DYK- September Days Are Here

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 a terrible time at our house -- even though I've already fed the kids --
dyk I am going to start baths I think -- get everyone scrubbed clean, hair done, brushed, dried and clip finger nails and toenails
dyk the kids have school pictures this week so tomorrow night I'll prob cut Dek's hair too -- he's a little bit shaggy over the ears! haha
dyk well, it's his first loose tooth and it's apparently epic.
dyk he's upset about it -- it moves when he eats... is it ready to come out?
dyk I told him when you can wiggle it and it is ready, it won't hurt it'll just pop out or fall out --
dyk it is not ready yet
dyk but didn't tell me
dyk I already defrosted pork chops
dyk so now I am making dinner -- when I didn't have to!
Dyk I think a lot of people would be pulling their hair out after a day in your shoes.
DYK can't wait to see the pics -- when are you going to do the "big move"?

dyk kitchen gadgets are great!!!
dyk silly, but.. what color ribbon? lol
DYK that's an amazing deal on the house. Was it in foreclosure or anything like that?
DYK and last night, I did look for exit 110. Wow. It's a beautiful area, but I imagined you driving from there to your work exit.
dyk the entire story can be seen here: (tons of pics)
