Monday morning .......

Monday morning, the start of a new week, the holiday season is not far away. Miss Brooklyn and Miss Emma, my two Great-Grandchildren stopped by, in costume last night, and shared some goodies. It was just another night till they showed up, as Debbie Boone sings, over and over and over, "You light up my life."  It was a delayed Trick or Treat night because of the weather, and it was starting to get cold, they came back once for heavier jackets. Miss Brooklyn, on the right, is almost four. I frequently thank Him for allowing me the longevity to see Great-grandchildren.

Alan Jones is singing on my music station. He is an old timer. I worked with his Brother at the Primm years ago. He attended the wedding of his nephew, Jack Jones, when he married one of the more beautiful women in the world, Jill St. John. At least I can say I knew her Uncle, by marriage.


News around the world. Alabama is still number one in the rankings. Something about Egypt, the sun is out brightly in Ohio, Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away, and we have to pay our rent today, and there are fewer shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year. Most of the country is living on food stamps, which got cut back in Ohio, The government is supporting most of the country, yet stadiums were filled this weekend to watch football games and basketball games and a variety of other sports.

 "Ok, let;s not eat this week so we can go to the game Sunday."
