Hello dear friends and fellow bloggers! A very warm welcome to you all! Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to visit me here! I really appreciate you all very much! My next post will appear on my blog on Sunday at 7 p.m. Montreal time (clock is on right sidebar)
Here are today's picks, which I hope will brighten your day.
Good morning
Good morning
Disabled does not mean less loveable.
Keep your drama in another pond.

A prayer for Remembrance Day & Veterans Day...November 11...for those who served, including my beloved father who died in Montreal on August 13, 1984 at the age of 64. Thank you, Daddy, I love you!
My beloved father, photo taken in 1939 in Dartford, Kent, England. He was 19. My father was in the Queen's own Royal Warwickshire Regiment in England. Yes, he was a Canadian, born here in Montreal and died here as well. He was one of many who were deployed there. Although both my parents and I were born here in Montreal, my father's parents were born in Kent, England.
The purple poppy...remembering all animals in war
For those who gave all, we remember.
To boost your mood, clean your home. Cleanliness is associated with better physical and mental health, while mess and clutter is linked with increased stress and cortisol production.

Stare first. Do not react. Just look at them like they've said something deeply concerning. :)
No, I don't struggle with anxiety. It comes very easily to me. :)
Sweater weather, crunchy leaves, warm drinks, spooky nights...my favorite season.
At my age...I've seen it all, done it all, heard it all. I just can't remember it all. :)
They think a stray returns for food. But the stray comes back because you made the world feel a little safer.
Every season of life has something valuable to teach.
Positive Hub
Every challenge carries the seed of a new beginning.
Now is what you have. Be grateful for today. Hold onto hope for tomorrow. Celebrate the joy of everything that's happening right now.
Thoughtful Table
Becoming less reactive is a huge part of growth and decreasing stress. If you let everything get you worked up, you're damanging your mind, body and spirit.
Sometimes, the best plans are the ones that do nothing. Relax. Unwind. Enjoy.
Lest we forget
They stood where fear and courage met,
So we could dream in safety yet.
Their voices gone, their gift remains...
A world rebuilt from loss and pain...
We live the peace their hearts beget,
With quiet thanks - lest we forget.
Good night. Sweet dreams.
The following photo is the only one I am sharing today, and is my personal photo that I took with my cellphone. I am wearing this poppy for the month of November to honour and show my appreciation for all the veterans who fought for the freedom we are blessed to have today...thanks to these amazing men and women, and the sacrifices they made.
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal. Enjoy! :)
