it's getting colder

i woke up at about 8:45 this morning because i have alot of things to do today, one of which is finishing cutting my yard. it seems like i am cutting grass alot these days, and i'm not sure why that is. i don't really think that the grass in my yard grows faster than anyone elses, but maybe it does. i cut grass about once a week, and we have a gigantic yard. it takes awhile. i'm lazy so it usually takes two days. i could probably do it in one.

after i woke up this morning, i ate breakfast, and sort of sat around for about an hour. and then i walked outside to move some lawn furniture so that i could cut the grass. when i stepped outside, i realized that the temperature is definitely changing. it certainly isn't "cold" yet, but i'm sure it would constitute as "chilly", at least. in the philippines, we'd probably consider it cold. there is a place in the philippines called "Baguio" that my family would go around Christmas time. Baguio is in the mountains and usually is colder than the temperature in the city. it made us feel more "at home" (home in the United States, that is) having Christmas in cold weather, because that's what we had become used to. but after living there for so long, it's hard to know which place to call home - if i'm allowed to, i'll just call both home. anyways, the point i was getting to was that Baguio wasn't really that cold. i think it may have gotten down to the 60s on good nights. but i'm not even sure if it got that low. i always thought it was going to snow.

i'm actually sitting outside as we speak, thanks to the miracle of wireless internet. it's actually quite relaxing. it would be moreso if my psychotic three-legged dog wasn't rolling around like a lunatic at my feet.

well, i'm going to finish moving things in the yard so i can go ahead and begin to cut.

have a happy tuesday.
