October is almost a memory.. It went pretty slow around here. The leaves refused to turn until about ten days ago. Several storms and a couple of nights of 30's temps and WHAM we are into the great release. Leaves everywhere. The crew was mowing lawn last week and the grass was high, at this rate they may mow into November.
This month Sis still making trips to her home and moving things over. Hard to believe it but the clock is ticking and it all needs to be done before the snow flies and the time change takes place. Slowly her place is beginning to take shape. The house getting emptied. The cat was taken to the vet..that is just heart breaking, she misses her every day. She is trying to get used to apartment life,the people, the noises and the HEAT..We have free heat here and when it is on ...it is ON..no matter how warm it might get outside. I told her so, but she had to learn for herself that she would no longer need sweatshirts and heavy blankets living here. It's a wonderful warmth all winter long. She will love it , you just dress warm when you leave home.
Thirty plus years of helping seniors, I learned a whole lot. One thing I heard over and over again was ....." Never get old..it's awful." In the past few years I have begun to see what they were talking about. All of the sudden, I have glaucoma, AFIB, and aches and pains I never had before. My skin is thinning, my love of baking and cooking has vanished and I am making changes in diet and lifestyle. I got rid of things I will or never use, cleaned up my closets and shelves. I think 2020 will be a way more simple life for me. A sort of brand new start. I am looking forward to it.
I am sending many prayers to those in the fires in California. Terrible loss there and afraid more is to come. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I'm sorry she wasn't able to rehome her pet. Some of those apartment managements do allow small dogs and cats. I steadily visit someone who lives in a unit like that and I have seen quite a few pets.
It didn't start looking like Fall here either until last week! Usually the leaves are mostly down by now But many are still green.

Rose Lavelle isn`t just a great player and goal scorer. The little darlin` also looks just like a beautifully pale-complexioned, sweet, charming, magical, fawn-like, fairy-like, elf-like, pixie-like, lovely, cuddly, fluffy wittle bunny wabbit (thats when shes not cheating by diving inside the 18 yard-box when she hasn`t even been fouled to try to con and kid the referee and VAR into giving her a completely unfair PK of course!).
hewo! I cannot Believe your sister will be there :O
yep, no longer have to worry about the heating/hot water.
I have had a couple of afib but they go away in a minute and boy do i know what you mean about not wanting to cook, and i got rid of a ton of stuff only to stop at the darn thrift store every time i left mom Ugh! ow i am full of doodads again!
my skin isnt thinning but i Am getting gross brown mole things yuck.
((hugs)))
I completely agree with everything you said about Rose Lavelle but i still think her goal in the final was one of the best of the entire competition.
