October should mean ‘golden leaves’ or something along the beauty of the light hitting the leaves before they float to the ground. Yes, fall is in full swing and it’s been rather gorgeous in the bright clear days we’ve been gifted. Yes, it was a gloriously golden month with more sunshine and warmth than usual.
Overall, I began and ended the month with more free time than usual thanks to lacking work, but it meant I’ve been able to enjoy the hours of daylight with the clocks now having fallen an hour backwards and the sun setting ever earlier to the dark months of winter ahead.
