Morning all. Happy Halloween.
I'm wearing an orange long sleeve v-neck and black slacks. No costume, even though there's an "appropriate Halloween costume contest" today as part of our fundraiser activities. No slutty or tasteless costumes allowed, LOL.
Annie- So, no space in between the bones. Just the thought of the bones rubbing on each other is horrible. I hope the cortisone shot has kicked in and brought some relief. Huh, moved the Trick-or-treating. That's nice - poor kids want to wear their costumes and get some treats, so good for them it's not cancelled altogether. I'm also on the 5th floor of our building, but not close to any windows.
Ceejay - Nice you get to enjoy the fall color (before the rain does away with all the leaves). Too bad you couldn't get your flu shot - you were at home, you could have gone if if only they'd phoned you. No advance notice??
Michelle - Yes, the parties are part of our office fundraising activities. Naturally beer makes the wallets open more easily - there are a lot of raffles offered. Some of the rooms were very creative, and one even had live music (one of the duo was the husband of an employee).
Hellos to Happy, Shad & Susie!!

I left my bike at the train station last night. It was rainy and dark when I got off the train, so I walked home.
I was very tempted to stay home and chill out after getting home, but I got into my workout gear and went to the zumba class. Usually I'm happy I exercised and feel good afterwards, but this time I wasn't and didn't. The instructor was a bit late, strike one. I won't go into why I didn't care for her either because she announced she likely wouldn't be teaching this class on this day/time anymore, so I won't have to worry about avoiding that instructor's class.
Anyway, it was humid in the room because it was mild and rainy outside and the floor had that sticky feeling. Doing these three classes (Sat./Mon/Wed) with a lot of pivot moves has been hard on my feet, primarily my right foot. It has a big bunion on it and that's what hurts. I see a surgery in my future to get rid of that thing. Bleh.
I guess it's a good thing I'm busy Saturday morning and won't go to a class that day. Let my foot rest. And maybe Sunday I'll do a spin or yoga class. Or maybe not.
Dark and rainy again today. I walked to the train. Unless it's not raining tonight, I'll likely be leaving my bike parked at the station again.
I won one of my raffles, but the one I least cared about - for a 6-pack of German beer. (That was in the Oktoberfest party room, where they were selling pretzel necklaces - I love that idea, so easy, just string small pretzels on a piece of twine. I might have to bring that to a party sometime, lol.) I only entered that one for bf's benefit. Oh well, it's something, and all the proceeds are going to a good cause.
That's about it for me. Everyone have a great day!
