chilly morning

Frost on the grass today.

These past two days have felt a lot more like November should, but I have to say that after more than a month of the typical Georgia autumn, in which the mornings are cold and by lunchtime it's up in the seventies again, to have it suddenly stay cold all day is a bit of a harsh transition to make.

I really have to get some sweaters made, since I prefer not to wear stuff over the dresses that I haven't made myself. Gotta start thinking about a jacket too. Last night I had to go out late and it was 4 Celsius (I know I've said before that 4 degrees is t-shirt weather, but that's only in March after a hard winter; that's how relativity works, kids). So I cheated and wore a sweater coat over my dress, a really sweet oversize curling coat that I got at the buckapound over the summer, with intarsia curling rocks and brooms all over it. I'm looking forward to making that my number one winter coat once this project is over, but for now I've got to either get sewing or be cold.

Nice picture. I wore a t-shirt today and carried my sweater around. Loving the weather!

At SAFF, we talked about GA making you soft and how brutal winters in Canada were going to be once you got back. Maybe you should forgo sweaters/coats and just stick to long-sleeved tops under your dresses to get your ready for real winter weather?
