My week started with a trip to the drug store. It really started on the Friday before when I began to feel no so hot. By Sunday I was not a happy camper. My head felt like it was full of cotton and generally all I wanted to do was sit cuddled up under a blanket.

I’m a confirmed Alka Seltzer Plus advocate. For me it just works better than anything else I have tried. I also love the Halls cherry lozenges. They are packed with vitamin C, Zinc and Echinacea. Plus they are very tasty and help with your sore throat!

I was feeling a bit better by Tuesday, enough to give my orange marmalade a taste. I was so pleased with the results. Click here for the recipe if you are so inclined.
Not much photo worthy happened or maybe I was just milking the cold. I did take advantage of the situation to get a bit of rest.

I have a tiny bit of fall happening in the back yard. There is not much of a fall showing but the Crepe Myrtles add a nice little pop of color.

Saturday morning turned out to be absolutely glorious. I was feeling much better so the whole family packed into the car and we made a day trip up to the north Georgia mountains to enjoy some of the fall color.
It was a beautiful cool cloudless day and the fall foliage was stunning. God did some great work across the North Georgia Mountains.
We returned home with a few bags of apples, some sorghum syrup and some peanut brittle. I think there may be a pie or two and maybe some home made apple sauce in the very near future.
Well that’s it for my week. I hope you all are enjoying all the fall color and taking advantage of the change in season.
For ore 365 fun y’all head over to Sara’s and link up.

Gorgeous photos of the countryside!
Glad you're feeling better; take care to stay that way!
Have a great week :)
Love the mountain pics! And I'm glad you felt well enough to go.
I don't like marmalade, but that looks so yummy I might try it anyway :)
your pictures are beautiful!! take care of yourself-- it's too early in the season to be getting sick already! ;-)
I've never even tried Alka Seltzer for a cold. I may have to remember that when the time comes... which i'm sure is soon.
Nothing more beautiful then fall trees!
Glad you're feeling better.
The fall colors are lovely! Wow--your pictures are always so vivid. I am searching for McIntosh apples here and can't find any to make applesauce.
Beautiful post.
Saw the following on a plaque recently:
Delicious AUTUMN!
My very soul is wedded to it.
And if I were a bird I would
fly about the earth
seeking successive Autumns.

I really love the N. Georgia pictures. I do miss not living in Marietta anymore.
Beautiful fall in Georgia!! It's funny, as much as I adore the colors on the trees, it's always the amazing blue sky that just blows me away.
I've had a cold, too. I almost NEVER get sick anymore. But I guess FOUR kids blowing their snot everywhere for a week proved to be too much for even MY immune system. ;)
