Insta Me aghan: Doing Fall Things

Good Morning! Here's an instagram update of what has been going on lately in my world.
 Over the weekend Dee and I carved pumpkins with his brother Carlos and his girlfriend Dana. We went to a church around the corner from our house to pick our pumpkins and then made a party out of it- hot chai tea, creepy music and all. How sweet is my sugar skull carving? :)
I took a long walk with our big dog Chloe through a trail by our house. The hanging moss on the trees is gorgeous when the sunlight shines through. And how about these beauty berries, what a bright color!
After our walk and carving pumpkins I had a hot mug of apple cider and cinnamon while watching The Holiday. Now that my pumpkin is carved my brain is ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas... NEXT!
After heading to bed a little early last night, I woke up around 6:30 today and made a batch of blueberry muffins, cheater style. It was easy and at 7 AM after my 5 minute meditation (the first in a long time), it worked. :)

Do you have any morning rituals that you do before starting your day?

First off I would like to say fantastic blog! I had
a quick question which I'd like to ask if you don't
mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
I've had a difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Cheers!

Thanks Cindii, it's already wilted and turned to mush though. :(

Probably a much better idea than when I carved mine. I hope it turned out for you!
