I walked the dogs in the rain this morning. It wasn't unpleasant. It's a very gentle rain, and we had the dog traipsing paths to ourselves. I think I've adjusted to fall now. I love the Halloween decorations, and the children's enthusiasm for costumes. I used to love the candy, too, especially candy corn and bite size 3 Muscateers and Snickers. Sigh. No more candy for me. One daughter's birthday is a week away, and the other's is in December (as is my son-in-law's) and there is Thanksgiving. I tore out a bunch of receipes from a magazine, and am contemplating green beans with dates and a new cranberry relish with many strange surprises in it. I'm definitely getting in the mood.
Today I'm sewing hair on a cloth doll I bought for my granddaughter, then mailing packages and doing other errands. We've gotten to the last disc on WWII, and may watch it tonight. Our older son is coming for dinner, so I'm going to take more care than usual with dinner. This diet has so far made me focus more intently on food, and that is not helpful. I'm trying to see the thrill in broccoli, which I had with an egg for breakfast, but it ain't doin it! The struggle goes on!
