How fast the colors fade

How fast the colors fade… πŸ‚

With November tomorrow and the heavy rain, winds and recent cold snap, the colors of autumn and certainly summer are gone. Here are the browns and grays of November – nice on their own accord but always too quickly popping up.

I’ll be glad when campaign season is over 🍬

I really don’t have to eat all that candy and processed food at the campaign committee offices, nor do I have to eat the lunches and dinners they offer that is pretty much standard American fare, though I fully do as it’s tough when your surrounded by such unhealthy foods.

I don’t buy such things at home or camp – I never buy candy or snacks or processed food, preferring to cook my own from basic ingredients. But spending all this time doing campaign work, I’ve rediscovered my sweet tooth and how wonderful processed crap is for anything but one’s waste-line and health.

But in less then a week, it will be a memory, and while there is the inevitable Christmas and Thanksgiving celebrations, other then that I will be eating a much better diet, though I won’t be riding all the way home now that evenings are dark.
