Procrastinating...
So I decided to do something I have been putting off. Well, actually it was 3 somethings. First I changed my garden flags to the fall/autumn flags. I will take a picture of it later. It was too dark to do that when I put them up. Then I got my two bins of Halloween/Fall decor items from out of the shed. I could not see very well, so back into the house to get a flashlight so I could see which ones I needed to pull out from the mess. And brought them in the house.
The third thing was doing something about the coffee grounds. We save the coffee grounds to put around the plants in our yard. I had a good size mixing bowl full of them and it was beginning to smell ripe. Ewww!! So back outside I went in the now getting darker outside and got my trowel and spread the coffee grounds around the roses and other plants. When I came back in I noticed the ripe smell was gone. Yep, must have been the coffee grounds.
That takes care of Anti-procrastination day for this week. Now I need to decide how I am going to be more comfortable for work now that I am getting multiple hot flashes everyday. I am hoping to be able to put up with it without having to go to the doctor to get something to take for it. I don't want to put stuff in my body if I don't have too. Soon we will be wearing lab coats as part of our work wear. It will help to make the rehab team stand out more from the CNA's and other staff. And increase the professional look too I guess. Problem is I will be getting too hot in it. I need to figure out what kinds of lightweight tops I can find to wear under the lab coat. They will look nice with the name of the facility and our names embroidered on them. I may have to make myself some tops since it is the time of the year when that type of clothing may be hard to find. I prefer to wear knit type tops for ease of movement when pushing wheelchairs and transfering people and whatnot. I will wear the lab coat unbuttoned to keep it from binding too much. So what to do, what to do....
Perhaps tomorrow I will be able to start my fall decor. And yes I will take pictures. I want to use one as a new picture in my header instead of the Peace Rose from our yard that I have there now.

You are ahead of me. I just love the fall! It's one of my favorite times of they year. My kids love to decorate for Halloween. My youngest sons b-day is Nov 6 and last year we had a "halloween/b-day party" for him I need to think about what I am going to do this year.
