It was a post for both good and bad news yesterday, wasn't it? I found, when my dad was failing, that writing about what was going on helps. And it does. It helps me process it all. . I do have to enjoy the good things in my life.
The decor is amping up!
Isn't she a hoot, scarecrow girl ↙?! She needs a name. I tied her to the wall ornament. I know the November winds will come.
I painted the birds climbing the wall ↘. They were a gift!
I did my transplanting. Taking two lilacs and one maple, that had begun growing in the front garden, I plunked them on either side of the bench in the front yard.
One of my Autumn chores is to remove the ivy from the railing, and then wash the railing. I can't start yet! There are too many critters sheltering in it.
Like these, I think these are Yellow Woolly Bear Moth caterpillars. They began in spring being yellow.

Then there is the red caterpillar with black spikes: Giant Leopard Moth caterpillar. It is looking for a place to stay over winter.
I put it in a container, to take it to a safer place, then forgot about it. I couldn't find it until I moved the towel.
We got out of the house today. We are still looking for a new topper, sink, and faucets for the bathroom. It is a process. We took off for Carleton Place, driving through town. Perth is usually known for its colours, with all the maples.
There seemed to be Algonquin students doing to video work. (Note the colour of the tree.)
Do you think Perth needs a ring road? The trucks are just too big for a town that used to only have horse and buggies in 1816 during its founding.

What the heck, squeeze left? New hydro poles.
Look at the colours!
This is a little section of a county road that goes through a small town! I guess drivers forget that it is
STILL 60 KM/H!
The decisions are the problem! We were really tired after looking at taps, counters, and sinks. Leftovers, and we put our feet up.
We've a new show we are watching: Professor T. It is about a quirky professor with OCD, is on the Autism Spectrum, has a whacko artist mother, and consults for the UK police. It is based on a Belgium crime show of the same name. After the first show we warmed up to it!
