Live your beliefs and you can turn the world around. ~ Henry David Thoreau The weather is turning colder, and it's election day here in the States.

Working from Home: Week 35
There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. ~ Ernest Hemingway It's the last week of October.

Haunted Handwarmers: Day 7
During the day, I don't believe in ghosts. At night I'm a little more openminded. It's the last week of October. Last week was really cold in the PNW. I need to keep knitting on these mitts.

There is a child in everyone of us who is still a trick or treater looking for a brightly light front porch. ~ Robert Brault The days are getting shorter and shorter.

Haunted Handwarmers: Day 4
Where there is no imagination there is no horror. ~ Arthur Conon Doyle This week the air has been chilly, and my lawn is now covered in downed leaves and tree limbs.
