Anticipating Autumn...

I'm not really a Summer sort of girl; I never have been.
I enjoy the light and a warmth outside, but I always prefer being on the cool inside looking out.
Summer has felt like I've been whizzing around, way too busy (even to name the types of my beloved telephone kiosks in my last post!)
But I'm starting to feel my favorite season approaching, and my perfect weather.
So I've been trying to reconnect with home after being far too transient for weeks...
I've been 'placing' things: one of my favorite occupations, and one of my treasures from a Summer visit to a friend, was first to be 'placed': A load of vintage 1940's Housewife magazines, and then I became distracted with flower arranging...
One of my paintings seemed to have a very current connection with me, as I've been indulging my obsession with countryside kiosks during my Northern excursions...




I also visited my parents again, and really felt that 'the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness' was virtually upon us...
The 'apple tub' was changing colour too...
But even surrounded by all this natural beauty, I couldn't resist another pylon moment...
they're becoming a new thing for me!
And to round off August...as if to have a prize for survivng it...I've got an acting job at last!
A very small part in a new comedy film with Martin Freeman...
I'm chuffed, and will film in early September, and just hope I won't be cut out of the end product!
Adios...
