Bits and Pieces of October

 Our lives are like quilts
Bits and pieces
joy and sorrow
stitched with love.

Bits and Pieces of October.

  

Black and white is salt and pepper of colors,
for life tastes bland without them.

I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.

Soon I'll be joining my daughter and 
her girl scout troop for another cemetery tour 
in Alabama, and I'm excited to see the costumed 
actors and hear their stories.

Gnomebody loves you!

Autumn time is football time,

and sudden fast moving thunderstorms!

There are four seasons
winter, spring, summer and
football!


Behold Cardboard Art!

Cardboard has always been a storage thing.
Great for shipping, gifting and storing.
Cardboard has no nutritional value, if it did
 it'd be too tasteless to eat anyway.
But cardboard is great for creating 
silly, scary or happy faces.

The great garden protector 
his job is nearly finished for this season.

Hello sweet Mr. Robot!
Isn't he adorable? Making good use of old things.

It's delightful when your imaginations come true,
isn't it?
L.M. Montgomery

Isn't this just the perfect picture of autumn?
Can anyone have too many Jack-O-Lanterns?
I think not! 

When witches go riding
and black cats are hiding
and black dogs are seen
the moon laughs and whispers,
'tis near Halloween.




I still feel that delightful essence of  childhood
 and the excitement in carving artful faces and bringing these
pumpkins to life and you can't forget the smell of pumpkins in the air!

Oh what fun it is to watch a magician perform 
his own special tricks for treats!


In the art of magic,
keeping a secret is the greatest sleight.

Just having a certain kind of attitude can be magic.
Matt Posner

October reads aren't just for children or the young at heart!


Thanks for stopping by and brightening my day.
Take good care of you.

“We all have an inner voice, our personal whisper from the universe. All we have to do is listen -- feel and sense it with an open heart. Sometimes it whispers of intuition or precognition. Other times, it whispers an awareness, a remembrance from another plane. Dare to listen. Dare to hear with your heart.”
