We went from summer to winter with only a week of fall in between. The leaves are just now changing color, in a hurry to catch up with the dropping thermometer.

It's nice to sit up here on the third floor, looking out directly into the clouds as they mist their way around the hills. The pond looks black, with a few ducks trailing out some wake behind them.

All around me, the bustle of holiday party invitations, end of year business, vacation plans, warm clothes shopping, umbrella finding, flu shot getting and windshield wiper buying. Seasonal excitement.

I feel full of energy - is it the wheel of the seasons, or being on thyroid medication? Hooray for drugs - I feel like the awakened Rip Van Winkle.
