I’m being watched…

Rel Mollet Just for Fun

I’m loving being back in Florida while we wait for our Minnesota home to be rebuilt (and our newest granddaughter to be born!)

However, I’m being stalked.

By this guy:

And this GUY:

In fact…they’re everywhere! Every night we settle into our hot tub, and apparently that’s the cue for our frog stalkers to gather for the show. They just sit there on the edge of our patio cover, watching us like we’re the evening entertainment. (I promise, nothing exciting is happening!) Plus, they hold what I can only describe as very loud town hall meetings that echo across the entire neighborhood. I’m not sure what they’re debating, but they’re VERY passionate about it.

They’re plotting something, I just know it.

Speaking of discoveries, I finally made it to the Melbourne Beach library this week—and got myself a Library Card! It’s a cute little place right here in paradise—and you’ll never believe what happened. There, sitting pretty on the romance shelf, was Everything’s Coming up Josey! And oh my heart, it was so beautifully beat up and loved, with that perfect “I’ve been in a hundred different hands” look that makes an author’s soul sing.

But you know what’s funny? Standing there in 85-degree sunshine, surrounded by palm trees, I find myself craving those crisp Minnesota mornings, the crunch of leaves under my feet, and yes—even sitting in freezing football stands with hot chocolate, cheering until my voice gives out. There’s something about fall that makes me think of cozy sweaters, pumpkin everything, and… Christmas!

When do you start thinking about Christmas?

P.S. Heads up for Friday’s post – we have a super fun Alaska Air One Rescue deal headed your way!
