Ahh, October already. Halloween is my favorite holiday, but I absolutely hate the fall season. I often joke that if Halloween was held in the spring, that it truly would be the best holiday ever...for me anyway! :blackcat::bat::mpumpkin:

Happy October!

Virus Appreciation Day cracked me up!

I heard on the radio this morning that October is "Popcorn Month". I don't personally care for the stuff -- but for those of you who do -- you have something a little extra to celebrate!

Thanks Jeanne!! :mickey:
