The future is bright!
The month began with me hanging out in New Westminster with my friend Karyn's dog, Jovey, and eating the food graciously left for me. I was grateful to be included for a Thanksgiving dinner with my wonderful neighbours, Stephanie, Phil, and Sophie. I started to appreciate the beauty of nature and the world again. I still don't really cook, but I think I ate a little better in October, too. Once I truly came to terms with my situation and let go of the past, opening my heart and mind to new possibilities, everything changed and I was rewarded with a miracle! Joy, happiness, connection, and endless possibilities appeared and coloured my life in beautiful ways. The future is bright! Fall can be confusing in this part of the world... One day I was marveling at the warmth of the bright sunshine with cold beers after a glorious morning of pride inducing, well played soccer, then shortly thereafter, it snowed and I was without power overnight! With an improved outlook & sunny skies, I headed back to my favourite hike in Stoney Hill Regional Park to enjoy the spectacular views. Hundreds of sea lions returned to Cowichan Bay in October. I logged MANY hours of video calls getting to know Elahe from a distance. At the end of the month, I travelled back to the mainland... We met for the first time in person and Halloween was fantastic, as everything was new for Elahe - she had never worn a costume or been trick-or-treating. We went with my sister and nieces, watching fireworks, checking out impressive displays, and drinking hot chocolate by a fire, before going to see my dad. My little buddy Sophie's Halloween was all about Skye and Paw Patrol. I ended October back staying at Karyn's place. Both the NHL and the NBA returned to regular season action and the Lions are set to host a home playoff game. By my usual standards, I watched very little programming in October. Since I spent so much time chatting, I only read two novels in October. October left me eager to experience all the promise of November...
