autumn in ticino

today was one of these days why people from north of the alps move down south. i woke up after a long night to a splendid sun. a day when you can concur everything. waking up to see light in winter is amazing. no dull mornings, no fog, no rain. i sometimes do miss the rain, but today sun for me was perfect. hubbydear took care of the garden, getting everything winter-ready. i was not able to help outside, but enjoyed the beautiful weather when i went out for a run late afternoon. no sweaters, no rain jacket, just 2 t's and i was off. i wish for loads of snow at christmas, because christmas should not be without that. but for now i felt blessed. now i am sitting here in winterstyle, with joggingpants and uggs on my feet, but that is more to keep up the winter feeling.
