October, it’s so nice to meet you
Yesterday brought the first day of October and with that new date an impressive show of bone chilling cold to Idaho. Well hello Mr. Fall/Winter you sorta kicked Summer and her blazing warm panties off her September soapbox, now didn’t ya. I’m ok with that because I was pretty tired of wearing my warm weather clothing and hats all the time. Plus my favorite pair of flip-flops broke on Tuesday, so that was a decent time to say buh-bye to Summer.
Kate in the Red Kilt
I spent the last official weekend of warm weather outside with my family listening to beautiful music and watching lots and lots of men in kilts walking around. At this point I totally get the historical romance novels and why those buxom babes swoon over their Highland scoundrels. A guy in a kilt is rather sexy.
Of course, my Mother who plays the bagpipes and my daughter who plays the snare drum were also in kilts, but for a lady it can’t be sexy (especially family), so it’s just cool. Watching Kaitlyn perform next to all the big giant men in kilts is jaw dropping for me personally, as the El Mommasun. She always looks so teenie tiny, which she is of course, because she’s only 5 feet 1 whole inch. My other daughter Shelby is a short shrimp as well at 5 feet 2 whole inches. The fact I, who is tall enough not to personally know a single female taller than me, is perplexed by my short daughters. Genetically speaking, they should have been at least 5 foot plus 8 inches or more…….
Yesterday Provocation of Mine experienced another 404-error blackout for an estimated 5 hours. I know the world kept spinning for everyone else, but for me, I have learned certain lessons when it comes to messing with webspace in ones domain administration page. To put it simple, don’t touch things. In fact, just stay away from the interior bowels, don’t even sign in to look around. Basically, I humbly swear, never to touch a damn thing again…for I am undeniably voodoo cursed.
That’s it, that’s all I’ve got for today. I wish everyone a happy and enjoyable October.
Sounds like a great way to say goodbye to summer and embrace the fall. Looks like Kate carried herself proud!
Love the picture! How did you get two small daughters? I have to agree with you–kilts can look pretty good on the right guy. I’m not as thrilled as you are with fall, but there’s not much I can do about it, now is there? I have to be stern with myself when I get like this.

As someone who needs a stepladder in her kitchen just to put dishes away, I find it amusing you have two small daughters.
Autumn has definitely made her grand entrance here in NY. I’m hoping I can have one day without rain this weekend for a road trip to enjoy the mountains and the changing foliage.
Loved the picture with Kaitlyn! (Hugs)Indigo

My lovely wife Janice and I went to the Scottish festival last month in Estes Park. She said the very same thing about men in kilts. Thanks for the post.

Ohhhh! A Scottish festival? I would have been in heaven. I like my men Scottish (thus explaining the marriage to Geoffrey Pettigrew -totally Scottish!)
On the weather front, it actually felt kind of ‘fallish’ here the last couple of days. Our highs in the 80′s and overnight lows in the 50′s. Absolute Perfection. Warm enough not to need a heavy jacket, but cool enough not to sweat. ;p

Hi Rebecca, yep, it got damned cold here today too, and suddenly the leaves were orange and all over my car. Not the kind of weather I’d be keen to buy a kilt for! Indigo.

Ahhh yes, October. The windows are open, it’s a bright blue sky Saturday afternoon, and I’m ready for an afternoon nap.
Sorry about your outage. You must be getting too much traffic:)
I have to go, this kilt is riding up a bit.
