Welcome to Monday. My goodness, is it just me or is September flashing by at warp speed? It just seems like it was beginning and here we are in the last days of the month. It was a lovely warm autumn weekend in the West while we watched nature’s fury on the East Coast with a major battering Nor’easter. We are keeping our East Coast friends in our thoughts. Let’s start with a clean slate for the week with this meme from our friend, Vince the Sign Guy. Seemed a good way to begin focusing on the Halloween season that’s quickly approaching.
May you enjoy a terrific Monday.
Live, love, bark! 🐾
wishing you a lovely rest of your week!
MOL…Double Pawkisses for a Happy Week ahead to you and your mommy too🐾😽💞
Funny sign! The pictures on the East Coast are not so funny. I think they need to build a pipeline for water to West. They’d make a fortune off their floods by selling the water to AZ and CA, and other needy states.
If only we could somehow equalize the water situation. It’s the one thing that seems the hardest to square away. Glad you enjoyed the sign. Vince is always so clever.
I know. If he could actually follow through with all the ideas he’s had during our marriage, the world would be a better place.
would someone please explain how that can happen, i.e. “September is flashing by at warp speed’?
can’t yet prove it, but there is a secret accelerant built into all of our calendars… progressive, of course
looking forward to July (the next time I’ll be warm again lol
Yeah, can’t do anything about the speedy calendar, guess we just have to take it a day at a time.
Sorry you’re not feeling the temperate weather. Autumn is my favorite season because it’s generally mild. Here’s hoping it’s a great weekend for you.
And here we are in October, which is when I’m writing this comment. I’m shocked how fast it all went.
Either the year has flown by or I’m getting older! Come to think about it, it’s probably a little of both.
Same. The good news is time flies so fast it’ll be spring in a few weeks.
That’s the spirit!
MOL/BOL/LOL!! The Monday funny ISS so funny…even on Fursday Wilson an Miss Monika!!!
Thanx fore allwayss finding cute an quirky comickss an stuff.
~~~head rubss~~~BellaDharma~~~ an ***giggellss*** BellaSita Mum
We glad you enjoyed it. It’s a good thing smiles don’t have an expiration date!
150% true Miss Monika an Wilson!!! 🙂
I’m not sure I get Halloween and unfortunately it’s becoming more popular in NZ. I do know that most elderly find it unsettling especially when kids demand more lollies.
It is a curious holiday that doesn’t make sense. I always thought how strange to take a pagan holiday and promote it in a Euro-christian country. As kids we were cautioned to be suspicious of strangers but during Halloween, we encourage our children to go up to stranger’s homes and ask for candy. I can see how bizarre this must seem. Personally, I think it’s a marketing ploy to benefit candy makers and companies who make decorations. Thank you for swinging by-we 💙 visitors and hope you’ll come back.
Yes, the cynical me believes these holidays are a ploy to create guilt within adulthood and have us visiting retail stores to buy up lollies, etc galore to keep the small people happy 😉
I think you’re on to something. I find my own cynical self getting cheesed about the cionstant buy-buy-buy message from corporations.
Java Bean: “Ayyy, ‘Broom Broom’ must be like the witch version of those old Mazda commercials!”
That’s exactly what I thought too. LOL
A witchy welcome to Halloween, Monika. Love it. Hope you get that promised rain!
Thanks, Bruce. We’re seeing more Halloween decor than we are seeing changing leaves! We hope today’s forecast begins the next few days with some welcomed moisture. Our paws are crossed. Hope you have a great rest of the week that includes some drying out.
Yes indeed! I recently read a book which says that on an average all of us live for 4000 weeks. That woke me up 😄 Yes, have to make the most of this precious resource called time.
Truly miss those Halloween times with my kids!
Thank you Monika; you have a great week too!
When did time ever tick by at a pace we wanted…sigh! Loved the Halloween board – it’s brooooom….brooooommmm…TlME
Having recently celebrated another birthday, it occurs to me that time increases in speed the older we get. I keep trying to make whatever time is left to be the most productive I can. Still…holy cow, what a sobering notion!
Glad you enjoyed our weekly smile. It struck me as the perfect one given how much Halloween decor has begun showing up, in stores and around our neighborhood. Hope you have a wonderful week, Nimi.
Thanks. We hope you have a very Weim-erific week!
the time runs like crazy… a happy fall week at the ranch
Heeheehee! I hope you have a blessed week.
Glad you enjoyed today’s smile. Have a wonderful week!
September is almost in the rearview and I’m with you. How??????
Things are just rainy here, have been for days and will continue. But man, they got battered up and down the coast.
The witching hour is almost at hand. I’ve got to start watching some horror movies . . .
Have a great week mama
You too, Marc! It’s hard to fathom the year is 3/4 of the way fineto. Good grief. Stay as dry as you can. Sending positive thoughts your way. Happy Monday
I know!
And thank you muchly.
Good one for the upcoming month of Halloween!
Thanks, I thought it was pretty timely. Have a great week.
Good one. 🙂 This whole year has flown by. XO
I’ve been thinking the same thing. Hope it’s a good week for you. Happy Monday.
Thanks for the laugh. It’s still raining here. We’ve had a lot of rain, but the wind hasn’t been as bad here in north CT like it was on the shore. It’s supposed to stop raining tonight.
