Halloween and the wind is blowing, the leaves are flying. It is a sort of sunny, sort of cloudy day. Maybe rain later this evening or tonight into tomorrow morning. Perfect weather for the trick or treaters to wear their costumes without a coat or jacket. The temperature is 78 Degrees and it is 5:08 p.m. In the house it is much cooler. I have a sweater on, of course. But, we didn’t get much sun today so it didn’t get very warm in here.
We are all set for the trick or treaters. We have a big bowl of candy, the pumpkin out front has an orange candle shining through its eye, nose and mouth, and the scarecrow light is in the front window. I hope that we get some cute little ones again this year. People drive from all over to hit our little neighborhood. I hope the one family that were here last year comes back. they had two little one who were cute as can be, all dressed up in cut outfits and enjoying all the fun and candy. They just got to look. Mommy said that they could have a piece when they got home.
It is hard to believe it is the last day of October. This month has gone by way to fast. It has been a busy month and I am not quite ready for it to slip into the history books . Of course, I wasn’t asked if I was ready. I hope to be more on the ball in November and get the projects done that I have going. Of course, they take time and patience, so that means spending more time on them and less time on other things like dusting and such. Housework, you know. Like dinner time. Leftovers tonight.
Quote of the day: “It is an extraordinary and beautiful thing that God, in creation…works with the beauty of matters; the reality of things; the discovery of senses, all five of them; so that we, in turn, may hear the grass growing; see a face springing to life in love and laughter….The offerings of creation…our glimpses of truth.” Madeleine L’Engle, 1918 – 2007, American Writer.
Have a great rest of your Thursday. Enjoy all the ghosts and goblins, witches and monsters….and candy.
Be safe, have fun.
Blessings
