The month of October is big in our family, too many birthday celebrations. By the end of the month, there goes my savings. Mother and Father must have been so busy just after Christmas and New Year’s. Did I count the gestational months correctly? Nine months of incubation, right?
The first three consecutive days of October 1-2-3 followed by October 10, 17, 28, 30 are the days of birth. I know I’ve missed some dates.
To top this, Canada celebrates Thanksgiving Day the second Monday of October the same as USofA. Thank goodness, we abolished adult birthday celebrations and gift giving except for children.
We celebrate Thanksgiving Day instead to be thankful for the gift of family. There is just too much love going around, can’t get enough of it, not to mention food.
This year there will be an extra celebration because my niece will be graduating from University.
Celebration might be postponed at the later part of month due to absences of a few people going on vacations.
Married siblings are doing the Love boat style, cruising, and home away from home. We just waved goodbye to them recently. The three stooges, nephews of the same age who grew up closely, will be visiting the Philippines to meet older cousin. And I will be away to do the annual pilgrimage walking the earth for 15 days.
Time for another foot spa.
There will be plenty of stories to go around when we meet on Thanksgiving Day whatever date will that be.
Busy month, but lots of fun. Love this post. By the way, since 1863 the US celebrates Thanksgiving the 4th Thursday of November.
JT, You found it, thank you. I knew I made a mistake on the US thanksgiving day but I can’t remember which post because I prepared and programmed all the post for the next 19 days while on travels. I missed the celebrations. Take care.
Good luck with all the b days Miss P 😉
Thank you, Ms. g. I do need the luck to catch up with the group. They are fast walkers.
Duh, what am I talking about?
How blessed to have a large and loving family!
I count my blessings for being with this family.
Many October celebrations? that’s new to me 🙂 ah… cozy spa!
By the end of the month, I am broke, Andy.
Same here, way too many expenses X(

My 26th wedding anniversary is on October 11 and my daughter will be 16 on October 12. I love October! Sandy
That’s a lot of walking; foot spa’s a good idea!
My knee is bugging me right now, darn.
Enjoy this celebratory month :)!
Just too much eating….
