Hibernation

So most of yesterday was spent cleaning up the yard, putting away the patio furniture, cleaning out gutters, and picking up leaves. There was only one small thing I didn't have time for, but I might catch that today. But that brings to close another outdoor season for me. Somewhat of a sad day, but winter WILL come, and there's nothing I can do to stop it. It's about time to turn into an old grizzly bear and suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder, plus put on my winter coat, and hibernate. I guess I've got another month of football before it gets real depressing. Hopefully by then, I'll have just a couple of months of bearlike attitude for my family to endure, and then it will all be better. In the meantime, make sure I have plenty of seasonal food and drink, chocked full of calories, to help keep my weight up during the frigid months. Another important thing to remember, don't wake a sleeping grizzly, at least until end of March/beginning of April. Then you can poke me with a stick:)
