Can you believe it's fall? Sept 9th already? WOW -- we didn't have much of a summer here in VT so I'm hoping that fall is going to be OUTSTANDING! If you have read any of my blog posts you know that fall really is my favorite time of year. Sitting on my back deck soaking up the late afternoon sun is definitely one of my fav things to do. Right now I'm on the deck watching two chipmunks chase each other back and forth and back and forth across the lawn. Angry? or trying to get friendly? LOL - who knows it's comical though.
I think we are in for a tough cold winter - I have been watching the squirrels and chipmunks for some weeks now and they have been busy busy busy building up their food supply. The chipmunks have even dug out (and I mean a huge pile of dirt) the stone wall - I think they have built a condo in there or something. Wow - better there than under my house I guess.
Fall really is a time to start storing things and cleaning up and buttoning up for winter. We should pay attention to the animals and act accordingly. Me? I'm stocking up on my supplements and vitamins for a cold hard winter. I thought about a H1N1 flu shot this year but they scare me! Man - have you noticed the stuff in it? The side effects that could happen? etc? shudder.... maybe some extra Vitamin C and D - Vitamin D is the new C this year. Many drs have stated that we aren't getting enough Vitamin D --- we use alot of sunscreen (that's good - but not so good too as the sun is where we get alot of our vitamin D) and we aren't outside as much as we used to be back in the olden days - alot of office jobs - alot of driving - lot less sunshine (and with the way this summer was in VT - ALOT less sunshine!). So get your vitamins, get your supplements, grab a fuzzy ol' blanket and make like a chipmunk and hibernate! http://brendasabin.com (search for Vitamin D - Isotonix is awesome)
