Songful Style | “Meet Virginia” by Train & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #674
It is my turn to choose a song for our next Songful Style challenge. For October, I have picked an old favorite of mine, “Meet Virginia” by Train. There are a lot of fun sartorial references in this song and I really can relate to Virginia so I am excited to see what kinds of styles are inspired by a woman who “wears high heels when she exercises”! About Songful Style Songful Style is an ageless style challenge series hosted by Suzy of The Grey Brunette, Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge, and Marsha of Marsha in the Middle.

Happy Horrorful Halloween & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #673
Meet Jim, the newest addition to our spooky Halloween home. He is very tall. Six and half feet actually. And we love him! But I think our neighbors might already kind of hate him. Oh well. He is here to stay until November 1. Each year we add something new to our creepy porch decor. You can see how it has evolved through 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. The soldier skeleton is loaned to us by a friend each year and this year we have also added another big spider and a cage to contain the smaller posable skeletons. The cage belonged to George, our beloved and dearly departed bunny.…

What in the World is this Wonderfully Weird Weather?
I have never loved summer the way I have loved it this year. Usually I am good and ready for the autumn temperatures to arrive, but right now I am embracing every last drop of summertime that the planet is willing to offer me. We are expecting a high today of 83˚F (28.3˚C) which is extraordinary for where I live. Last year at this time, Becca and A.J. visited from North Carolina and this is how we were dressed. It was cold, y’all. I can’t remember the exact temperature, but I’ pretty sure it was in the 50’s. I guess fall is just coming a little late this year because…
