I am grateful for the moon.  I've always loved the moon, especially bright nights.  It's a magical time.  Today is the full moon - at 3:16 in the afternoon. Aw well.  Apparently November is the Beaver Moon.  (Learn more here.)

Anyway, I usually get home from work between 9:30pm and 10pm, and then I take Mocha out to potty for the evening.  Usually it's quite dark then, and I'm checking balconies and walking through the dark spots of the complex quickly.  However, the last two nights, the moon has been quite bright (makes sense if the full moon is today, don't you think? :))  And I've been grateful for that.  I feel safer, and I can see where Mocha left her presents.... Plus, like I said, I just enjoy a nice bright night.
