A Tennessee Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is here again, and I'm excited to be hosting our family meal right here in the south! See, my family is very fortunate because we never stopped having Thanksgiving together, like we did as kids. Each year, we hop to a different city with the whole mishpacha! Last year, we had almost everyone as we rented a house on a beach in Charleston. I am sorry that one nephew and his family won't be joining us, nor will another nephew's girlfriend. But, we are excited to have the future inlaws of my son and daughter coming to Tennessee. All together, we plan to visit with a total of 29 guests  . . . so THAT is what I am thankful for.




I've been busy cookin' up some good vittles all week! We've got our fancy eatin' table, for twelve, and we even got one new pot passer for the occasion. Plus, we will be using the dining room table and the kitchen table. My husband ran over a litter of fresh possum, so we don't even have to pick up dead ones from the road to cook for our possum stew; that's illegal in the state of Tennessee, anyway. Gee. I hope that possum isn't part of Jeff Session's family.



Since this is part of Music Monday Moves Me, I guess I have to post at least one song about Thanksgiving, so here goes!

#WW One Hit Wonders

Anyone see That Thing You Do? It was a movie about a group that became a one hit wonder. Here is their song.




This next one comes direct from my future son in law and great niece. It may not be a hit yet, but stay tuned! I hope you can find a way to listen.

#WW NANO

November is NANO month, which means writers from all over the world attempt to pump out a first draft of a 50,000 word novel in just one month. I've always wanted to do this, but as a full time teacher, I never had the time. As a part time teacher, tour guide, and business owner, I still don't have the time, but I'm making this happen because it is more doable than last year. Having written almost 10,000 words so far, I'm not going to tell you what my young adult novel is about, but I'll leave you some clues in song.








Do I have your curiosity?

The Glasses Shop



I hit another blogger jackpot when The Glasses Shop  contacted me about sampling their product. It was meant to be because they emailed me the day before my yearly vision appointment. Although I usually wear contacts, I always love a new pair of prescription glasses, and nothing is better than prescription glasses online! I just headed to the shop and browsed their large selection of glasses frames. Finding an ordering the frames was easy! Picking out just one pair from their huge selection, not so much. But what made things easier is that I could digitally try on multiple pairs with the click of a button right from my kitchen table. I had no long wait in line, just click, click, and my new glasses were on their way.



I pasted these digital lenses onto my morning face, 
while wearing pjs, and placed my order.

                           


It didn't take long for the box with
my prescription glasses to show up in my mailbox. Oh, boy! Even the box they came in was cute. This is a sturdy little box with a velvety inside and a magnetic seal on the out. It also came with a towel to keep my glasses shiny new. I love the browns and subtle greens of the frames. Even my husband complimented them. But what's even better, I can see. These are great long distance vision glasses. The other end of the room is clearer than it's been in years! I guess one gets used to seeing a certain way and doesn't realize how much better the world can look.

Here I am wearing my NEW prescription glasses from https://www.glassesshop.com.






Do you like them? I do!

Best of all, YOU can get your pair of prescription glasses online. And what's more, I have a special coupon code for you: GSHOT50. This means that you can have 50% OFF of your eyeglasses and sunglasses frames with free lenses (sale items excluded). Have you ever wanted prescription sunglasses? Here you go!

#WW Spooky Halloween

Ghostly faces often appear in the mirrors at
the haunted Woodruff Fountaine house.
Do you see her or her friends?





Boo!

Halloween Tunes

This song stole a piece from the Munsters, so it counts!


See. Did you know the Munsters Theme Song had words?


Poor Marilyn is so plain compared to the rest of her family.

Here's another fun one for Halloween!



And I'll end with something new. Does anyone watch Stranger Things?

Halloween Freebie

Do you see a ghost in the mirror? I do! Actually, with a good stare, I see several of them, and I haven't been drinking this morning, either. When I toured the very haunted Woodruff Fountaine house in Memphis, I took a photo of the room and caught a corner of the mirror. Many people have reported seeing faces in the mirrors when they look at their photos, so I chose to blow up and play with the editing button on the iphone and voila

I don't know what you'll see, but I see several images. I see . . .

1.)  a Victorian woman in the center of the photo.
2.)  an older gentleman looking over her left side.
3.) a white profile to her right that has a fairly clear ear while the top of the head is wispy.
4.) a possible figure in the lower corner across from the white image.

I also see a bumpy pumpkin in the first writing prompt!

I'm currently at a school where the kids do not celebrate Halloween, so I need to pass this revised freebie onto y'all. I am offering two writing prompts with a Halloween theme for FREE!




Here I am with another one of my pajama posts, too.


Enjoy!

Vehicles - Here We Go

Today's Music Monday Moves Me Theme is "Vehicles", so I had to find unusual modes of transportation in hopes that no one else will post my same songs. 

Let's start with a rocket ship being steered by David Bowie, "Space Oddity."


If one does post my same songs, at least I know they won't post my products, 
related to transportation, of course.



Just think. You can click on my link to buy a close read activity about the largest 
Maritime disaster in history or float along carelessly in a yellow submarine. 

Anyone want to travel with Ringo Starr?


Or, you can zoom on a broom with my Harry Potter Puzzle Pack.



I guess it would be more normal to take your mule for a stroll, one last time.
Poor Sal has been replaced by a steam engine.

Facing History and Ourselves

People make choices. 
Choices make history.


Fear
Weary
Sick at heart
     What have you done?

Unmindful
Sneer at everything
Finger pointing
     What have you done?

Blame everyone but thenselves
Bellicose
Happened in city.
     What have you done?

I am weary of reasons.
I have fear and trepidation
To bring hope and inspiration,
     What have you done?

Fall Music and Products

Here's my first "fall" Music post. Enjoy Tyler Joseph and Josh
as they fall down. Twenty-One Pilots must have the clumsiest lead singer of all.




And the lantern may have fallen in the shed to start 
The Great Chicago Fire, so:





Oh, wait. Xmas Dolly said, "Autumn" theme not "fall." Let's try this, again. 

Welcome The Mamas and the Papas with "California Dreamin'."








Oh, no! You said, "Autumn." I think I went too far because the leaves have turned brown as opposed to pretty colors, but it felt fall-like to me, and it is the first and only song I thought of with the theme being "Autumn." Please give me one more chance. I'll get this theme right! 


Here's Van Morrison with Moondance.




Now, that one fits the theme, as does this:






Finally, my title does read "Fall Music" and no one falls better than
Buster Keaton
