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 don't know if it was because I stayed up past 11:00 last night or because I unloaded all that crap I been carrying around in my heart, but I actually slept quite well last night.
Dyk was up shortly after Keith left this morning at 6?
Dyk growing up, the TV was always turned off during dinner?
Dyk that was not the case in Tom's house?
Dyk they would actually shush you if you talked during the meal?
Dyk I wish my TV wasn't visible from the dinning area?
Dyk looks cozy!
dyk this is my favorite part of the living room -- our "library"
dyk Sean simply grew up in front of the TV
dyk it's cracking us up
dyk and she used her robe belt to make a sling and wore it all afternoon
dyk this has gone a bit far...
dyk I hope that continues.
dyk it's hit or miss with oats and celiacs apparently
dyk so I tried some apple cinnamon cheerios
dyk they were pretty good.
dyk whew! it had a great turn out -- no official tally yet
dyk we had rain today? several scattered but locally heavy rainfall showers
dyk I am ready to start planning the dinner party
dyk it is dinner party time for me
dyk the tshirt social was great and we all sat down at my parent's dining table and ate -- it was so nice
dyk time for a dinner party -- we are going to go full out -- teaching the girls at the maternity home (15+yrs old) how to make a meal then setting the table, topics, hostess gifts -- the works
