I am sorry you won't be able to celebrate with your son and family, as in past years, but, in the words of that famous WWII song, "we'll meet again". As I told my daughter, I celebrated two Christmases without my mother before she was able to join me, over here. If nothing else, this will be one of those "Do you remember when?" holidays you'll reminisce about, in the future. :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-6272022104683951472020-10-09T17:28:35.438-07:002020-10-09T17:28:35.438-07:00Lovely to see the roses!

And your daughter's latest drawing reminds me that I am going to the dental hygienist next week for a cleaning! 😅<br />This is our Thanksgiving weekend but restrained by Covid as we have some hot spots in Ontario and we are advised to celebrate only with our own household members. Hard for those on their own, of course, if their loved ones are far off, but you know all about that, too. (Hugs) We'll get back to normal one day, who knows when!Bushladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-25336192948726179352020-10-09T16:48:55.832-07:002020-10-09T16:48:55.832-07:00Thank you, Susie.

It's a Double Delight rose and one of my favorites.<br /><br />I haven't had many Trick or Treaters in recent years and I don't think there will be any, this year. <br /><br />I'm glad you will be able to drop off your ballots at the town hall, easily. I was very happy to receive my ballot in the mail, because, almost every day, there is another news story about finding mail, including ballots, in trash cans, dumped in alleys, piled in front of apartment buildings, etc., instead of being delivered to individual mail boxes! It is rather worrisome (as if we didn't have enough to worry about!).<br /><br />You are getting a lot of yard/outside work done! Probably a good idea to get it done before it starts snowing. Were you able to contact the tree trimmers?

I am wearing a pair of slacks, socks, and a poncho over a long sleeved blouse, but, my hands are cold!

We normally get a fair amount of trick or treaters. I'm not sure why this year will bring but I don't think I will be participating. <br /><br />I dropped off our application for an absentee ballot for the upcoming election at our town hall a couple of days ago. <br />We are lucky that we live in a relatively small town and the town hall is close and we can easily drop off our ballots once they are received. <br /><br />I got the scrubbing all done on the side of the garage and today I trimmed some bushes along the back fence. 56stepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714155300369089630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-19217130311988988532020-10-09T09:36:20.343-07:002020-10-09T09:36:20.343-07:00Aww the praying mantis had probably just gotten so...Aww the praying mantis had probably just gotten someone pregnant 🥺Akashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01052831044292193813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-54179683445482208002020-10-09T08:17:40.832-07:002020-10-09T08:17:40.832-07:00Love hearing a mockingbird!
