Shower curtains, sheets, and imagination

I had an hour after work yesterday and didn't feel like going home yet, so I decided to (once again) attempt to find a shower curtain that is unique and that will pass the style test for both Wil and me. Whew! What a challenge! Is it too much to ask to find one with some orange in it?

Anyway, while I was at TJ Maxx I found some sheets to go with our new quilt (I have had the same old floral print for a LONG time and I feel it's long overdue to "man up" the bedroom so Wil doesn't get lost in too many girly colors...he says he doesn't care, but I do!). But once I was in the store I decided to wander around and ended up in some holiday aisles. It got me so excited to think about being in our new place for Christmas and being able to put up some festive decorations, since I had thought we would not get to... It kinda shocked me when I stepped outside into 80 degree weather, although much cooler here than last week...I almost forgot that I am here in the south without a colorful leaf in sight and snowflakes improbable. Will I ever enjoy the fall here? No mittens worn to a highschool football game, no fall jackets needed, few crisp mornings...no hard frost for quite some time yet...here I go again...it's just this time of year that makes me miss all that cold related stuff. Once we get into January I will be thankful once again for Texas weather. I just hope it's not too much to ask to see some snow while I am in NYC over t-day!
