FOR TODAY, October 5th, 2021
Outside my window ...
It is full daylight now, but was pitch black when I got up. The temperature went down quite low during the night. It won't be long now before I will have to start turning the heat on a bit in the mornings. It went down to 2 degrees last night, which is just above frost.
I am thinking ...
As we now move into Phase 5 of the re-opening when it comes to this darned virus, I am a bit confused as to what is acceptable or not. I think I will just keep on being careful no matter what, and following the counsel of my church leaders. I don't think this virus is finished with us yet.
I am looking forward to ...
My very first Canadian Thanksgiving in 22 years!
I am thankful for ...

I am reading ...
The Widow's War, by Mary Mackey
In 1853, Carolyn Vinton is left alone and pregnant after her fiancé, abolitionist doctor William Saylor, disappears. After his stepbrother convinces her that William is dead, Carolyn accepts his offer of marriage, not realizing that she is being drawn into an elaborate ruse by her new husband and his father, a pro-slavery senator–and that William is still alive.
Their passionate reunion takes place in the midst of the violent Civil War, as abolitionists and pro-slavers battle over the Kansas Territory. Now only their willingness to sacrifice their lives for their beliefs–and for each other–can save them.
Have only just started this.

Something to watch ...
In Your Eyes, netflix
Two seemingly unconnected souls from different corners of the United States make a telepathic bond that allows them to see, hear and feel the other's experiences, creating a bond that apparently can't be broken.
Makes me smile ...
The daily antics and love of these two. Heart warming.
Corners of my kingdom ...
The Tasty Twirl, which used to be situated on the main road into the base in Greenwood. This is where my sister, brother and I enjoyed many an ice cream treat in the summer time when we were growing up! It has been long since gone. My ex husband used to have a job emptying the garbage here when he was a lad.
A thought to carry with you ...

*The ordinary arts
we practice every day at home
are of more important to the soul
than their simplicity might suggest.
