Fall Decorations

Ruth came upstairs a few minutes ago and announced that she was making a sandwich “for tomorrow”.  Why, I asked, are you working?  (As a side note, this assumption was rather foolish of me as she works at McDonald’s and has yet to ever pack herself a lunch).  No, she replied, with a look that told me that I was the dumb one in this conversation, school starts tomorrow.

And then it hit me: it’s September and the summer is coming to a close.  Where does the time go?

But it’s not all bad.  Autumn is coming and it just happens to be my favorite season.  The leaves start to turn on the trees, the weather is cooler and oodles more bearable and then there is the best holiday of them all:  Halloween!  So it’s time to decorate the house with lovely Fall decorations in oranges, reds and browns and to dust off that old witches costume.

My Mum has always been one to pack away one season’s things and unpack the next.  She does a day of house cleaning and updating of the décor.  I’ve have always wanted to be posh enough to get the Fall plates out, like she does, but unless I actually purchase these, I’ll have a tough time doing that.

But I could definitely and quite easily get this fantastic scarecrow and the painted tin pumpkin for the door.  The cornucopias?  I could stuff them with artificial leaves and other Fall items to make a lovely table centrepiece.

Fall (or Autumn, depending on who you talk to) really is the best time of the year.

The Online Discount Mart are also having an “end of summer” sale.  Amazing deals on things that you can pack away for next Summer.  You could be posh, like my Mum.
