Good morning..

Rain most of the day today ,starting temp is 37°.

Not sure what will be today, will know better tonight.

Jenny good to see you.

Jane, does Cooper "hog" the bed like Babe and Jesse do??

Making this a quickie.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Good Morning Everyfriend!  I came by and read and then had to leave and take Cooper for his morning walk.  We met the kids at the bus and it was kind of fun!  Today is the day that the elementary schools wear costumes to school and all the kids at the bus stop were dressed up!  FUN!

JENNY, so nice to see you drop by!  You're one of the few here that I've met in person and it's always nice to "see" those people again.  That was way back at the Williamsport Bash and it was really nice to meet you and your husband!  I'm glad you're getting good news from the doctors.

AMY, Cooper isn't a bed hog but he is a cuddler so I have to make my spot solid and then he moves in and cuddles!  If I have to move him, he stays where I move him until I settle then he moves in again!

Don't have anything special on the agenda for today but I'm thinking I might throw a load in the washer.  Then again, I might just settle in with my book and read!  Nice to have a day free to do that!

SHIRLEY, I hope all's well with you!  I pray for you and everyone else every day!

I wish you all a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow!

Good morning, minus six outside, and I'm up having my first cup of coffee, and Farrah's fed, and I've gone through my calls and texts, so it's on to some mundaneness before tackling those phone calls this morning.

Today has been awesome!! We decided to take a trip to a town 86 miles away. On the way I had to break for a big bird that was flying down onto the road for highway buffet!!! Hokey teddy bear it was a beautiful  bald  headed eagle!!! Said to Kyle not many people have had to break for that! We have braked for moose, deer, fox skunk,dogs,cats,racoons,squirrels chippy and crows but never an eagle!  On we went and stopping to get gas I used my airmiles points plus CAA is taking .30 cents a litre off , instead of paying 68.50 for gas I paid $7.26 gotta like that! We shopped , had lunch then headed home....but I had one more stop to make. Into Fabricland I went came out with 9 meters of fabric,plus my membership and paid $12.66 instead of $211.00. Got to love gift cards 
Nice to get home unpacked and now to enjoy the rest of the day.

🎃🎃🎃 HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃🎃🎃

JANE, Bob and I often speak about the wonderful time we had at the PA BASH, and yes, meeting you was one of the highlights🥰🥰. Sadly, so many of the attendees have passed.  Thank you for the nice welcome. 

AMY, how exciting to have to BREAK for such a regal bird...a Bald Eagle 🦅....WOW.  You are right, we often have to break for other wonders of the world but a nice first for this guy.  Good for you getting your petrol at a nice discount.  Yea for you and the new fabric🥰. That is awesome 👏 I have been wondering if your son is having any issues getting diesel for his truck.  They have been talking a lot here about the shortage😩

Have a good evening EVERYFRIEND 🥰

Jenny

I've had a nice day today!  Cooper was here overnight and we went throught our usual day and I did a lot of reading and not much else.  I cleaned up dishes and putt stuff away but mostly it was just walks with Cooper and reading!  It was a pretty nice day until early evening and then we got some misty rain which is supposed to be here off and on overnight!

JENNY!  Williamsport where the Bash was is right up the road from where I live now and I grew part way up in South Williamsport!  I had to be there and meeting everyone was fun.  I remember you and Bob especially because we shared a table a couple of times and our motel rooms were close. 

I'm off to the haystack pretty soon.  Tomorrow Cathy is taking me to the store to stock up on the stuff I need to make my Christmas fruit cake.  I have to get it baked and stored so it can have time to age before Christmas.  I always do this and then I take most of it to church at Christmas in my mother's name.  It was her big donation back when I was growing up and over the years, I always helped her.  When I make it, she's always in the kitchen with me!  And when it needs it's final stirring with a good strong arm, my Dad joins us just as he did when Mom made the cakes!

I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow and may God bless us, every one!
