"No spring nor summer's beauty has such grace,
As I have seen in one Autumnal face..."~John Donne, "Elegy IX, The Autumnal"
Hi folks; I'm still here and thank you for not giving up on me. :) As of this evening, we finally have all our blinds back on the windows and all the curtains back up, too. We had replacement windows installed in our home on September 15th, and we had 13 sets of blinds to re-hang. On this Wednesday, September 28th, they'll be here to put up all new gutters for us. We're thrilled because they'll look so much better, and we won't have to worry about cleaning those bad boys anymore. ;) Now it's time for me to get over to the carpet store and start selecting new carpet for our den and hallway. I'd really like to have that done by Christmas if possible.
Are you ushering in fall in your part of the world yet? Have you started to enjoy some cooler temperatures? Today was the first cool day we've had in over a week. I'm busily putting out the fall decor in our house, so I'll have some pictures to show you later in the week. Those of you who are new to House at Forest Manor, you might enjoy seeing some images from previous fall posts.
