THE LOOP
Halloween Time!
I got to say, my best costume to date has to be Jigsaw from the movie Saw. It was pretty spot on. The best part is that I accidentally had everything on hand including the suit, the red bow tie, the white gloves, and the red tricycle. The only thing I had to get was the mask. I was able to do a lot with very little and those are my favorite type of costumes. I had a lot of fun dressing up as Jigsaw. Riding the tricycle around the building at work and making some people laugh was definitely a plus!
I'm just really glad the tricycle didn't give up on me.
Apple Hill
I’m not really a fan of Halloween (except for the candy part)... I’m not big on anything spooky, and I always just want to skip it and head straight for Thanksgiving 🤷♀️. But I do LOVE me some fall 🍁
Growing up in this area has been great because fall is SO beautiful here! The trees change colors, the air is crisp, and I love windy stormy nights. It isn't officially fall though until you head up Apple Hill 🍎 If you've never been before, Apple Hill is essentially just an explosion of fall. There’s farm upon farm full of apple orchards, apple donuts, pies, apple cider, gourds…. the list goes on and on. Traffic is crazy on weekends, but if you can get up there early before the crowds, you can stuff your face with apple donuts to your heart's content. Every year when I was younger, my mom would buy a giant box of apples so we could make homemade applesauce/apple crisp throughout the season. So good with vanilla ice cream on top 🙌
All in all, Apple Hill = Fall. I need to take my own advice and get up there! 🍎🍩
Mt cats
The one that walked in is our only male cat. I’m not sure of his age but he’s what you would call a mouser. His name is Genghis Khan. When we gave him that name, we had no idea how fitting it would be because his favorite activity is hunting for pray. Like I said. He’s what’s called a mouser. But don’t let his little murdering ways get you to thinking he’s a mean cat. He’s a huge love bug and he sleeps 95% of the time.
Next we have our Boobahs. I found her about three years ago abandoned near my old workplace. She was about three to four weeks old at the time. In the time that she’s been living in our house she’s developed a weird personality. She’s not big on affection but loves having her chin rubbed, but she will straight up push your hand down/away if she does not want to be touched. She’s big on personal space…Well her own personal space. Shell lay right on your face if she feels so inclined.
Finally, our newest baby! Purrsephone. This little baby came to us due to someone tossing her out of their moving car. A friend of mine found her and came to us for help. Since we had already hand raised Boobahs we decided to do it again for this little. She was about five weeks old and a purr machine. She tends to want to be right in my face and she will sleep under my chin whenever she gets the chance. Its been a bit of an adjustment for our other cats but they are starting to come around.
All in all, they are all my favorites. <3
