I am getting extra evening work for the holidays. Christmas gifts don’t buy themselves.

These jokes are so true of how my week and month are going. Slow progress is still progress.


I had to cancel my travel plan for New Orleans on Halloween this year. My little RV had a breakdown and needs repair. I lived for 4 years in downtown New Orleans getting the University degree I now use for teaching. I like to visit school friends whenever I can, and nothing beats a New Orleans Halloween concert. I was invited to 8 parties in town. Oh well better late than never. I can make plans again in December, Mardi Gras is always a thing, and there is always next year for Halloween. Now to re-make plans in the local area.

At long last it is not too early to talk about Halloween. Halloween decorations are now in full swing.


Thanks in advance for well wishes, as this is my birthday weekend! This blog is for the manager at FH7 Publishing Andrea Menzies. You may wish me Happy Birthday! My old Facebook got hacked and the new one is NOT showing my birthday, and so other social media is the only way to wish me a Happy Birthday this month. Facebook sucks.

This time of year I miss the road lines. 90 percent of the people in Richmond, VA are abusive human sewage to me, and an ex-boyfriend from my first year in town is abusively stalking me. I have really hated life in Virginia. Time to hit the road for a while soon.
