There's been quite a few changes these past two weeks.  It is noticeably darker in the mornings, and darker earlier in the evening.  This year, I'm not sure why, I felt a little cheated, 'No, no, it's too soon for it to be getting darker'.  But, as I've noted before, it's been getting darker every day practically since school was out last June.  It's just that this year, it seems different for some reason.  

We had our first foggy morning a week or so ago, and a little bit more rain, and a grey day on Friday.... looks like fall is really here.  Oh, and I've got my first cold of the season.  *That's* unusual; I don't typically catch the things the kids are passing around, but this one seems particularly effective at propagating itself; many of the folks I know are sniffling and there appear to be quite a few teachers who are calling in sick. 

The greenhouse effort continues.  I had really hoped that there'd be a strong push, and they'd get it done, but it seems to be dragging on.  The DH believes that he'll get some of his buds around some Wednesday and they'll raise the roof when he gets to that point.  I keep expecting that to be the up coming Wednesday, but each week, we're not there yet.  Coincidentally, I just saw a link to a DIY site with instructions on how to reuse windows to make a greenhouse; theirs looks a lot more like what I expected than what I see happening out back.  But whatever, I guess. This is The Girl and her Dad's project, and I'm mostly staying clear.  It would be nice, however, if it could get wrapped up before the rains came again....
