A change of decor

-

 Halloween is over, time to move on to the next occasion.

No, not Election Day. Pity my lease prohibits “signs” … though considering how many flags and signs I see for the other side … maybe posting my politics on my lawn isn’t such a good idea.

So let’s move on to the next holiday.







On my first post-Halloween walk and I find ….


Guess I’m not the only one.


But I also spotted something weird, a late addition to my neighbor’s Halloween display


I didn’t see anything else like it in the neighborhood…

But soon it will all be gone.  I’m sure many of my neighbors will start putting up Thanksgiving decor.  And many will skip Thanksgiving and go straight to Christmas.  Three of my neighbors had Christmas lights up yesterday.

Should be interesting.

    I'm surprised Thanksgiving hasn't been totally swallowed up (no pun intended) yet. My local Wegmans is already decorated with a wreath on the outside and started selling Christmas cards more than a week ago. But now I'm in the mood for turkey and my homemade cranberry sauce.

    They've already started practicing Christmas carols in the choir classes. Well, even before Halloween. But, they are teens and they have a packed performance season, so that stands to reason. (I did a choir class last week.)

    Wow! I'm surprised to see that eye! A friend sent me a video of one seen in WA state, and I'd never seen one before. Was your eye moving? No signs? Hmm... what about banners? Flags? They could have election info too. There's always bumper stickers. It might be best to lay low this year. It is in my neighborhood.

Music Monday

Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some  help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel …    The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo.  Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.

Ultimate Blog Party!!!!

thanks to suzanne , I decided to join the party. I got into blogging last year because of Suzanne. I've known her on message boards for awhile, but I've gotten to know her much better since entering the blogosphere. I've also met several others whose blogs I am starting to love, and look forward to meeting even more bloggers now that I've joined the party. So I guess that means I have to introduce myself. I am a single mom from Long Island. My older daughter, Jen, is a college freshman, going to school in New England. Younger daughter, Becca, is a high school junior. I am also an attorney with an insurance company, with offices in Jersey City, NJ, a really "wonderful" commute. I sit on the board of trustees at my synagogue (which means I do a lot of volunteer work there!), and I am active in various fundraisers for the American Cancer Society, currently planning for this year's Relay for Life. I like ot take photos, so you'll see many of them in ...

Saturday 9

  Blame It on the Bossa Nova Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to  answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions! Saturday 9: Blame It on the Bossa Nova (1963) Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it  here . Funny you should mention Eydie.  She’s sort of a relative.  My late mother-in-law always said that she and Eydie were cousins.  Eydie was a Sephardic Jew, as was my mother-in-law, so I have no reason to doubt the connection,  so I guess you can say my kids are related to Eydie,   Eydie and Neil Sedaka were cousins, but I’m not sure if Neil was related to my moth...
