Hello All!
My blogger friend, LeAnna over at ThoughtsnWhatnots is having a marvelous giveaway! I just wanted to tell you all about it. You can check it out by clicking on the link above.
Her blog is fun(ny) and enjoyable, poignant, interesting, and very down-to-earth. Ever since I started following LeAnna's blog, I have been stuck on it. It's like having a laid back but very real conversation with a very intriguing, vibrant young lady over a cup of coffee or mug of chocolate or whatever beverage you so desire! I would recommend reading her blog, yes I would!
Have a lovely day everyone! Christmas is in the air and we are officially starting the "12 Days of Christmas" today, if I am not mistaken! (If I am, please be sure to tell me so in the comments! lol) Now for some of that white powdery stuff they call snow which I'd gladly take over another rainy gray day . . . .

Where has Autumn Run Off To?
Dearest Friends,
Happy Happy Autumn! And Happy October (what is left of it that is!) I am so sorry for such a prolonged absence. I have been very busy but really, my internet was just being a beast and for some reason would not let me work on my blog, respond to comments, etc. for a very long while. It seems to be working finally today, so now that I'm thinking of writing a blog, I'm giving it a try!
Autumn is almost over already. For our region, it will likely still be around another month or so. Maybe a bit less. But I recall many Thanksgivings when it was hotter outside than inside....and we felt we were roasting ourselves instead of the turkey! ;-) Haha! But seriously, it can be very warm on Thanksgiving day. Personally, I like a crisp, cool fall day for Turkey Day because it just feels right to me, and makes the warm, savory dishes and scrumptious turkey and steaming hot mugs of cocoa, cider or tea just that much better. Can you tell I am anticipating Thanksgiving? Yes! I am. I admit, it is probably my favorite holiday of all, though it is tied with Christmas. Thanksgiving dinner is my favorite meal of all. Has been long as I can remember. Thankfully, when I attempted my first full-blown Thanksgiving dinner as a newlywed all by myself, it was a fabulous success! Just as my husband! :-) We had enough leftovers to feed an army and most of it freezes quite well so we had work lunches to last us several days, too. So yummy! I'm getting hungry now.....
I haven't read much lately just for fun. Rather sad I suppose. But I do read a ton in cycles, really. I love to read and just read and read and read until I can hardly stand to see a book . . . then I read some here and there. Then I start the process all over again. :-) I have enough reading with my full time Masters program just starting up, that in my free time I'd rather do something unrelated to reading or writing usually! However, I will finish the books I started in due time. And will do so gladly!
What's up in your end of the world? I have missed reading the blogs of all my dear bloggy friends. I've really only read one here and there and have such a lot of reading to do! But it's delightful! They are all so good!
If you care to leave a comment or just a nice "hello," please do! It's reassuring to see you are all still "out there" and that you have noticed that I've posted again and am back on the grid! ;-) Have a lovely fall day!

Friday is Fun Day!
Okay, so, what do I mean by that? I don't mean simply that Friday is, technically, the start of the much-appreciated weekend for the majority of people . . . . but that today, it's my "fun" day because I am changing things up a bit on my blog! I am sure you have already noticed that I changed the background to something pastoral. I loved the purple, still do! But there has been and likely always will be a soft spot in my heart for pastoral scenes. And this one just fits my bill. As you may have noticed, I also moved the "Daily Puppy" to the bottom of my blog . . . .I love me some cute puppies! So, it's hard to just get rid of them. Not sure I will. For now, they stay. :-) I also changed up the blogs I follow list a bit, adding a few new folks!
One who isn't technically "new" is Joe over at Portraits and Perceptions. His blog previously had a different name, but I just wanted to draw your attention to his new blog! He has some interesting thoughts to share and he also is a talented photographer! I enjoy reading his blog posts and looking at his photographic work.
That's pretty much it for me today, folks. Not a whole lot to share. I have moments of lovely inspiration of course, but I'm not always near my computer when I do and then, like a leaf in the wind, my moment of inspiration has blown away and I have to wait for the next one to come at a time when I can type it out on here! Of course, I love to share my inspirational moments with all of you! I also like to share my "goofy" moments and my more "somber" moments . . . . as much as you can take! I will say I am looking forward to this weekend, I will get to spend at least the majority of it in the company of the man I love, and that, folks, is sublime. :-)
For now, I will bid you adieu. Adios. Have a beautiful Friday, Friday is FUN day! And have a marvelous weekend and remember, it takes less muscles to smile than to frown!! Yes, you can quote me on that! ;-)

Happy World of Blogging!
Hello Friends!
I am thinking about those friends and associates of mine who blog and just wanted to say hello to them all! And invite anyone and everyone who wants to read my blog and become my "follower" to please, do so and soon! I feel "lonely" over here all by myself, otherwise! LOL
I realize my blog is simple. Basic. But it's what I can do and what I know how to do. Besides, I figure sharing your thoughts and impressions in simplistic form is just as important as sharing them on a fancy webpage! Not that I don't like fancy details because I do! However, I also appreciate simplicity. Thus, my simple blog.
I would love to hear from you! Your comments on what I'm writing, your thoughts about anything and everything pretty much! So drop in, follow, and let's talk!
Have a wonderful day! :-)
