The Colors of Fall

We've been invited over to friends' house tonight for dinner.  I decided to get some flowers at the grocery store and make a fresh arrangement for the hostess.
 

 

Today's journal pages

I never got one of those little diaries with the gold key when I was a girl. I wish I had as it might have been interesting to see what I wrote at the time. Maybe it would have been lots of "Dear Diary, Nothing happened today."

I wish I had kept a regular journal when we lived in the Netherlands. At least I do have photos and some written captions. I am not into scrapbooking though.

I liked my creative writing classes when I was in high school and the brief time I was in college. One of my poems got published in the Colorado Springs newspaper, the Gazette Telegraph. For awhile I thought I'd be a news reporter or a journalist.

Anyway, I've tried to keep a regular journal for about 5 years now. I write mostly, though sometimes collages or doodles creep onto my pages. I love fat journals and ones with crinkled paper.
Here is a spread I did today.
