Full Harvest Moon

Tonight, Septemeber 12th is the Full Harvest Moon. The Harvest Moon is always the full Moon closet to the autumnal equinox. If the Harvest Moon occurs in October, the September full Moon is usually called the Corn Moon. Seeing as the autumnal equinox is on the 23rd of September, I believe this will be our Harvest Moon. Hope it will be clear where you are so that your can check it out. I know I will be if the clouds will go away!

So Long August

I am never happy to see a month, especially a Summer month. But, this August has had it's ups and downs for us and I can't say that I am sad to see it go. We have been very busy, almost to the point that I can't really remember what all happened, now that is scary!! We have had two antique shows, one brand new and one a repeat show. We did okay at both, wish I could say they were great, but it is just this darn economy that has people stuck and who can blame them. We had my sister's memorial this month,which brought family together,some of which we had not seen in 8 years. Way too long, and hopefully the promises that were made to stay in contact and see each other more will hold true. And then we had hurricane Irene, also my sister's name who the memorial was for. Was she telling our family something? I know I was not the only one thinking that! My real job has slowed up again, economy again and it does not show signs of picking up for the rest of the year, so it maybe another Winter of unemployment, so not looking forward to that. So, time to get on with September. Have a great day friends
