Pumpkin days..........


I bought a couple of pumpkins yesterday and thought I would put them on our new deck in front. I placed them on the railing one on either side of the staircase. I also want to get one of those stuffed scarecrows that are always available this time of year. Last night I was fixing dinner and I let Chloe out to do her business. While she was out sniffing around I ran back to check my dinner on the stove. Suddenly, I heard her barking at something. I ran back to the door and there she was standing on the deck barking at one of the pumpkins. Silly girl!! I guess she noticed something different and decide to vocalize her displeasure with the intruder. I also went to the YMCA yesterday for the first time since I got sick. I worked out on the treadmill for a half and hour and then met my neighbor and we went to an aerobics class. It was a moderate aerobics class so I didn't feel like I was gasping for breath throughout it. It was mostly stretching and slow movements at first. Feels great to be back in the swing again.

I'm glad you are doing so well. I've never 'worked out' as they say. About the only exercise I get is walking and that's not all that much either. It is a fun time of year to decorate and add some color to the dreary days.

Silly pets - I can just see her taunting that pumpkin. What'll she do when you DO get the scarecrow??

We need to get our pumpkins in a few days because we have a Halloween party on Saturday and we carve pumpkins at the end. My dog gets like that when I put the scary dancing Halloween man out. He just keeps barking at it. We love our crazy dog. Have a wonderful evening.

I have a maltese and she does the same thing. If I put something new inside or outside of the house she howls at it. It is so funny!
