Veteran's Day is only a few days away. Search out your local parade and make plans to go. Pack a lunch (or stop by your favorite drive-thru) and have a small flag for each person in your party. Alternately, raise a flag at your house or write a veteran a thank-you card. Well done, human!
Admit it. The nights are getting cooler. That means your fuel bill will soon be on the rise. Prepare by setting aside a little extra money now. Then you won't begrudge your toasty toes when you turn up the heat in December!
If your destination is fewer than eight floors up, THERE IS NO ELEVATOR! (We're pretending, here.) If you have nothing to lug up the stairs, you will be healthier for the climb. Good health on the way!! (Note, if you have a medical condition, as always, check with your physician first!)
Whether for your pantry or for the canned food drives that happen every holiday season, stalk the sales now! Look for canned soups, sauces, fruits, veggies, meats, even cheeses! You can often find them for as little as $.50 a can!
Halloween madness starts now. Before you head out, check your flashlights to make sure they are charged (or have fresh batteries!). Go in a group. Insist small children hold hands. Count heads often, and HAVE FUN! Happy Halloween!
