My Astrid can still kick it! She loves sports! Her adult women’s soccer team won first in their league. She’s played with this group several years. I think this is their first time to come out first. She still exercises, plays soccer and runs in races! Third pic is back in the day!

Fog Chased by Sun
My walk was foggy but by the time I got back to my house the sun had chased the fog away. The Fish rain gauge had little over half inch of rain! Laura hung my lunch on my mail box! My reward for walking is a chicken burrito for lunch plus all the trimming. I’m going to try to shine today.

November Half over
Sigrid has decorated her room for Christmas. She asked Laura about her living room tree and Laura said—after Thanksgiving. I’m not really a Christmas person. It’s always a sad time for me. We were poor and I hated going back to school and the teacher having everyone tell about what they ‘got’. Sometimes we received a gift and a headscarf from Grandma Gaddy. It was never a joyful time.

Didn’t Sing
Astrid has a new fall look. I like her pumpkin pillow.
Greta’s team got second in the Siloam Springs Basketball Tournament . She’s number 34.
Eric had friends over to watch a fight. I got a plate too. Didn’t have to sing for my supper. The ribs were tasty.

Nothing Much
My new neighbor is Toby! We’ve been getting acquainted! He likes ear scratching😇
The Beaver moon is beautiful. It’s a super moon. Last one of 4 this year.The yellow finches are here. They’re a favorite of mine. I think they are migrating and will be gone soon, but they come back in the spring wearing bright yellow.

Dolled Up, Dressed Down
When Sister Helen goes anywhere she gets a “face” on. When she’s home alone she looks quite different! I look the same going and coming. Neither very attractive🤭😂

Yellow Cat
Greta’s school pictures came. She looks grown up— only 14. Clayton has none as usual. Greta has her first basketball game today. Hope they win.
This morning I had a visitor—a yellow cat. The cat was lounging under my bird feeder. When I looked out, the cat just lay there unconcerned. After I came home from exercise, cat was gone. I wouldn’t mind a hunter cat if it wasn’t a bird hunter cat.
Astrid and Logan have a new Jack donkey. His name is Toby. Where they got him begged Astrid to take a female with fat deposits. Well, within a week she passed. Logan had to bury her. At least Asti tried to give her a home. Pop had a dog grave yard. He used large rocks as markers. Now, we have a donkey graveyard, too.

Program of Honor
Veterans’ Day celebration happened at Laura’s school today. One of the presenters Laura learned was from Witt Springs and her husband was too. Laura texted— are we related. I checked Glenna but,yes, they are cousins through Laura’s Grandmother Martha Bradley Renfroe! Glenna’s way back grandfather was Joseph F. Bradley. He was Martha’s Uncle.

World War I ended 11/11/1918 my Grandfather came home from France 6 months later. Houston Gaddy is on the right in the photo. The picture was taken in France and there is French writing on the back. I don’t know who his comrades in the photo are.

Measuring Life
I can give a weather report now! Skies are overcast and we received 3/8 in of rain. Loving my new rain gauge. I mentioned on FB that I wished I had a rain gauge. Ask and you shall receive! My old friend Coach Fisher brought me a rain gauge last week! I had one but I let the water stay in it. It froze and cracked! Now I can measure the rain.
I’m trying to make scrubbies like Connie. It’s really hard to see the stitches but I’m not giving up.
I was able to install my gauge all by my lonesome even though I’m not very handy.
