Hey everyone!
We are back from America! Two days after we got back Will, Ben, my mom and I went to Italy with the co-op. We returned today. I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy to be home, now fall is starting and it's the best time of the year! When you step outside you can smell wood burning and it is just the best smell in the world! Soon I am moving my room and painting my room-to-be a light brown. I cannot wait! Soon it'll be winter and I'll be able to wrap up in my big warm blankets! Well, I'll write later!

Poem of November
Limbo
Fishermen at Ballyshannon
Netted an infant last night
Along with the salmon.
An illegitimate spawning,
A small one thrown back
To the waters. But I'm sure
As she stood in the shallows
Ducking him tenderly
Till the frozen knobs of her wrists
Were dead as the gravel,
He was a minnow with hooks
Tearing her open.
She waded in under
The sign of the cross.
He was hauled in with the fish.
Now limbo will be
A cold glitter of souls
Through some far briny zone.
Even Christ's palms, unhealed,
Smart and cannot fish there.
-Seamus Heaney

Home feels so good.
And autumn equals hot chocolate, equals love. :)

I don't like chocolate...but warm...love! Yes!
