Forget the red carpet, ours is yellow.
Autumn well and truly hit us in Canberra this week with wet weather, falling leaves and zero degrees at dawn today. My backyard looks like the trees thew up in it.
Given it's so wet we can't rake, sweep or blow, so for now I just have to stare out the window and look at the yellow carpet nature has given us.
There's a very large part of me that feels like swearing - particularly when the kids and dogs bring the wet leaves into the house on their feet.
But really, what's the point in getting annoyed when it's a sign of nature at its finest.
So as the trees shed and the weather turns cool, I'll be looking at it in wonder and awe rather than in annoyance and self pity.
For as long as I can anyway. Then I'll probably start swearing again.
Has autumn hit your part of the world?
Anyone else got a yard full of leaves?
What are you lovin' about life this week?
