Welcome to October, the mid-Atlantic not gonna turn the heat on yet month. The goal here is to not turn the heat on until it gets to November. No fires, for those of you who heat with fire. No heat pump or electric baseboard, no oil, no heat. Baking or roasting in oven, doing laundry, etc are OK and you can have heat in the bathroom ONLY and ONLY when you are showering or bathing. Can you make it to November? LOL. I am winning so far. The house is... about 58F.
Also it's time for Stayman Winesaps, the most wonderful apples of all. If this is an option for you, you might get some. The time is now.
Earlier this year, the owner of the barky dogs who lives in the hayfield copse where I ride my horse (there are three barky dogs, elderly labs, who are mostly secured but sometimes NOT secured and the not-secured times are random and unexpected which I do not love and neither does my horse) offered up an unwanted ball winder for yarn. I accepted the unwanted ball winder, which is a hand cranked kind of oscillating post thing. I tried it out last night and folks, this thing is da bomb. It's amazing. Super easy to operate and also very fun. Two thumbs up. Would only be better if I had a swift to go with it.
