THOUGHT FOR TODAY
October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came,—
The Ashes, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The sunshine spread a carpet,
And every thing was grand;
Miss Weather led the dancing;
Professor Wind, the band....
The sight was like a rainbow
New-fallen from the sky....
George Cooper
As usual this granddaughter’s birthday is a long distance celebration. I was able to be with her last year on her birthday and that is what the pictures are of today.
Today is also World Habitat Day. When we hear the word habitat, we often think of places like the rainforest and broad open forests, the places that wild animals live and that are all too often endangered. Rarely do we consider that we ourselves also have habitats, though mostly we call them homes. Habitat for Humanity works side by side with their global partners to work to provide homes for everyone who needs one, and encouraging people to work towards a better future for themselves and the world
This week looks to be a warmer one for us with temps in the mid 70’s come mid week. The long range forecast says that after that we’ll be cooling down again in the 60’s which is normally what we would see in October. I’m going to enjoy the warmth while I can.
I hope you all have a GREAT start to this new week. Happy Monday!
WHAT’S NEW IN THE KITCHEN
There is a food holiday to celebrate every day of the year!

COUNTING MY GIFTS
I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
4279. for our Sweetheart, it’s her birthday today
4280. for Habitat for Humanity, working for a better future
4281. for temps above normal for this time of year
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,

Happy birthday to your Sweetheart :) I hope she has a great day. Years ago when we lived in Montana, son helped build a house for Habitat for Humanity. It was good work to see the progress on the house and know he had a bit of help with it :)
