coffee is on... nice cool morning here.... need to get the furnace cleaned out so we can turn it on. love it when we need the AC then the furnace on in the same week.... so far not much of a fall, hoping winter stays away for bit.... got to love the midwest.
Thanks for coffee. 55 degrees this morning and it's only going to go up 2 more degrees for the high today.
Nope not turning on the heat yet. For the past couple of days we actually turned the AC on because it was hot (well by hot I meant 80 degrees, not 100
).

Nice and cool here too. I love October, cool, crisp and just right. Haha, here we can run the air conditioner and the heater in the same day!

Cooler here, too. Maybe we could have October all year 
Michael blew thru last night between rain bands 5ish, heavy winds joined 9ish and all blew out about 3AM. Crisp, sunny and wet, not muddy, this morning. Since I was up late, turned alarm off before retiring and slept in. NICE.
Had to milk late by couple hrs due to rain -- I could get wet but doe wasn't participating! -- brought it in and ran warm milk thru cream separator. Frig already full of milk. All went well with that, thankfully. While I love the ability to do this, the clean up is tedious and time consuming with all the little parts to disassemble and replace. You sure want to do a lot at once. Then put it away for a while. So now I have this unit -- that I had wanted for a long, long time -- and I'm thinking why do I NEED all this cream??? I have always maintained it would be AWESOME to live in an area with friends who enjoy similar things and we could share such items....grinders, slicers, etc. -- as well as the products we have. 
OK, now that's off my chest. I am drinking coffee & enjoying a relaxing morning. Hope you all are enjoying your day. I'll see what I can get done today.

As far as brownies go, I'll eat what others leave....since I don't have teeth if they are a bit crusty, they just have to soak in the milk just a little longer.........have been known to eat batter, too.........it got down to 46° here last nite and is crisp out right now....I agree with @Baymule , we have and do use the heat and AC sometimes in the same day....when we lived in the trailer it was done quite regularly.....

Gosh Mini... if we lived closer I would absolutely participate in that share the wealth option! Course it might be a bit one sided as I don't have nearly the farm that you have...
So it's 55° way up there in northern New York state at RA's place and it's 58° as I sit here, and sprinkling rain there's something wrong with this picture... I don't mind the cooler temps, but wish it hadn't started being all wet again. Wasn't supposed to start raining till tomorrow evening, and then supposedly we have three to four days of it to look forward to. Least the AC is off. if it gets too damp, I may have to put on the heat for a bit. I have some windows open and it sure is nice to have the windows above the head of the bed open at night again. Love the fresh air.
Just finished breakfast... a banana and 3 brownies So I'll finish up here and continue drinking my big mug of tea. Hope everyone has a great day.

MY, my, my! So not good for you and so my kind of meal!
But it doesn't last like "real meal" does.

Well... shame on me, I finished that 8x8 pan of walnut brownies in 4 sittings over 2 days. Enough calories for a week or more
