As I look outside my window: I notice that the weeds in the dirt patch of a backyard are getting out of control. I may have to do something about that soon...

Right now I am: Getting ready to pop over to the grocery store before the crowds get crazy

Thinking and pondering: How are we going to navigate this fall? So many things to cover...
