Strap in people time is going to FLY!!!! To kick the celebration off today November 1st it is ALL SAINTS DAY. Today is designed to show honor and reverence to saints both canonized and unknown. Take a silent moment today and reflect on those that have gone before you. Give thanks for their lives and contributions that made an impact on your life. Sending the vibes to so many Saints that helped me to get to where I am today and when my work is done here on earth, I’ll join them in the celebration of the ultimate  goal. In the meantime, I will also celebrate National Author’s Day with grabbing a good book and immersing myself in an adventure beyond the bounds of my imagination! Do you have a favorite Author? Mine still remains Judy Bloom as I was growing up. Kristen Hannah, Lee Child, Karin Slaughter and CJ Box- I just absolutely love the Joe Pickett Series waiting patiently for February for the new book to be released! This next celebration tickles my funny bone for some reason because it is National Cook for your Pets Day. Who only cooks for their pet one day out the year?
