Writing Prompt- October 8th

October 8th
"The air was crisp"
When Sadie woke up the next morning, she noticed that the air was crisp and cool, and fall has arrived. She went over to window, and opened it to breathe in the fresh air. She walked around her bedroom wanting more, more do with the day than she had planned.
Sadie got ready for the day, and went out side to rake some leaves.

Try 2:
After keeping the window open overnight, Sadie woke up to feel that the air was crisp outside.  Autumn, was starting, she thought.  She snuggled down in her covers just a bit longer to keep the warmth in.
After about 20 extra minutes, she sighed heavily, knowing that she had to get up and spend a day completeing her chores.
She pulled the covers off and gave a stretch, and when she stood she stretched again, making sure all the kinks were out of her body.
Sadie walked over to her window and closed it.

liked the second one. The first one just reminded me that I need to rake leaves...

Thanks! The second one just seemed to flow better. I knew I wasn't happy with the first prompt, so I tried it again.

I may not do them on the dates they were left, but I do find just writing these little things are making me think outside the box ever so slightly.
