I'm A LIttle Sad Today

Sorry my photos are not perfect the way I planned but considering I am indoors on a cold and rainy Monday with ten pets. Mr. Kitty is on a weigh loss plan, Rose is on a kidney disease plan and  Bandit just needs full attention.

I shot these random shots and tried to clean them up. No such luck with this band of feline and canine friends. So stop by Aw.......Mondays and enjoy some smiles.

These puppies are growing so much and they hate the cold so they have to be coaxed to go outside while wearing their fashionable sweaters to stay warm. Loki is gaining weight and he is a very independent fellow. He likes to lead the pack. The smallest yet mightiest.

Wouldn't it be grand if people behaved and let everyone be entitled to their own opinion? Peace is what I prefer along with Quiet too!

Ha Ha Ha! I'm not interested in celebrity stars, in fact most of them annoy me. Act or go into politics. No one needs your opinion and anyone voting because celebrities suggest their favorite candidates, oh brother! That is sad!

I never seem to get through the alphabet without something stopping me. So I Am going to start with the first three letters of this series on Alphabet Soup for the Soul.

Some Granny Smith Apples still on the tree. Do you know there are about 7500 varieties of apples worldwide? About 100 varieities grow commercially in the US.About 2500 grow throughout the US including Michigan and Washington state.

Apple humor although I think people need to limit their children on electronics. It is a sad world when kids are buried in some electronic device.

I still love basbeall but if it starts to go the way of the NFL and other sports where too many cry baby overpaid players whine continually then I will find something more intelligent to do.

Sad our Colorado Rockies lost their playoff bid but grateful to see them go as far as they did. I will root for my beloved New York Yankees and the Cleveland Indians and Atlanta Braves. This gives my sister and I something to chat about and boy can we chat away!

My father would have loved the Colorado Rockies but his heart always belonged to the Yankees.

I am experiencing baseball withdrawls already. It's hard to understand unless you have the opportunity to be at the ballpark and watch your favoriute players play the game.

C is for candy, a sweet treat that will be filling bags for children all across our country in a few short weeks. Do you like candy? Do you have a favorite?

Candy humor.

Love this verse. Made me smile on this rainy Monday.

A smiling devoted Bronco fan. He is happy even though they have been losing. His cute shirt says " I drool orange and blue, Broncos".

Harrison is an artist and a cowboy. He lives in a super cool house these days with lots of land to roam and animals to see. My oh my he is growing up too quickly. But he will be a big brother come CHRISTmas.

Today is a federal holiday. It is funny all the comotion about this day yet many of those same people take it off with pay. I remember it fondly because I was about 10 when I learned a lot about politics. My auntie Mima catered the Columbus Day dinners. It was fun to make a few dollars by helping out. I set up the tableware as it was a sit down dinner back then that consisted of the best homemade fried chicken and spaghetti and meatballs. Although she was my dad's oldest sister and the second to last to pass away she married an Italian and she cooked like a dream. I met my favorite Colorado governor at one of these events , Dick Lamm. His predictions about the immigration crisis are coming true. He was a very brilliant man and I still pour over so many of his writing.

I'm going to have an apple as a snack and head over to read some Aw.....Mondays blog posts. I challenge anyone who use to blog to please come back and do it. I want to thank Michele Luttrell for this awesome windmill post. I love this and my hubby loves a windmill. It was one of his favorite things from his childhood.
