Helen Hunt Jackson- September Poem

The goldenrod is yellow,
The corn is turning brown,
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down;

The gentian’s bluest fringes
Are curling in the sun;
In dusty pods the milkweed
Its hidden silk has spun;

The sedges flaunt their harvest
In every meadow nook,
And asters by the brookside
Make asters in the brook;

From dewy lanes at morning
The grapes’ sweet odors rise;
At noon the roads all flutter
With yellow butterflies–

By all these lovely tokens
September days are here,
With summer’s best of weather
And autumn’s best of cheer.

dyk I left the crossed off items off my list at the store

dyk but I deviated -- I added apple juice -- I could NOT remember if we were out, and I impulse grabbed vanilla wafers that were on sale ;-)

dyk I came in... $90.43 over the budget for the month -- IF we buy not a single food or household item for the rest of the month

dyk yeah that's not gonna happen -- HAHA

dyk we will need something

dyk in fact I almost got this tylenol pain relief cream that I saw while I was waiting in line to get Abi's Rx -- for Sean for his hands

dyk Jadyn and Ellie are chowing down on fruit snacks, cheese sticks and apple snacks

dyk they are a snackin' duo

dyk Jadyn is very excited that the next thing on her chart is to get Dek off the bus

dyk ok Dek has been secured off the bus

dyk and Ellie is napping

dyk so now we pray that my mom and sister do indeed get here by 3:30 so I can take Jadyn to go get Abi and not have to take Dek and Ellie, too

dyk they are only about 30 minutes away and they left 5 minutes ago -- so 50 minutes outta be enough lol

dyk and I can foresee a problem coming up very soon

dyk my mom and sister will be here when I get back with Jadyn and Abi from getting Abi at school

dyk and they will prob want to head out to my mom's -- which I can't go b/c Ellie is sleeping -- no biggie

dyk but there is a slight chance that they will not want to take all 3 big kids (Dek, Abi, and Jadyn) but my sister will tell Jadyn SHE can come.

dyk and I will go ballistic
