I love September too, we live in a rural village in West Yorkshire and the nights are drawing in and every evening we see lots of tractors and combine harvesters driving by with their lights on reminding us that the seasons are changing. I feel a real affinity to the time of year I was born and adore crisp cold January days and cosy, dark early nights, when the curtains are drawn and we're all together.<br />twiggy xTwiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065849697979313992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-12507979235675475722009-09-09T13:36:51.451-07:002009-09-09T13:36:51.451-07:00Lovely paintings, Cait and as always lots to explo...Lovely paintings, Cait and as always lots to explore, books and music... thank you.Chris Stovellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03741359642268813093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-45454537259548527372009-09-08T21:38:27.750-07:002009-09-08T21:38:27.750-07:00Hi Cait - How I wish I was in Wales at the moment-...Hi Cait - How I wish I was in Wales at the moment- it really is my favourite place. My birth month is February. It's the hottest month in Australia.Unfortunately everyone has new school uniforms and school fees to pay,teaching friends have classes to prepare, and the Christmas bills are coming in- so it's usually - have to take a rain check sorry! I think Spring would be a lovely time to be born - the birds and animals have it right!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-38206323547028107042009-09-07T17:18:26.254-07:002009-09-07T17:18:26.254-07:00Cait, thank you for introducing me to the beatiful...Cait, thank you for introducing me to the beatiful paintings by Dee Pieters.<br /><br />I am also a September child who loves the weather of her birth month. (Think that there is something to that notion of loving the month in which you were born.)<br /><br />When you digress, I really begin to pay attention.<br /><br />Your posts are ones to read, and then return to, for another read.<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-26864450091218863382009-09-07T13:52:18.532-07:002009-09-07T13:52:18.532-07:00I do like that Updike poem.

I don't know about loving your birth-month; mine is January, and that is probably my least favorite month. <br /><br />I saw the new Anne Tyler at the bookstore yesterday. There are lots of lovely new hardbacks to read at the moment. I am with you: let's be hermits and catch up on our reading!Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02375981493145612394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-36910089472176122742009-09-07T09:39:29.727-07:002009-09-07T09:39:29.727-07:00So many beautiful images in this post - the month-...So many beautiful images in this post - the month-in-waiting image is lovely.<br />I too have a fondness for May, the month of my birth, but love October with all it's colour.Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-14333725261117295592009-09-07T08:56:49.182-07:002009-09-07T08:56:49.182-07:00It's just my favourite time of year.

I am at the beginning of December, but October/November, autumnal months, are probably my favourite, that shutting down of one season and into the next which is almost on the horizon. I love the snugginess of autumn, and winter too, home made soups, stews cooked all day in the crockpot, roasted chestnuts, brussels sprouts, comforting puds on a Sunday. I shall look up The Weight of Water, the cover appeals, and I have just finished Noah's Compass, and loved it.. but then, there isn't a book of hers that I haven't really enjoyed I don't think.pinkfairygranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09497901949136714254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-14411691759408897702009-09-07T07:03:46.098-07:002009-09-07T07:03:46.098-07:00I like September too.

In Northumberland, where I lived until my late twenties, the bracken would turn a crisp chestnut colour; autumn was often a very dry season and in the lee of the Cheviots we would sit on the sandstones at Bowden Doors, looking out to sea.The bike shedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05195882998271591934noreply@blogger.com
