December
December the last month of the year according to the Gregorian calendar. The month that children look forward to all year long and that visit from St. Nicholas. There is also Chanukah that sometimes falls around Christmas for those of the Jewish faith. The month when keeping secrets is okay for a while. It is also the time of year for decorating the inside and outside of homes and businesses to show Christmas spirit, even though it seems that this starts at times in September. There are colored lights and bells and singing of carols too. To me it was a time of snowball fights, ice skating, building snowmen, and falling backwards in the snow and making snow angels. December a month of fun and memories to cherish.

November
Moving on to the month of November and the major holiday of Thanksgiving as well as Veteran's Day. The month of just 30 days and hopefully completing harvests and other chores before the snow flies. Watching the birds fly south for warmer weather and hoping for me to see snow or at least heavy frosts to give me the feeling of being cozy while reading a book and enjoying a hot cup of tea or a soothing drink of something else.

October
The month of October and the day of All Hallow's Eve on its' last day. There are a few Jewish religious days like Yom Kippur and one other one but to me October is one of fall chores from raking leaves and preparing gardens for winter and maybe even mowing grass one or more times before the end of the year. The leaves are changing to vibrant and vivid colors of yellow, gold, red and orange then jumping in them and starting all over again.

Senior Year
We have reached my Senior year in high school. The year it seems that everyone cannot wait for and when it is over they begin to wonder. This was the year we studied American Government and Economics, and I had courses in Money Management, Office Practice, Typing, Recordkeeping/Office Machines, Business English Communications. and even a Piano class. We were all planning for our Senior prom and getting everyone to sign our Senior albums.

keeping to the beat!. AI-Generated.
As the days grow longer and the warmth of the sun becomes a constant companion, the beginning of summer brings with it a unique sense of rejuvenation and anticipation. It’s a time to shed the layers of winter, embrace the outdoors, and immerse oneself in the plethora of activities that this vibrant season offers. From beach outings to backyard barbecues, summer is synonymous with creating lasting memories with friends and family. One modern way to enhance these experiences is through the use of high-quality portable speakers, which can reduce stress and set the perfect backdrop for every summer adventure.

NYC Driving Nightmare. AI-Generated.
In the bustling chaos of New York City, the battle between cars and public transportation rages on. The city, with its ever-expanding network of bike lanes and bus lanes, seems determined to throttle car commuting into submission. These new lanes, dubbed "slave lines" by frustrated drivers, restrict cars to single lanes, making each journey a slow, grinding ordeal.

Junior Year
(Note: Before I start on 'Junior year' there is one thing in my Sophomore year I forgot that year I had also taken Typing I for at the time it was a graduation requirement and I guess I was still thinking as a business studies student. Also, selling Christmas candy for our Senior prom.)

Sophomore year
My sophomore year in high school to me was the year that I decided to try and just be a general studies student and found out it was the most boring year I had. Instead of taking Business math and Business English I had courses in Applied Math and General American Literature. They were interesting courses and covered interesting topics but not really in a lot detail. Well, I did take the first course in French and really like it. It was also the year when students had a course called Oral Communications where we learned how to write and give speeches. My sophomore year was a year of learning more about myself.

Winnie the Pooh
This is the first Winnie the Pooh novel that is entitled 'Winnie the Pooh' created by A.A. Milne. This first book is all about Pooh's adventures in the Hundred Acre Woods living under a sign saying 'Sanders'. Pooh meets a Woozle, a Heffalump, goes to a birthday party and a few other activities as well. After I have read this book several times and still quite enjoyed the read, but since I was a mental health nurse it also showed me a different way of looking at eating disorders, anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, attachment disorders, and even grandiose ideations. Mainly though it is a book showing how imagination is the way to go as a child such as Christopher Robin shows how to grow up to be a good person in many ways.

Freshman
The first year and day in high school when all there know that you are a Freshman. 'Freddie the Freshman the freshest kid in town.' I heard this saying when it was time to write our first real big term paper that was for English and History as well as Typing if you had that course in this grade. This was the first year and my first business course known as 'Business Exploratory' where we learned very basic accounting and shorthand along with some other skills as well. It was also the year when our class had our first big sale selling Easter candy for this was to make money believe it or not for our prom in our Senior Year. I also remember this was the year when my Phys Ed class was actually mixed with the Juniors and Seniors for some reason instead of the other Freshman and Sophomores. I liked that for those big guys helped me fit in a little.
