Everyone, have a fantastic evening! I'm heading out to get my girl from the groomer!! See you all at the Pines. I'm assuming Carl will have The Great Pumpkin on the BIG screen!!!

You too, Holiday!
Hope Gracie had a nice time at the spa!

Hope you stay cool today, HmG~
And see Fall-like temps very soon!
We turned our AC off yesterday, it's been an interesting season temperature wise, so far. Hope we all get some cooler weather before it gets really cold.
Hope your errands go well~
Enjoy your time at the library! I love it there!
Have a blessed day

Thank you so much Snowflake ~
Hope your day is going well!
Keeping you, Adrian & Harlowe in my prayers <3

good morning, it is going to be warm here again today too.
I have to go into work today in about half hour so i should get off here and go find something to pack for lunch !
have a fantastic day !

Thanks Star, hope you're having a fantastic day as well!!!

Thank you . Have a great day!

Thanks Sam <3

Sounds like a nice day lined-up HMG. What kind of books are you into? I've always loved suspense/detective type novels and historical novels. I haven't picked up a book in a while though but with an iPad now, during my upcoming vacation I want to try an e-book to see how I like reading on a tablet. Enjoy your day and hope you find something great at the library.

I haven't picked up a book in a while either, I'm just so tired at night from waking up with Maggie. Before I stopped I was completely addicted to a Christian fiction author, Karen Kingsbury. I've read just about everything she's ever written. I went in the opposite direction today and decided to pick up a spooky Stephen King book in honor of Halloween. Hopefully I'll be able to stay awake to read it. You'll have to let me know if you like the e-books, I haven't tried that yet. I hope your day is going well!

Good morning HMG!!
Stay cool today! Fall temps are on their way.... Did you figure out your Thanksgiving/Christmas menu? Probably doesn't seem as festive to do when it's 83º, huh?
Have a great day!

Thanks Holiday!
Still working on my Thanksgiving/Christmas menu plans, I'm getting there. Still can't believe it's that time of the year. It's so exciting. And yes, it's way too warm. It needs to cool off!

Have a great day HMG...I cannot believe this weather!

Thanks SnowflakeMom! Its still warm out. I want to take Maggie for another walk but I'm going to wait until the sun starts to set. So crazy. Hope you're having a nice day!

My brother had taken 2 cookies for snack last night. He put his dish down, turned around for a few seconds to do something on his phone. When he turned back around to take his first cookie out he said wait didn't I take 2 cookies? There was only 1 in his dish...View attachment 32423

That's hilarious. So stinkin' cute!

Good Wednesday Morning MMC! Happy Pines Day! Well I got a text from a friend of mine that her father passed away on Monday. He wasn't sick or anything. He had a massive heart attack on Sunday and passed away Monday. Sad. I don't know her for too long but she's a good person and I feel bad about it. I always feel when something bad "out of nowhere" happens it's worse than when you can prepare yourself for it. Maybe not for some people but that's how I am at least. Anyway, sorry to bum anyone out! It's another nice warm day here. The last one before the October chill returns. Hope everyone has a good day! Since I bummed you out with my post I'll post something funny in a moment.

So sorry to hear about your friends father. Sending up prayers for her and her family.

Good Wednesday afternoon, Christmas friends!

It's been a busy day again, sorry I'm late posting. Russell is having more and more trouble with motor skills, so I've been doing some keying for him this morning. Bless his heart. I wish I could do more for him.

Jacob's band was awesome last night at the county fair! There was a professional sound stage crew on site ,and they had the instruments and microphones mixed perfectly. The crowd loved it!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Continued prayers for Russel ~

I picked up Salem's Lot. I'm going to watch the debate tonight so I probably won't start it until tomorrow. I came home with a couple of cookbooks as well. I love flipping through recipes
