School is right around the corner, and as Chief Administrator and Principal Instructor for the Purdyville Homeschooling Academy, I’ve got a lot of lesson planning and general preparation to do. Despite the fact that I have over a dozen blog posts sitting in my Drafts folder, I’m going to take a little break and get ready for school. Comments are always welcome and since other readers subscribe to them, you’ll still have an audience even if I can’t respond myself (but I might).
I’ll be back as soon as I can . . .

In the end, this may be the most important thing about frost: Frost slows us down. In spring, it tempers our eagerness. In fall, it brings closure and rest. In our gotta-go world–where every nanosecond seems to count–slowness can be a great gift. So rather than see Jack Frost as an adversary, you could choose to greet him as a friend.

Hey Kathy,
Yes, lots to do this time of year. I’m just back from loads of travels myself. Happily, the garden is alive, thanks to my niece who was house sitting Mother Nature, who finally kicked in with FOUR INCHES of rain!!!!
