On this Day we Remember

******

As with all days this one comes around and it is now twenty four years ago, which seems unbelievable.  I think it will be a day eteched in everyone’s memories who witnessed this terrible thing on our TV’s.  Our hearts go out to all those who lost loved ones.

Yesterday was busy as I am trying to sort out all the paperwork for my current vehicle and for the new vehicle well new to me.  Years ago it was suggested that eventually paperwork would be a thing of the past and we would do everything on line but here we are in 2025 and I suspect we are still using the same amount of paper!  I once worked in an office where they actively encouraged no paper use at all and to be perfectly honest they seemed to use more paper than anywhere else I had worked!

I have been busy with work this morning and so am going to do my home jobs  done tomorrow.  The weekend is busy for DH with swimming and playing cars with the Boys (!) and I am hopefully getting on with quilting.  

Tomorrow is Book Club Friday and I have quite a few to show you and some thoughts on one particular Author, who is very popular at the moment and is everyhwere but I, well I will tell you tomorrow.  I may lose people over it but still! 🙂

It is getting cooler here, especially at night, although it is still warm in the day.  Autumn is starting to make itself known.  The other day when the windows were open a neighbour had a bonfire and the smell was wonderful and really reminded me that Autumn is here.  Because it has been very dry this Spring and Summer the leaves on the trees are already falling and the trees are turning already.  Although I do love all the seasons as they offer something different I think I love Autumn just that little bit more.

Coco is having withdrawal symptoms because the door is not open all day for her to run in and out!  If we get a nice day the door is still open but we have also been getting quite a bit of rain too which we do need.  She will soon be snoozing in her basket!!!!

Happy Thursday you lovely lot.  Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

    I can’t believe it’s been 24 years either. George and I had just come home from our morning walk with Maggie. Watching the events unfold on TV was just unbelievable and I couldn’t stop watching as I honestly couldn’t believe what I was seeing! It was horrible and I will never forget. The photo of autumn and all of the trees in their red finery is just breathtakingly beautiful♥

    That was a horrible day. I watched it happen on TV while I was getting ready to go to work. It was so hard to teach that day, but my students were totally unaware of it. One of the teachers at my school lost her sister in the tower. Then the event of 9/10 was horrific to see…the country it still reeling from that. I’ll watch it on my computer tomorrow. They are using a stadium that will fit 78,600 people and they expect it to fill. Services start at 11 and they will be opening the doors at 8.

    I think it is going to be a difficult winter…certainly getting cold here earlier than usual…I’m wearing fleece leggings, long-sleeved shirt and wool socks!! With a weak la nina and a strong polar vortex that is expected to wobble, we’ll get a colder than usual winter in the north, warmer than usual in the south and I’m right where the two masses of air will meet, so it’s going to very interesting to say the least. Keep warm!!!
