This past week we got to enjoy some fall sneak peeks. The weather was dreary looking and rainy. The temperature even dropped down into the lower 70s. I’ve even noticed leaves falling from one of the trees in our backyard. It just felt like fall was in the air! To capture a little bit of the mood, I dug out a new Yankee candle in Campfire Treat that I hadn’t tried before.
I keep quite a collection of candles and rotate them out in our home according to the season. This had a nice, subtle fall marshmallow scent. I’m not so sure it will be one I purchase again, but we will definitely use it up. I’m ready to dig out the apple/cinnamon-smelling candles, but I will wait until September.
Speaking of September…I can’t believe it will be here this week! I’ve started looking ahead in my planner to see what will be happening this month. Thursday is dentist day for the Teen. He will be getting three cavities filled. I’ve ordered his lunches for the week, and uniforms are washing as I type, so I think I have him squared away for the week.
We had a quiet weekend. We ordered pizza Friday evening, and hubby took over the cooking on Saturday. I was so grateful. I think I’m just a little hormonal right now. I’ve been a little moody this past weekend but tried really hard not to be “snappy”. I really do think my body is going through some changes if you will. I’m pretty sure it’s time. And it may be a new medication I started for cholesterol. Who knows? In any case, I did manage to keep the laundry going in spurts and stops and finally cleaned out my makeup drawers in our master bathroom. It felt good to get rid of so much junk I wasn’t using. I now have separate drawers for makeup, skincare, haircare, and nail care. I don’t know why I didn’t get this organized this way before. It’s made a huge difference!
I got a very small harvest today from my cherry tomato plant.
Looks like I have at least four more little tomatoes growing and one attempting to flower out, so I was pleased to see the plant is still giving!

Good for you for that clean out of makeup drawers. Cleaning things out always makes me feel good.
I am not ready for Fall, but soon I will embrace it and those fun Fall scents.
