October Winds

It's October and I'm lovin' it. I love it that winter is just around the corner. I love it that we are back to schooling. I love it that the weather is cooler and it's time for flannel sheets. I ♥ my bed any ol' time but I really love it in the fall and winter seasons. I unearthed my sheets and my down comforter and so they would smell all fresh and lovely, I washed the sheets and hung them on the line. I hung the comforter on the line to air out too. I sure appreciate that I have a covered patio because that allowed me to put my clothesline there and I line dry laundry rain or shine. I didn't used to avail myself of my clothesline in the fall but I am doing it this year. In fact whenever the wind is a blowin' I feel like I'm squandering an opportunity if I don't have some laundry out there. Anywho, my cozy flannel sheets are on my bed, my down comforter is tucked into my denim duvet cover, October winds are blowing, and winter's on it's way. Life is good.

I love when my sheets and blankets have been hung outside to dry.

I'm new to your blog, found my way through Rocksinmydryer.

I'll be back.

Thats funny! I just decided today to get out the flannel sheets, mine smell nicely of cedar so I decided not to hang them outside this first time. I like the wash towel over the door idea, my daughter did that at our house several years ago and they are still there today;-) By the way, I don't remember the password for 'grandma-to-nine' and besides that is soon to change:-)

BTW, Blogland, my mom's Grandma To Nine title changing soon has NOTHING to do with me! I have two sisters that are preggers....

Yes, it is!!! I'm "Amen"-ing over here!

Love the idea of airing and drying laundry on the covered porch - how great is that!

I'm happy that you are *happy*!

Mmm, My line has been put away for about a year now. This makes me want to put it back up! I found you through Frugalmom's blog, noticed you were a fellow homeschooler and thought I'd pop in for a visit!
