November 1, 2023

 Well tomorrow is Jim's big birthday - 70 years old!  It is so hard to believe we are as old as we are!  And I'll soon be 65.  I made him a cake, homemade bread, homemade soup, today. I'll be working tomorrow but he can open his present later when I get home.



Our kind neighbor changed out our five outside lights in the last two days.  We have the best neighbors!  All five of our LED dusk to daylight lights had gone out and they were the kind that didn't have bulbs.  I was able to get these really nice looking outside lanterns from Costco, that use LED bulbs.  So happy about that.  When they go out I'll just pop in another bulb.  And I love this style. It seems to go better with our home.
We only had three trick or treaters last night.  I was so disappointed.  Our little neighbors boys came over and a teenager.  But we did get a pic of the grandkids when they were on their way to a big fall event on campus where they live. I'm sure they had a ball! Hermoine and Mario.
I got the idea to get out Jim's big fake teeth and try them on Puzzle!  it was a hoot but she only wanted to eat them.  She had me laughing so hard last night.  She came parading into the living group with one of my headbands in her mouth.  I took it away from her and it wasn't five minutes when she comes in wagging her tail with another one!  Evidently I had left two of them on my bathroom vanity.  She can reach anything on there now.  She was so proud of herself.
This dog is such a joy and a blessing.  We've had some really nice fall weather lately.  Turned cold last night but today was still beautiful.  The sky the other night was so very pretty.


I have started a new sewing project but haven't gotten enough done to show yet.  I've put the Bonnie Hunter Morning Glories quilt on hold while I try to finish this little Christmas throw quilt.

  1. Cake, homemade bread, and homemade soup sound like the perfect birthday! Your Puzzle is so, so cute. I love when they so proudly bring our things to us, wagging their tails - lol! The "grands" look adorable. Your home is lovely at evening light, love the new sconces.
