The world is on edge today for so many reasons.
You can feel uncertainty everywhere you go.

Sunday I read two clients who live overseas - one in Germany - the other in India.

After the second reading ... I turned on the NY Jets game only to see them lose in the final seconds. They just can't seem to catch a break ... or a touchdown for that matter.

Needing a break I walked to the park to enjoy what's left of this beautiful Autumn season - though we all know it's been challenged by no rain since the end of September. The trees really didn't seem to mind as they prepare for winter. This week will turn it all around with rain predicted. Before you know it people will be complaining about rain, snow, and other unpleasant weather conditions.

Out in the park I met a neighbor who took my pic with the six red trees we all love.

Goodbye red trees ... See you during the 2025 football season.

Back upstairs another favorite team - the Pittsburgh Steelers - won in final seconds. Yay!

I blogged this while watching the Chiefs v. Bills - always rooting for NY teams - this one the Buffalo Bills featuring one of my favorite quarterbacks, Josh Allen, who just scored a winning touchdown - beating the undefeated KC Chiefs! Yay! The fans are going wild.

Last week was all about UFOs, and all things connected - science, politics, disclosure, and the path for Trump and Musk.

And now we take another slow deep breath and wait ... with Thanksgiving days away.
