Everything else is fattening. And since I can’t do much right now due to stupid pain, I spend time gazing out watching snow.

To look a lot like Christmas with a new kitty!
Every day we are putting them back up, rescuing stray balls. But wouldn’t trade it for anything. I really needed Sammie in my life.
At what we woke to this morning
Good things my daughter gave me her new Wisconsin fleece-lined hat!
I hope however you celebrate the 31st of October (and November 1st) it is happy and fulfilling.
Mine has been full of journaling and memories. Oh, and the traditional layer of snow to start the morning. Halloween always seems to be the first snow that sticks a minute (Getting ready for the night of writing dangerously, NaNoWriMo)
While folks are sharing beautiful pics of Fall colors, we’re showing naked trees and a prediction for rain/snow showers today here in Oregon Outback. (I’ll share snow pics if it happens. But, for now):
But Super Sammy wins at the three-legged Spider game. He’s a strong little guy. And will probably be neutered around the 9th of November. We’re still working on the other friendly sibling that is a little darker than him.
Now. I need to bring up one of my favorite things to do in November. Please, I try hard to keep my blog peaceful so I hope not to make others uncomfortable. But… I plan to do NaNoWriMo as usual. I look at it as a competition with only myself. I win no matter if I hit 50K or not just in trying. I believe it is best that way. If another wants to use AI, that’s their business. I feel they are cheating themselves of the amazing creative juices that can flow within.
The other NaNo issue of the forums. I never go there. I find it distracting from the writing process, though an occasional research may send me there. I’m sad to learn that it hasn’t been safe for the young people. The organization says they are working on a better, safer haven for everyone. I’m glad my offspring are middle aged now. It’s such a hard time to raise little ones and it should be up to us, the village, to help kids be safer. By eliminating places to be creative we are making it harder on everyone. Cancel society seems set in cancelling everything. Being aware with love for our fellow beings and speaking up to those who would be harmful to others, I think it’s the only way to learn and grow. I hope that others will join me in the month of writing furiously regardless of where you journal your goals and numbers.
Now I’m behind on reviews again, so I better get busy.
Oh, PS, it snowed a little today, and the trees have lost newly yellowed leaves. Dare we say Winter is here?
The quail are enjoying the shelter from the mesquite.
I woke up early to the best snow of this year. What? It’s May!!!
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “note.” Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!
Let it be noted, that I’m not wanting to write right now. It has been a barometric-changing all day. Windy, rainy, and it’s snowing now.
All of this made my joints hurt and brain foggy.
The foggy brain didn’t think that knitting and tinking alllll day was ergonomically bad. How smart is that?
BUT, I finished the Ukulele strap. So as soon as I finish this note, I’ll pull out the Uke and attach the strap.
Then listen for the chords and strums and licks, and notes.🎶🎵🪈🎸
December in January
Yesterday I was singing about April Showers and May Flowers.
At midnight amid the rain there were huge snowflakes the size of ping-pong balls.
This morning:
Now we’re down to the weeds and mud.😏
So I worked on my beach diamond painting.
Dear Winter,
March should be a Post Script. Not a whole new letter.
As pretty as it is, this is a November to January thing.
Though those who are in the South are getting feet. We finally managed a half footer! My son and brother have shoveled several times today.
I brightened my day with
Anyway, I played along with your tardy snow. Come back in late October.
Yours Truly,
Human
