♥♥♥ Happy October!!! ♥♥♥
Well, the month has arrived! Let the fun holidays of the ending half of the year begin. I wore these on the second day of October, so I didn’t waste a moment to get started on Halloween. Nice touch, no?
And the spider background is a foreshadowing to my Halloween costume…muuahahaha.
Pumpkin cookie from Panera…yumm. 🎃
We had our first rain this week! It started at a whopping 6 a.m., in which I heard the distinct sound of rain pouring down on the roof. I was ridiculously excited; it doesn’t rain here at all during the summer, so this is truly a reason to celebrate. 😉
Rain, at the beginning of the week.
End of the week.
The rain didn’t last long, unfortunately. I managed to see a huge lightning storm that was happening to the north while I was driving on the freeway at night, though. 🌩
Since the cooler weather is on the way, I’ve brought out some jackets. Here’s a red one I wore this week!
I’m really glad I have this little red jacket. It’s quite warm, and I also have a new khaki jacket that’s similar in style that’ll be great to wear when it rains. I could’ve worn it this past week during the rain, but it hadn’t arrived in the mail yet. Next rain storm and it’s onnnnn!
My current read!!! After being knee-deep in a book about the Black Death for the past few weeks, there’s only so much of the bubonic plague a gal can take. Hence, a light-hearted and happy read was a must after I finished the book. I chose wisely!
I love the show, so it’s easy to love the book.
Here’s a favorite passage I came across:
I hope you all are enjoying the start of this beautiful month and getting into the festive spirit! I’ll be going to the pumpkin patch this weekend, so I’m super excited about that. There will be photos and a blog post, naturally. 😜
‘Til Then! ♥
Love the red jacket! ♥ I live in NC, and it still feels like summer here, haha. We are all anticipating some light jacket weather.

Awesome!!! North Carolina must be lovely. ♥️ Today it’s going to be 80 degrees, but for Central California that’s really cool weather, haha! It’s typically like 105 degrees average here in the summer!

Cute jacket, especially the belt. And I laughed when I read this about the last book you read: “there’s only so much of the bubonic plague a gal can take.” I hear that! I like to mix up the books I read, too. Your current one sounds good, and I like the passage you picked. All we need is a little (or a lot of!) imagination 🙂
