    Default Decorating for FALL in August

    :Well this morning i decided to start decorating the inside for fall. Since im going to have the Bladder scope on September 1 and bladder lift a few weeks later, i will be layed up and cant move or lift for 4-6 weeks. So that would take me well into OCT. So i started early. The weather felt a little fallish it was 75 and breezy tomorrow 72.. So i was the mood to decorate. I will decorate with will pumkins and bails of hay and corn some time in September. Thats stuff the girls enjoy doing. Any one else doing decorating. One year when my kids were little I put the xmas tree up on Oct 31st. My daughter reminds me of every year.:

    Fall is my favorite time of year, too! Certainly can't hurt to start decorating early.

    This year, to to be as frugal as possible, I will try to bring as much of nature in to our home as possible...real leaves, sunflowers, nuts, gourds, herbs and whatever else I think will work. I also have an obsession with driftwood so if I can work that in there, I will!

    I hope your surgeries go well and love Fall to. It feels little fallish here today to after super hot weather the last few weeks. I hung my fall wreath on the front door and I am digging my fall candles out to this weekend.

    It is hot and humid here in the northeast but it has all of the fall sounds and signs. Matter of fact some of the trees are starting to turn. Fall is my favorite time of the year and I can't wait to decorate for it. I wish you the best of luck with your tests and surgery and prayers are going up for you.

    I'm sorry to hear the reason for your decorating is an impending surgery, but I love the fall decorating in August.

    Fall is my favorite season and I can't decorate soon enough. I just picked up about 10 Halloween books at the library. Next trip, we'll probably get some Thanksgiving books.
