Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

What are y'all doing this weekend?

Going to TJs for more pumpkin stuff! Also continuing to monitor the recuperating patient. He's doing great, but will be off work for one more week.

So glad to hear Tim is doing well!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I did have no plans, but now I'm going apple picking with my mother and cousin, which will be fun. I have done most of my (minimal) chores, so I'm in good shape.

Our wings are not tired.

Good to hear Tim's recovery is going well.

I had another bonfire this morning with construction debris. Will maybe have one more before I leave. DH is making me crazy with not making a plan for my return. If he isn't coming up (which is fine) then I want to either mail some of my stuff south, or get one of those top of car bags to put stuff up there. Between the dog and cat, and their food and stuff, and my computer stuff, my car gets filled quickly.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

JZ and Matilda are off to RenFaire for the day where Jacqueline will continue to scowl at people for wearing clashing colors and Matilda will be at the Washing Women's Well.

Which means, I have the house to myself for the day which is a rarity that I will enjoy.

Halloween Viewing: A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (probably my all-time favorite vampire movie, though Let The Right One In is up there); a bunch of Gravity Falls shorts that originally ran on YouTube but are up at Disney+ now; Great Pumpkin (with whole family); The Keep (infamously difficult to see 80s horror movie about Nazis and a hell gate. Currently up at Criterion Channel with their 80s Horror collection); Bell Book & Candle (again a rewatch. I've seen it multiples. Have the soundtrack on vinyl. There used to be a Zodiac Club in SF that recreated the mural from the movie); various classic Halloween themed Disney shorts.

Yet to watch: The Uninvited (40s ghost story) or Over The Garden Wall.

What are y'all doing this weekend?

Wandering around the local Fall Festival for lunch, and hopefully getting to tour this house with my realtor at some point: [link]

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

What are y'all doing this weekend?

Back to normal Sat things: farmer's market, breakfast out, donut pick-up, groceries. Now gonna knit for an hour, then walk the dogs, then clean out garage.

I'd like to do some house cleaning and sewing this weekend. We shall see.

Supposed to go glasses shopping with some friends, then go to a corn maze!

Thrive to spite them

I worked today. It was not a good day to find things. My eye has bothered me the last 2 days. I think I just need new glasses but that had to wait until Dec ...I think I need different prisms or at least in my right eye it doesn't bother me as much when my glasses are off I'm going to go home and rest my eyes for awhile ( aka catnap) and then work on some art. There is a tutorial I want to follow along for making small mixed media cards. And then tonight I'll watch FSU most likely lose to Clemson

Tomorrow M and I may go to this thing in downtown Greenville. Depends on how we both feel. I need to do some laundry and more art.

Some very cool detail work in there, Matt.
