Fall in the south...

Reds, yellows, oranges....

Those are the colors gracing the 20 acre hill in which the Skrivseths reside...I personally do not remember a time ever before that the trees on OUR hill turns quite so radiant. Maybe i just have a short memory or maybe they truly never have changed who knows....always in town there are dogwoods turning red, maples turning yellow, etc... but on the Skrivseth hill? nope....

in other news the weather here has been absolutely amazing....finally it cooled off and no need for a/c or heat for about 2 months now! :-) maybe less....yesterday if froze for the first...not a hard killing frost but frost none the less...means winters coming ready or not!

the boys have been hunting.....dad too! i've been painting....mom's been sewing....andrea and gwynndon started milking for two other farmers close....and the rest just been going to school and doing their normal stuff...Last night and next sunday night i get to milk extra cause Carl's went and are going away....he had to preach yesterday at 2 other churches...and they are leaving tomorrow for Nicaragua to see their son Joel and also a niece, Carmen, who just recently went down there....

i think tomorrow i shall go take some pictures of those blazing leaves.....

ponderings...

Some times i wonder....why do i even blog? do ppl even read it? but then i wonder am i selfishly wanting ppl to notice? do they have to comment? I rarely comment on other's posts...so why should they comment on mine? I do try to comment all the time! but for some reason since my computer is so slow....the internet anyway...it tells me i'm not allowed to....so even if you don't see a comment from me know that i wanted to! and maybe that's everybody elses problem! the same one i have! their internet's being snotty! ha! ;) I love to read all the blogs i do read and wish like crazy that i could comment! so here a some comments i've thought about recently.... Amy...I loved your Christmas blog! and i know ya'll might get tired of me saying this...but it almost brought tears to my eyes...thinking as how we miss out on that kinda stuff here in South Carolina.....since everybody else...or a bunch of everybody else is way out there! But thanks for the pictures and all...

Hello to all....

I'm sitting in northern Wisconsin at my aunt's house figuring out how to use this! wow! i shoulda just started pushing buttons before....that's what she had me do! pushing buttons is what i do best when it comes to computers! ;-) cause that's what your do right?! This wireless internet is really nice...i'm going to have to get use to my slow phone at home again in about a week...I am supposed to fly home next monday....if the weather isn't bad...the weather has been lovely! I have been enjoying the crispness of the northern air! I will have to learn to endure the muggy wet of the south...i did it last year to i'll survive again! School teaching is something I love! i forgot how much i loved it until about 3 weeks ago when i began teaching again as a substitute teacher here at Northwoods...It was a little strange at first being in a new school and stuff but i soon got used to it and am loving it! now to get enough sleep to be able to function properly! :-) I ...

i Think it's time...

To go on a trip! I was thinking that i needed to get out my suitcase to pack to go on the camping trip and all of a sudden realized how odd it felt to be getting it out....and thinking back to camping trips before how it didn't feel so odd to get packed up....well, i suppose that means i've been working too much and not going places anymore! ha ha! This summer i may get a few excursions in here and there...but not sure yet if i will or not.....i am going to LA for 10 days, but there are a few other places to go too..... i mean i need to put my suitcases to use right?! :-) it's definitely time! ha ha! in other news...this weekend is the end of school....graduation....etc! I have to milk this evening because one of the sons of the guy I milk for is graduating....and the mama usually milks and she wondered if i would for her...i get the next 3 days off...so i'm milking tonight... I have 2 more weeks at the store...and 3 weeks till i go to LA... In the mean time there is GA...
