Bath Tub Chatter
Jean Claude and Koko have a curiosity about my bathtub. When I’m in it Koko playfully kicks my head . When I’m not in it Jean Claude tries to drink from the faucet though the cats have a water fountain by their food dish in the kitchen.
Welcome/Unwelcome
Two weekends ago a small mouse appeared in my kitchen and scurried out of site as I moved in for closer inspection. Needless to say I went to CCL’s house to get Jean Claude and Koko to come and perform exterminating duties at my house. ( Here’s Jean Claude in a T-Maxx bag)
October
Welcome Fall. Fall really is my favorite season. It leads to Thanksgiving and Christmas – family, food and amazing wardrobe choices. I like October best in Washington DC where I live. The flowers are still in bloom and even my rose bushes are making a comeback . The weather is sunny and crispy with beautiful colors of trees emerging. I still run errands in my white yes white flats and wear sandals where it suits the occasion. It is a month of birthdays of my favorite people. Perfect time for festivals and butternut squash soup.
October is also Domestic Violence Awareness Month and Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Donate to these causes if you can.
Do Unto Others
Pope Francis paid a visit to the U.S. this week. He literally made a stop in my neighborhood of Brookland DC in fact I can see the Basillica from my house and yes I hear the bells on the hour.. Truth be told the vibe in my neighborhood aka “Little Rome,” is always pretty positive but it took on an added “feel good” air during his visit. One thing the Pope quoted the Bible Luke 6:31 to a joint session of Congress “Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You.” Interesting in a culture where it’s usually do unto others before they Do unto you. Unfortunately in Congress, as well as other parts of the city the latter creed seems to persist, the real question is why. All the back-stabbing, undermining and belittling – why? Does it really mean success for those who engage in small acts of emotional terrorism? I like to believe the answer is NO. I’m with Pope Francis on this one. Ultimately a higher power decides.
