Word(y) Wednesday

 

Is it as incomprehensible to you as it is to me that it’s already October?! Here’s to a glorious month. We’ll be celebrating the birthday of a certain knucklehead in a few days, so make sure to check out the antics celebration.

Live, love, bark! ❤︎

  1. Sand Spring Chesapeakes – Cambria, WI – My husband and I have six "furry" children Gambler, Glory, Guilty, Slammer, Gertie and one cat Bones and two furangel's Norman and Nellie. We breed Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. We are both avid hunters. We also enjoy competing with our dogs in hunt tests and field trials. That is where you can find us during the trial months which are April-September. When were not at a trial we are busy training our dogs. We go snow goose hunting in Canada each year and do all the hunting that Wisconsin offers.

    Oct had been great so far for me. Enjoy the month!

      It does seem like just yesterday you had snow on your deck. Where did this year go?!

  2. Completely incomprehensible! October is almost winter up here. We already had our first snow!

    I can’t wait for that birthday!

      I saw the snow up in Vail. C-r-a-z-y!

  3. I love October! How nice to have a birthday celebration to look forward to as well this month. (Although here in San Diego, we’ve had our worst fires in Octobers – it can be really hot and dry here this month, which is always a bummer!)

  5. This is Luke’s birthday month too, but his isn’t until late in the month. I was supposed to reply to a shower invitation by 10/1 and totally missed it because I couldn’t even believe it was October already! It is a favorite month though, so we welcome it!

    Oh nooooo. My peep’s mom’s birthday is Oct 14. My peep’s is the 28th. And my peep grew up near Sleepy Hollow. To cap it off, my peep’s dad was born on Halloween. HELP-I hope I can make it to November OK.

      Fingers crossed you can survive the ghosting season and make it to the insane season…otherwise known as Christmas.

  10. Indeed time flies. It seems only a short time ago that I bought my pocket calendar for 2017, but yesterday I already bought one for 2018. And quite soon I’ll be using that!
    Looking forward to a certain “knucklehead’s” birthday! 😉

      You guys are behind the times…to really get a jump on retail sales, Christmas decor must be out shortly after Labor Day to be truly effective and obnoxious. Good grief, man…think of the sales you’re missing??!!

      1. We used to do that about 15 years ago, but lost the extra space we had to set the Christmas stuff that early. We did have the trees and lights out in mid September, though everyone knows that’s stuff people do buy early (They really do!)

          Oh yes, how well I know having owned a hardware store years ago. They give us grief for having it out while their shopping cart was full of decorations. Gotta love retail. 😆

    I’m with you on that! It’s amazing how time flies by when you’re so busy that it makes your head spin. But I love October – it’s cool in the morning and evening and just right during the day. And pretty soon it’ll be time to watch “It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!” again. (I love my Peanuts Gang!)

    And just so I don’t forget later on, Happy Birthday Sam!!!

        Whoa! You realize both our fur-kids have ‘bark days’ close to each other with Ducky’s and Elsa’s Gotcha Days within a couple days of each other and now Shadow and Sam’s within days?! What are the odds? 😍
