Saturday

there is nothing better than to wake up on a Saturday morning and KNOW...the alarm is not going to go off and you don't have to go to work. No rush to be anywhere, no freezing at the bus stop. Instead, you will enjoy a cup of good coffee, sitting on your couch and looking out the window at the cold morning sun of an October day.

My boyfriend told me today that fall is one of his favorite seasons...not that you have much choice in UK...there is chilly weather and loads of rain...and then there is cold weather and rain again :)

But still, come to think of it and leaving cold aside, there is nothing like the smell of fall, the crispy air... the sound of cracking leaves under your feet...the pastel colors...and if it rains so what? you close the garden door and watch the rain drops trickling while you hold your warm coffee mug and cuddle in warm blankets.

it kind of reminds me of childhood, the first few days of school the chestnut trees aligned on each side of the road. I can smell the air, see the leaves color and feel the cold rain on my chicks. And all around me, loads of happy children chattering away on their way to class. it was ages ago...but feels like yesterday.

I promised myself I would do some gardening tomorrow, plant a few yellow daffodils and white tulips. This should be a first :) the only gardening experience I ever had was weeding my grandmother's flower beds when I was a kid. and i wasn't any good because i lacked the necessary patience. So this is advantageous and exciting! hope it won't rain too much. this would definitely kill my enthusiasm.
