This month seemed to have just flown by in a blink of an eye. This weekend is the first weekend I’ve had free to pretty much do nothing or do everything I want to do. In the busyness of the month, I haven’t had a chance to put together a proper “Autumn Bucket List” until this past week. So here it is, free off the press. This season will consist of the following fun items: […]
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day in the United States. It’s a day to see family, friends and eat lots of food. Thanksgiving isn’t one of my favorite holidays and since my Mom passed away, I always wish for the holidays of the past. I miss her most at the end of the year.

It’s here. I’ve literally been counting the days. Fall has finally arrived and I couldn’t be happier. It’s the season of happy for me. It’s the time of year when I have an extra skip in my step.

Pumpkins start to appear […]
