October Staycation

My October staycation is almost over. The last 10 days were lovely-slow days populated with quiet walks in the park every morning, visits with family and friends, shopping and reading! Willow and Emily both had their annual vet visit. Willow gained a bit more weight for the second month. She is still on her meds.
Miss Emily also gained weight. Emily also enjoys sharing her opinions on the walk to the vet's office. :) I appreciate her moxy!
This is the park I walked in every morning for the last week. It wasnn't always this sunny! The first morning I was so eager to get outside and enjoy the trees and lake that I neglected to check the weather forcast. I was drenched by the time I finally got home. It took hours before I warmed up!
Swan swimming on the lake.
I even managed to make a dent in a book I started to read last year! Originally, I tried to get it through Interlibrary Loan but realized I would never get it done in 3 weeks and bought it.
We hope everyone is doing well. Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends!

  3. Great to hear both lovely kitties are doing well. Especially Willow. And what cute socks. Your weather is turning colder than mine faster, but we
    are no longer warm and sunny. Good you took great walks to relax and enjoy and then home to warmth.
