Colors of Now

Let me write about this bush. I don't know it's name or really anything about it except that I LOVE IT! Actually, I knew when we moved here, that it was the kind of bush that would turn BRILLIANT red in the fall. and here we are, and I'm discovering the changes in my yard and it's a beautiful thing. this bush brings me enormous joy.

also behold the common beautiful pest known as the morning glory. it's terribly invasive but i cannot bear to rip these out. so i suppose morning glory take over is inevitable.

my back door has these kale plants. I've never bought them before because let's face it, seasonal window boxes run up costs. but i couldn't resist getting these. only 2 of them. no harm right? plus these babies will last way into the cold weather season.

and lastly, i finally went to get color on my new do. black and brown for autumn's sake. that and the insecurity of my brother's criticism that I always go for red color. there. are you happy russell? i happen to really love this color job. the browns blend under the black all around the front and sides and i think maybe in the back al little too. seeing this photo really has me asking only one question. Why didn't i find my stylist earlier in life. i've never been so tickled as i have been since finding Tamara. she does what i ask and even cooler every time. hope everyone is enjoying October. Costume blog coming soon.
