin lukewarm (around 58 when we finally rolled out of bed). Then in the morning, it was like a miracle and the furnace worked again! Go figure!

But all this fun also meant a lot of eating that I shouldn't have done! Ugh! Nona likes to provide lots of sweets and delicious croissants. But isn't that what friends are for? And this coming weekend I am going to be with my sisters which means more eating, shopping and talking!! Life is good!

The bad part is that once I returned home I had a letter from unemployment. As I expected, they screwed up again! They required that I re-register and so I did. Now they are stating that I made twice as much as I did last year (I think as a result of re-registering)! So - that entails another lengthy conversation with someone to correct this. It's as if being unemployed was my job because it takes a whole lot of time and energy to get it to work out right!! So that'll be my task for the week!

I hope everyone had a great weekend and enjoyed the weather! I also hope that this weather holds out for at least one more weekend so that my sisters and I can enjoy it together!!
