on my balcony. It is time again to bring some of my plants inside the house because it is getting colder every day. At the moment, we have only 16°C. Sometimes gloomy and sometimes a bit sunny. I am glad it is not windy. Autumn is here and I can feel the coldness in my feet coming to my knees although I am wearing socks. I have to go out this week to take photos of the Autumn leaves on the trees. I love watching their brown to golden yellow color. My Sedum flowers are changing their colors, too. They are in dark read now. I have just transferred my aloe vera pots inside the living room as they don´t like the cold weather. My bell peppers are still bearing fruits but I will let them stay outside on the balcony. I don´t have many chores to do except putting the clothes in the washing machine. Tomorrow is a walking day again for me at the lake but I will suggest to my friend that we should go to the Rhine river for a change. Have a nice Tuesday mylotters. What are you up to today? Any special appointment? Thanks for reading.

Well I don't know what are the effects of winter season in plants, but it is good to take them inside. Hope you have a nice day Thelma!

The tropical plants like aloe vera will die when I just let it outside the balcony during the Autumn and winter season. Have a nice day to you, too @jvicentevalera. Thank you.

No, it will not get crowded as I will put the things that I don´t need in the cellar for keeping safe until next year. Thanks @msdivkar

Its getting colder here too but I love this time of year. It's not too hot and it's not too cold and perfect sleeping weather. It's so pretty when the trees and leaves change color.

@thelme55 I found that it was chilly when I went to bed last night and got another blanket to put on the bed to cover me up with. Do you have a lot of room to put them when you bring them inside for the winter? It is Wednesday here and I am working on the computer and watching Bloodline on TV.

We have 3 huge windowsills where I can put my plants inside the house. I hope Bloodline is a good movie. Thank you @Hannihar.

@thelme55 That is great that you have places to put them in the winter inside. Bloodline is not a movie. It is a TV series. It is fine.

Yes, its that time of year to prepare the plants for winter. I am loving this weather, it is now cool enough for me to actually work in the yard since the summers are too hot to go out.
