Halloween

Finally it's come and gone. It was fun but now I'm ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas....and of course my birthday! I did enjoy gettin goofy for Halloween. I wore a crazy gothic wig with orange glow in the dark eyelashes. I was "Goth Girl" moody and quite the rebel. A friend of mine was Pippy Longstocking with airborn braids and all.... I'm sure my boss is glad the day is over.

My boys had a great time Trick r' Treating. We just drove around and only got out for the really good looking houses. My goblin and Ninja got so much candy I thought their candy bags would break! The PMI bags I got from work were pretty tough!

My husband is having a poker party tonight and my house is full of guys. I'm married so that doesn't excite me anymore LOL At least he bought this laptop so I can sit in my room and surf. I just can't get into poker and I have tried. The only thing good about these poker parties is the food.... that and I can usually talk my husband into picking up some Baileys for me with the other booze. I love Baileys in fresh ground coffee Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm but of course I love it more when he pays for it!

Well tomorrow I'll be having some people over. I'm having a Partylite party. Candles. Like I really need more. Mainly I wanted to socialize... The person doing the party is pretty fun and not too psycho with the party. We will be able to just mill around and talk. Hopefully the house wont still smell like farts and beer.

Well, I better sort though some crap. Everything we didn't know what to do with ended up in my room. Or, I could just keep playing pinball. Yikes, I think I'm addicted!!

It's really nasty out. Driving today was awful. It's snowed pretty much all day except for when it rained. The roads were like skating rinks. I'm starting to catch a cold so I wasn't too excited about venturing out. We did have a nice time though and a great lunch at Boston's.

My husband bought a laptop and he's pretty thrilled with that. He has wanted one so badly. I'm so glad he finally got one he likes. My mission for the day was to find 2 large planters that I like for my large plants in the living room. It was difficult to find something I liked in the size I needed and then even harder to find two that matched. The two I found look like old urns in a nice neutral shade of fake stone. They cost me $70 for the two. Yikes! I ended up spending $80 counting the extra soil I needed. It's worth it though, the plants look great in them and really needed the room to expand.

Isn't that so true? No wonder my mom has never been happy with me.

Monday monday.....

Today was busy at work! I was so glad to get out of there and go work out. I lost 2.25 lbs last week! I'm so glad. It really is hard to watch everything that goes in your mouth! Although, just knowing I'll have to grab a pencil and figure out what something's going to cost me is a deterring factor.

So I finally cut down one of my gardens last night. Now I just have to clear the front garden. That is going to be really difficult since the flowers still look so petty. I just love my garden and can't stand to cut down my flowers! I'll have to do it sooner or later though.... the later the better.
