This is a book is about women, Taylor Swift, challenges, everything I can think of. I wrote from the heart. I love my Heart Trophy I got for this! Enjoy!
So your leaves are still enjoying the autumn colors. Our leaves have taken a beaten with the heavy winds. The lights flickered a couple times last night. Thankfully the power got back up and kept the heat going. Although, the internet went down for awhile while it rebooted back from the the short interruption in power.
We had quite a bunch of trick or treaters last night. It was cold rainy and very windy. But the kids were happy to be out and about the neighborhood. I love watching those creative costumes on Halloween. The little ones are adorable.
The moon was beautiful. There's something about a November moon with a frosty scent lingering in the air. I guess there will be snow in the not too distant future.
Thankfully the kids will be here passing out candy with me. It gets quite busy in our town.
I have lots of candy. Hersheys Chocolate bars, REESE'S , and non chocolate/non peanut butter ones for those who are allergic. The town set a 5-7 p.m. trick or treat time. But, there's always delays and strays. By 8:00 we shut the lights. Those are usually the repeat visitors and much older "kids."
Lots of leaves are down from the rains here. The wind is up and it is ready to be spooky. Lights out here, though. I Hope Rascal doesn't get too anxious.
Prompt:What historical event had a big impact on your life?
The Vietnam War. My father went to Vietnam three times and we were never close after that. He changed. The last 20 years we were in a better place and I am glad. I lost him on Veterans Day 2 years ago. Dad would come home and he got transferred and we moved to another state. I would make new friends and he went back to Vietnam 2 years later. I hated going to another school but Indiana is where Mom and I stayed with her parents when Dad went to Vietnam. Dad was hard to reach. That war affected me. After Dad died, I listened to Vietnam Protest songs. I hated what Vietnam did to us. Dad went to Church. I blame Vietnam for us not being close but we found peace with each other and I loved him. Vietnam War affected my life and my father's. We do go on. I listen to Vietnam Protest songs and wear peace sign necklaces sometimes. I guess this is my way of having closure with my father and how Vietnam changed our lives. I loved tge 60s and 70s anyway. I was a hippie at one time. I treasure good memories and remember Dad when I was a little girl before Vietnam. I treasure those times.
