October. Really?

Hello, everyone,

Are you as bewildered as I am that we're in the tenth month of the year? How on earth can this be? On the other hand, that makes it officially all right to start fall decorating, so here goes. I was gone a good while today and worked on the vacuum cleaner once home again, so this is a very modest effort.

It's always good to start at the front door, don't you think? Meanwhile, off in the dining room, the terrarium on the buffet got a seasonal face lift:

The tall glass jar holds acorns and there is other material on the floor of the container. 

Raffia, seed pods, a wicker ball and a few berries. Not much, but it's a start.

Take it easy.
