Fall is here

BRRRR!!!
I have challenged the rest of the family to dress warm and bundle up. Can we make it until November 1st without turning on the heat? I doubt it. Maybe October 15th!?!?!
As we walked the paper route this morning, true signs of fall were in the air. Leaves, walnuts and buckeyes peppered the streets. We were so happy for all the squirrels who are busy storing up for winter. Speaking of squirrels---- We have a beagle (Molly) who loves to alert us to all intruders in her yard. There is a squirrel who travels across our neighbors fence every morning about 8. Well, Molly really is upset by this and apparently the squirrel is not so happy with her howling because Monday morning the squirrel stopped on the fence, looked right at ds and me through the open window and began speaking squirrel to us. NO KIDDING. It was like he was seriously telling us something. We cracked up and as he went on his way he fell off the fence LOL. I think he was so upset that he lost his balance.
The family is really looking forward to going to watch my brother coach his team on to another victory tomorrow night. Definitely another fun thing about fall--high school football. The first game of the season it was so hot, no hot chocolate was needed. I do believe tomorrow will be different. GO LEX!!
Time to get back to school, their break is over, so is mine:)
