What's In Your Heart? Follow the Path


One of the things I love to do is give.  It is a joy to me.  And if I  can find out what is needed and meet that need, that makes my day.  I have a bit of Santa likeness in me.  I am not trying brag, I just truly like it.  

Above is my brother Jon who's dog ate at his jacket.  My brother doesn't have much, he is practically homeless, and even in CA it gets cold.  So here he is in his new jacket.  I had to guess his size but it worked out well.  Made my day!  

I look around at what I have and I think it's too much.  I always am trying to decide what I truly need to keep and what to let go of to benefit someone.  

As I look at what I might do in retirement next year, I am wondering how I might be able to take this interest a little further.  Is it time to volunteer for something I believe in?  We will see what doors open.

Autumn

Didn't post yesterday but I was going to mention how beautiful this time of year is.  September with summer slipping away and long shadows, October is brilliant with color, and November is subtle and subdued with coziness.  As the wind or rain chases out the last of the leaves, one can see winter coming in.  I am grateful for this time of year and enjoy each moment.

Christmas Time

Image
The fall season of orange, gold, and brown is suddenly over.  Pumpkins are put away.  But we continue to give thanks. It's been a lovely autumn.  October was brilliant with color in the trees.  November has been subdued but cozy.  Beautiful sunny days were gorgeous. Kari has been sick this week and didn't go to work Tuesday and Wednesday.  She's been left alone to sleep.   We are looking forward to decorating for Christmas.  We already had a few Christmas things out mixed in with the Thanksgiving decorations at our house.

Catching Up

Sunday was a really busy day.  I felt it was time to return to church in person and all 4 of us were there.  I introduced my family to my friends. Next was Costco to get Regan's cake for her grad party. At 2 pm we were at Tim and Angie's at the party.  It was great seeing everyone again.   Monday I got tires and an oil change for my car.  We also checked on the rebate we got in September.  I have to call the Refund Center tomorrow. Today I got the $189 rebate and off to Lowe's we went.  We bought things for the house and garden.  I plan to plant seeds tomorrow.
