I am restless today. There is much calling for my attention in my home, and yet I just can’t seem to settle into anything for more than a few minutes. I keep looking outside.

Nathanial Hawthorne said, “ I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house. So I spend almost all the daylight hours in the open air.”

So I’m going to go for a long walk, and then sit on my porch and just be. No more reading, no more computer. I can wrap up to ward off the chill and simply enjoy the glory of this sunshiny autumn day.
