> [@swampbear](#): > > Fall is ok but Winter is teh suck. I hate cold weather. Really, I’m good with Summer but then again I am a Summer baby. 😃 How cold do you get in south Jawja? I love Winter, but I am a mid-winter baby. 😛 I really need to get my glasses adjusted. I’m starting to get a headache. Can’t wait until Tuesday. I have an eye dr. appointment and I. want. new. glasses. ---

Evenin’ all. I wound up being back a lot earlier than expected- work was a bit quiet, and everyone left early, so I was done by 8.30. Not really sorry to not have an 11 hour shift, but the extra money would have been nice, and it was really easy going. Might wind up with something during the week, but the plan is to go camping for the next few days, so I’ll not be Mumping much either way. My new housemate made din-din, and exceedingly nommy it was too 🙂 Really nice to come home late and not have to cook or get takeaway! ---

> [@anyrose](#): > > Fall is lovely, as long as it doesn’t storm too much. Likewise Spring. I could do without both Winter and Summer. Just have Spring and Autumn all year long I can go with this. I like nice weather, skip the too hot or too cold. I’m glad Sah-son interrupted me earlier or I could have been the next post 😃 ---

> [@VunderBob](#): > > Happy Equinox! > > I hate Fall and Winter. Fall’s pretty much my favorite time of year. 😃 Bread dough is currently loafing in pans rising. So nice to have a mixer that can deal with doing the kneading, especially with the way my hands and arms ache lately. At least the sinuses are calming down, so the occasional dizziness is too. Deheathenating was kinda dull today, but still worth doing. Busy calendar for the coming week: Monday, try to exchange bad memory module at computer surplus place and hopefully get more job applications out (DH really needs to get those applications out too) around yet another desktop rebuild. Tuesday features volunteering and an evening class (DH doesn’t have any solid plans that day). Wednesday looks pretty open for me, DH thinks he should do a bit of volunteer work himself (he’s also thinking tomorrow might be a volunteer day for him). Thursday is marathon volunteer day for me, open for him. Friday, he plans to hit our church employment resource office and I signed up to take a meal to a family in our congregation with a new baby and a mom recovering from a C-section. Saturday, dinner guests (must get the place defilthified!), and I theoretically need to attend a women’s meeting at church. Since that meeting is to watch a broadcast that I can also get by cable, I may just watch that at home. ---

Nearly forgot: also need to hit the library on Tuesday to pick up a couple of holds. ---
