There is nobody funneling money into my household except for me. And because I was an economics major and my dad was a banker, I am keenly aware of cash flow, assets and liabilities, and expenditures. Still, sometimes, I forget how expensive life can be.

Although it often seems as if our planet is reducing the number of seasons from four to two, there still is reason to celebrate and marvel at autumn/fall.

So, before we know it, winter will be here!
