I puttered a little bit outside a few days ago....see that green birdhouse? There is a wasp nest inside....we've had an abundance of wasps this year....Mr. Seventies removed one nest during the summer from underneath the pool steps! Go figure. This nest....we are leaving alone....when the frost hits Mr. Seventies will remove it then....
They were in abundance of them on this day....so I didn't spend too much time out there....the corn stalks will have to wait....
That same afternoon I took a quick visit to a couple of thrift stores.....it boggles my mind the outrageous prices they are selling things for!! The bargains are few & far between nowadays....I found this bundt cake pan & since I didn't have one....I picked it up. Along with a couple of books....
That was the extent of my purchases! I really didn't find any bargains....
While browsing La Vie En Rose website....I came across this snuggly robe.....and since I only have a knee length one suitable for summer.....I ordered it in a size Large. I should have ordered a size Medium....as it's quite roomy....but I decided to keep it....some things I like roomy! This was also available in a navy colour.....but I went with pink....
And....the fire ban has been lifted! We've been under "No Burn" restrictions for weeks....(due to lack of rain). We've had the odd shower or two.....it must have been enough to ease the restrictions....we're looking forward to enjoying our outside fire pit again......especially since the evenings are darker earlier & the temps are cooler! Propane fire pits were allowed...(daughter has one).....but open wood burning fires at home or campsites have been forbidden.....too much risk involved.....
Today....I'm on the hunt for jeans! With the arrival of fall....summer clothes have been packed into totes....and I am in need of jeans. It always feels strange the first few times getting back into long pants....after a summer of shorts & t shirt dresses.....
I hope you have an awesome day & weekend.....I'll be finishing up decorating the family room for Hallowe'en....
Til next time....
