Really, Really, Longing For Fall

The garden around my potting shed is looking very sad now.  After

several months of extremely high temps, nothing looks the same.

I faithfully watered, twice on most days, but despite my best efforts,

everything suffered.  I have dug up all most of the plants now.  

The sad thing about living in South Texas is that spring comes early

and hopes for a beautiful garden run high.  It was pretty for a while

and oh how I enjoyed it.  Now it's just a memory.  Thank goodness

for photos.

I woke up this morning thinking of fall decor.  I plan to scale back

inside the house this year, and focus on the potting shed, she shed,

or whatever I am calling it now.  I intend to go to the max out here

and inside the shed too.  

As I start to think about what I will do both inside and outside of the 

shed, a thought occurred to me.  A very dangerous thought ....

brown transferware!

I don't have any and I might need some.  Just a couple of pieces to

incorporate into my decorating scheme.  This could very well be a 

slippery slope because I do have a dish addiction.  

I quickly changed my thoughts from transferware to scarecrows.

I will definitely need one of those.  Should I have a scarecrow man

or a scarecrow lady???

Whatever I decide to do, just thinking about cooler days makes

me happy.  It will happen, maybe not as soon as I would like,

but it will.
