I recently redecorated my dining room (more on that later) and left it with a fall feel, and it seemed to me that swapping out my Twitter color palette accordingly would be appropriate.

Finally fall
I stepped out into a cool, lightly dewy morning with a bright yet unwarm sun and felt refreshed. N, I noticed, was wearing a zippered sweatshirt. I was in my usual stretchy pants and t-shirt, my bare arms already tingling.
It wasn’t long into this finally fall morning workout that N was tying her sweatshirt around her waist. Our bodies provided all the heat we needed as we walked, squatted, and kicked our way around the track. 50 leaning pushups and a quick jog later, we held plank on the ground, shifting our weight back and up through the core, breathing in the scents of water and soil. The damp grass left my hands raw.
I drove home with the window all the way down, my arm hanging out into long sought autumn air, and when I arrived I simply sat, watching the shadow patterns the gentle breeze spun through waving leaves on the wall.
Fleeting fall
Remember those gorgeous red leaves I showed you the other day? Well, compare this
to this!
Impressive, eh? In a matter of five days, the vibrant, beautiful leaves were reduced to crispy, colorless leftovers. The tree-stripping was assisted by a particularly blustery Thursday. As I drove to work, leaves whirled all around my car. I wanted to take a movie of it, actually…but I didn’t, alas.
