Hum-drum Day

Today is a blah day to me...YEAH the sun just popped out a little...sorry its been dreary this morning and a little bit of sunshine makes things perk up it seems.

A pinch of sunshine!

I have a project in mind that I wanted to share with you.  Scarves for my co-workers - that's what I plan on making for them in our secret Santa stockings.  Each year a certain group of us at work put up stockings and purchase a gift of $1-$2 value to stuff inside each stocking.  My "go-to" gift is Dollar Tree socks but this year I purchased some grey polar fleece and have the intention of appliqueing each person's initial on the scarf.  It will come out roughly right at a dollar I figured out and will (hopefully) be a cute gift.

In 2 weeks I have fall break at school so I plan on starting on them then unless I get the notion to sneak some in sooner.  I have a good feeling about them - hopefully they'll turn out perfect!

On to another topic - this weekend we plan on using our Groupon coupon on Saturday to take a Ghost Tour in downtown (Chattanooga aka Chatt-Town) on a double-decker bus.  We will be joining our friends, Daniel and Sarah, along with another couple to dinner and then a tour at 10:30pm.  How appropriate to have a late night tour...spooky...right!

This is a picture from Groupon

I've been on a real double-decker in London before and it was so neat...but I can't wait to experience this in our own hometown and a ghost tour to boot!  I think we'll all have a wonderful time and hopefully I'll remember to take pictures and post those along with my thoughts about the night.

Hope you are all enjoying this fall weather and all the beautiful colors of the trees.  That's what I love most about fall - the colors!  It's amazing to see what a beautiful world the Lord created for us and what an exquisite color pallet He has...gorgeous!  Every time I go anywhere that's what I notice the most, all the colors and how bright they are on the different trees.

Well I guess I spouted enough out for now...stay tuned!
