Hi!
Happy Thanksgiving to all of my fellow Canucks and Happy Birthday to our little Laney!
The top photo depicts a scene oh so very common around here this time of year. The geese are on their way to a warmer climate. Smart geese.
Although, the powers that be are predicting a milder than normal winter for this neck of the woods, with less than normal snow fall...... I sure hope they're right........or at least close.............
The final two photos, as you can guess, depict our little peanut celebrating her second birthday. She is going to be such a sweet big sister...........
Two years, another reminder of how fast time flies by....................
Well, this week was another busy one.............
The shop is hopping .............so thankful.......
With the help of our daughter and a lady who is able to do magic with a needle and thread, the Halloween costumes are complete.....................
Did some rehearsing...............
Killed a dust bunny or five...............
Did a bit of writing..............
Had the tv on in the background and became well schooled in the trials and tribulations of the people we call "celebrities.".................................
Yeah, about that..............."celebrity" trials and tribulations........................
From what I gathered, it has been a busy week for Justin Bieber's nether regions. Kanye West's ego, Donald Trump's hair, and Bill Cosby's misguided, misogynistic, past decisions.
First up..... the "Biebs"...............paparazzi got a picture of his junk while he was in Bora Bora..............blah blah blah...........he gets to be in Bora Bora. Not saying they have the right, but they follow him like a dog follows a snacking toddler, you'd think a guy like that would take a few precautions. Like not walking outside naked............just a thought..............
Then, Kanye..............ooh Kanye............says he wants to run for president in 2020.............not sure that would be great for America as a nation.......a president whose abilities seem to be somewhat limited to trying to convince others how great he is.......wait......Donald Trump...........
Ah yes.......Donald Trump............. he is a busy guy, but apparently not nearly as busy as his hair. I guess someone photoshopped his locks onto a few different, not so flattering images.............I really don't like when someone is singled out or picked on, but, sometimes this thing called Karma comes knocking at your door...............
Then, there is Mr. Cosby..................I'm not sure I have words to express the disappointment I feel. Of course, I don't know the man, but somehow I feel a loss for the man I thought he was. My heart hurts for the women who have stepped forward, they have nothing to gain by telling their stories. No one would volunteer for the scorn and scrutiny they have endured without cause. It saddens me further to know that the only reason a light has been thrown on the case is because of what he does for a living. So many still creep in the dark, faces unfamiliar, names unknown. Not famous, but never forgotten,
As for the days ahead....................
Do some cooking for our kids coming home for Thanksgiving..............
The shop will be busy............................
Rehearse for our Halloween show............
Squeeze grandbabies.......................
Write!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well that about does it for another week. Until next time, I'll leave you with this wish...............
May your meal be greeted by grateful bellies, your pies greeted by grins.
May your house be full of hugs and giggles, catching up, and board game wins.
May the gratitude felt on this day of giving, remain throughout the months to come.
May we not take for granted, anything, for the lives we have are but dreams for some.
May the sun set upon you and yours, having graced you with an incredible day.
May the sun rise then, to find you still smiling, great memories to help carry you through life's fray.
Until next time............