Glad you enjoyed today’s chuckle. Rain is in our forecast for the next few days so naturally we’ve got our paws crossed. We hope the remnants of your nor’easter break up soon so people can get back to a more normal life. Happy Monday, Dan.
That was good Wilson, I wondered what that was that I heard!
Glad you enjoyed it, Terry. Happy Monday!
Wishing you a terrific week, Monika.
Right back atcha, John!
Yes, that nor’easter was way too ferocious.
That sure is a funny sign; such a clever pun!
Glad you enjoyed it. I think nature is getting even with us for not taking proper care of the planet. Here’s hoping you have a terrific week!
September really did go by at warp speed this year!
Glad to know I wasn’t the only person who thought that. Here’s hoping the rest of this month goes well for you. Happy Monday!
It’s not just you. I can’t believe October begins this week! That’s a cute sign.
Hiya…glad you enjoyed today’s smile. It seems like the older I get, the quicker life seems to go. At least it beats the alternative. Have a wonderful Monday!
Every year around this time I am reminded how big this country is when on one side the weather is idyllic making for a beautiful fall day. On the other side there are major storms and real danger for the folks who live there.
And Vince nails it again. That guy sure knows Witch way is up! 🙃.
Meanwhile, I’ll enjoy the seasonally mild weather out here in the foothills of NorCal and keep our friends on the East Coast in my thoughts.
Hahaha…I see what you did, Mike! Well done. Vince would definitely approve of it.
Nature seems to be very unhappy with our stewardship of the planet and it’s showing up in a myriad bunch of ways across the country. Enjoy your pleasant temps, Sending you loads of well wishes for a terrific week.
Love that sign. You made me laugh out loud.
Prayers for those affected by the storms.
I linked this post to my Awww Mondays blog hop.
Have a fabulus day and week. Love and hugs to mom and lots of scritches to handsome Wilson. ♥
We’re so glad you enjoyed today’s smile. It cracked me up after I noticed a few Halloween decorations popping up around the neighborhood. As always, we are grateful you added us to your Monday post. You’re the best, Sandee. Hugs and tail wiggles from me and Wilson. Happy Monday.
I’ve got the soup maker out of the cupboard in readiness for October… 😀
Oooh, sounds like a good plan for the upcoming cool days and nights. Guess I better locate my slow cooker since I haven’t used it since I loved in back in December. Have a great Monday!.
We have rain moving in today…here’s hoping it continues north to you!
Thanks for the morning giggle!!
Glad you enjoyed today’s giggle. Rain is forecasted for the next few days so we’ve got our paws crossed. Certainly the low pressure cool front from the north is settling in, now if only there’s some moisture accompanying it. Have a pawsome week!
High 90s all next week. Yucking my yum or something like that.
Oh dear…you have our condolences. Our weekend was in the mid-80’s but 60’s and 70’s for the rest of this week. We can only hope there’s a bit of moisture accompanying those wonderfully moderate temps. Happy Monday, Tom & Reiko.
Yes, September does seem to be zipping by. I think that’s because its cooler, and yes! Rain!
We too are definitely enjoying the cooler temps and savoring what little rain our neighborhood has received. We’re hoping this week there’ll be more {paw crossed}. Have a great week!
Brooooom…..broooom….tee hee! Time seems to go by a lot faster these days – Mom says now that she’s SUPER old it’s faster than ever. Anyway, the effects from the nasty Nor’Easter are pretty much over with here. We had some cold windy rainy days but since we aren’t near the water we had no “overabundance” of wet – just helped with the drought situation we’ve had all summer. I’m about to ask Mom to take me outside for a quick visit – I heard her tell Dad it’s “nail trimming” time so I’ll try to make it more than a QUICK visit to avoid the inevitable!!
Huggies, Teddy
Ah, maybe that’s it…aging. It’s a culprit on a number of things. We’re glad you enjoyed today’s smile and glad you weren’t badly impacted by the nor’easter. With all the Halloween decorations starting to show up, we thought today’s smile was perfect. Enjoy this week!
Here in the Northeast we still have rain and more rain ~ we may build an arc ~
Hugs ^_^

Oh dear…sorry about all the rain. Feel free to send it back westward. We’ll happily take it. Happy Monday.
I’m with you–are we really two days from October!
I know, right! Where has this year gone? Have a great Monday.
The New Jersey coastline was hit hard. I’m near Philly and we did ok with a lot of rain (still raining here), some wind but no real damage. Fingers crossed for those affected.
Glad you are safe. Some of the news reports are pretty ugly. Let’ hope it’s a good week all around. Happy Monday.
Broom! Broom! Broom! 🤣love it!
So glad you enjoyed this week’s smile. Vince has a knack for making folks smile and this week was no exception. Enjoy a wonderful Monday!
Somehow (so far) the Montreal area has been spared from the Nor’easter! Well, there is rain today but nothing torrential.
Love the sign and wish you and the house pony a wonderful Monday!
Let’s hope the rain isn’t too bad. We have rain in our forecast for the next few days which I’ll gladly welcome if it in fact materializes. Glad you enjoyed today’s smile. We have started noticing a few of the neighbors getting into the Halloween spirit and thought well, this is timely. Happy Monday, Dale!
Here, it is nothing. The sun is shining as we speak!
I sure hope you do get some rain.
The Hallowe’en stuff is starting here, too.
Happy Monday, my friend!
What a great way to start out the week! Enjoy.
Will do!
