Saturday November 1st ~ New Month

In Florida, a promise of a new tomorrow 

is painted across the sky with each sunset...

 November begins beautifully for us.  Mom and 

dad are officially Floridians once again.  My heart is 

happy, and at the same time I feel comfort knowing that

 should they need us, we are right around the corner for 

them. No more long drives for either of us to NC.

To celebrate them we went out yesterday for lunch 

at The Boat House. Casual dining and seeing the 

water and the boats go by is always a plus.

Dad and mom treated us to dinner and to good 

company.  We all enjoyed it and afterwards Arvid

 and I came home and went straight to downtown. 

 After all it was Halloween night and all the 

“crazies” come out. I wanted to go a little later 

in the evening but Arvid said it was too cold so

 we went in the early part of the evening.

 I saw a few costumes. Had something 

good to drink so after all it was okay, but still 

the nighttime is the best time to be out on

 Halloween.  There is always next year.

It was a very good day. Arvid and I will be

 helping my parents organize their pictures 

 on the wall.  Next week is when he begins to

 hang them. Arvid says he likes doing this

 Little at a time.  I am helping mom with boxes 

and bags. There is way too many.  At some point my

 dad told Arvid to just take a few boxes with him home. 

 Don’t matter what was in them 😱 of course we didn’t. 

 Just goes to show they have way way too many. 

Welcome to the Free State of Florida 

mom and dad.  Life is better in flip flops.

Wishing everyone a November to remember.

 As we express our gratitude, we must never

 forget that the highest appreciation is not

 to utter words but to live by them.

November is a month of 

transformation and preparation...
