THE FROST IS ON THE PUMPKIN.......
The weather has been so crazy this last month, but today it is cold and gray, and I am thinking a bad winter lies ahead. The garden peeps showed up today to trim back the ivy from the house, which makes my husband a happy man. There is much clean up to be done, and a brick walk to be laid, but I am happy that there is a beginning today.
Halloween is next week, and to get everyone in the mood I am sharing a story and picture by my friend Kathy Hooper, who writes the most wonderful stories about 2 frogs, Francoise and Nibs. I took Francoise to Paris with me in January, and I do believe she did have a wonderful time.
I ASKED FOR ALL THINGS THAT I MIGHT ENJOY LIFE....

       A Halloween Clue
   From the Collection of short stories

     “The Little Green Gang”

        By Kathleen Hooper

               

          It was mid October in the Sonoran Desert.  Daylight had grown shorter and the evenings were much cooler.  Fall had definitely arrived.

          Many homes were decorated with dazzling orange and black lights and all sorts of spooky things.  This meant one special thing to Nibs. Halloween was coming!

          Farley would definitely be a cowboy but Nibs couldn’t quite decide. He loved writing poetry and thought it would be fun to give Farley some clues about his decision.   

             The Little Ghosts

                   By Nib
 Five little ghosts were sitting in a tree
      Two fell off and that left three
     Another little ghost decided to jump

 Landing in the leaves with a soft ker-plunk!

     Two little ghosts remained in the tree
  With a lighted pumpkin bright as could be
     They sat and sat waiting patiently
       For a special little ghost…me.

 Can you guess what I’ve decided to be

            Happy Halloween

 

 

 

 

Flu Shot.......if you are planning to have a flu shot this season please consider having your shot at a Walgreens.......the staff was kind and professional, and the best part is that Walgreens has a program through the UN Foundation called "Get a Shot, Give a Shot" vaccine initiative, which is providing up to 3 million vaccines to children in developing countries.
It is a win for all.BE YOURSELF......EVERYONE ELSE IS TAKEN
PUT ON YOUR PEARLS GIRLS, AND HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND
