A brand new month! October! As Anne Shirley would say:

That being said – today has been cold and dark; cloudy and rainy. Sometimes the rain came down in sheets. So glad I didn’t have to leave the house at all, except to get the mail. And good news, finally. My prescription came! It feels like it took forever. I’m going to take the first one at bedtime so I don’t have to worry about effects. Dr. Cole did assure me that it should be unremarkable except for the results! Yea!

I did keep busy all day – changing sheets and doing laundry. Ironing, writing, emails. We had one little break in the rain, and I backed the car out of the garage and swept it out. It was in dire need of sweeping! Didn’t wash it, of course, but it was dirtier inside than out. Then I ironed my new curtain panel for the kitchen door. It will take getting used to, because I don’t have curtains in any room in the house – only valances. I have blinds in the bedrooms when needed. But it will do exactly what I need, and is an exact match to the valances in there! I do, though, have an extra panel! Who knows what I may come up with for that down the road!

When the curtain is closed it blocks the heat and the sun.
Curtain is open so I can see outside!

It felt so chilly in here today. I decided to turn on my little electric space heater. I feel warmer already!

I did take time to watch a favorite movie – Love Strikes Twice. I did that while I was ironing and studying my mail, etc. It’s funny and entertaining.

I had Gen & Zane’s anniversary written down as October 3rd but I saw a post today that leads me to believe it was the 1st – so just a picture to say I was thinking about them and about the wonderful marriage they had. I was honored to be part of it!

How young they were – but Gen still looks exactly the same. A beauty that never ages!

October 1 – Did your High School have cheerleaders? What did they wear? “I really don’t remember any cheerleaders. Someone would lead all of the school in a cheer when some player would make a basket.” Sounds like they had team spirit!

Calendar inspiration – Peanuts. How important to remember this, with all the world being so unsettled around us! I can count my blessings – can you?

TOMORROW October 2nd is:

I don’t think I’ve ever named my car, but I’ve know people who have! Tomorrow I had plans to go with Di & Shannon to Jennings Environmental Education Center in Slippery Rock for a program: Finding Ferns and Their Friends. But none of us wanted to be outside in this rainy chill so we’re going to wait for something else. In the meantime, I plan to get some writing done tomorrow! Have a blessed day in the house of the Lord. God bless!
