Hello ladies…..how are you all doing?

Happy Halloween everyone!!!!!

Jane~ Thanks for the nice compliments. I do feel sassier with this color. I guess nobody noticed the difference when we went to my aunt’s pig roast. It is a good thing because I already had the color in my hair from my natural highlights. Congrats on the weight loss! I have to get my booty motivated again!

It was so windy here yesterday! There was metal siding from a building that was coming off! Me and my mom were standing outside my aunt’s house and the wind blew us a couple feet….it was that strong!

Cristi~ Yeah….he is my little pumpkin head! His hair is doing like Tommy’s did when he was a baby. It is starting to go blonde on the sides. I had natural red highlights, and it worked out perfectly because the color that my hair turned out to be, was the color of my highlights.

We are doing a thorough cleaning of our house. My parents stayed with us last night. So Brandon slept in our bed for the third night in a row. We have the house pretty much all put back together. We just need to use a couple candles and he wants to get the carpet deodorizer, which I can’t stand the smell of, to clean the carpet.

Marti~ I love the new color! It is something that has taken some getting used to. The funny part is, is that when my hair is dirty it looks like it did before I dyed it. But when it is clean, as in just out of the shower, it looks like it is an orangish/red.

Hello! I'm poppin in again for a min. I've been on the computer looking for quotes.

Went to Walmart and my goodness.....so many people in there it was crazy. And they weren't necessarily shopping for Halloween stuff either! But I got my cleaning supplies and some more candy. Now I'm done running around and cleaning house. I've been working on some scrapbooking that I haven't done for awhile.

Anyway...just wanted to pop in and say hello. I'm watching a movie while I scrapbook. Halloween shows on all day.....

*waaaa *waaaaaa

Susan sweetie, you ARE wonderful... and he knows this. He knows that you are a beautiful woman, inside and out, a good mother, a good friend, a good employee and a good (and lovely!) person. He has laughed with you, told you some of his innermost thoughts, and is trusting you to be as gentle with his heart as you are trusting him with yours. So please DO trust him to like/love you! Also trust in yourself, but most of all, trust in God to show you the way.


Now, print that out, and re-read it as many times as necessary, my dear!!!

Not sure how much posting I'll get in tonight. I'm pretty tired. What else is new? I'm not sure about this time change. It was DARK, I mean DARK at 5:00. Now it's only 7:30, but it sure feels like bedtime. I must be tired alot though. DBF "stumbled" across something in his medical book (or so he says) and asked me if I had been tested for anemia, and then rattled off the symptoms. Yes dear, I've had a CBC. So sweet for him to be worried. I'm just not used to working full-time. This year is the first time, ever, I have worked this much. I know, poor Jen. Hopefully I'll adjust soon.

I actually ran out of candy tonight! YAY! I bought 2 bags today. I only had 5 kids total last year, so I figured my co-workers were going to get it, but man, this year, the kids...good thing I bought 2, not just 1! Glad I don't have any for me either.

I also did some yard work today. Started cutting back and tearing out stuff for the fall. Now I just have a couple piles of things to take care of tomorrow after work. As long as it doesn't rain....And no, didn't find the smelly corpse anywhere. Even looked with a flashlight. Must be tucked in a corner or under the steps where I can't see it. Have to admit, I was a little relieved I didn't find it.

My yoga class that was supposed to start tomorrow has been cancelled. Darn. Can't say I'm surprised though, lack of interest in the midwest for yoga, who would have thought?!

Jane - I finally got on photobucket. There are only certain times for freebees. Anywho...now I can't figure out how to get my pic from there to here. I need your help. How can you keep track of your stuff switching purses? I only have one for the fall/winter and one for the spring/summer. Right now it's a tan/black leopard print. See, matched both brown and black. My warm weather one in a pastel multi-print weave thing.

Susan - I want to go to Hawaii. Take me, take me, take me. Have a good time, and don't forget to relax and have fun!

Marti - I have never heard of the worm thing. It's funny, her kittens do it too. I had a mouse once. Poor thing was under the dryer with 4 cats waiting for it. It didn't stand a chance. It popped out and tried to make a run for it. But Danielle Marie snatched it up. I let her play with it and just about kill it before I tossed it in the neighbors yard. We had 2 feet of snow at the time! Dbf said I should let one loose in the house once in a while as a treat so they can hunt. I DON'T THINK SO!

Well, guess that just about does me in. I'm beat, fingers keep hitting the wrong keys, and my Runty Joe is attacking the cursor on the screen. What next????

Jen

:) Happy Halloween! We had 32 little goblins tonight and they were all so cute. DH even got into the spirit and jumped up every time the bell rang. He was on night shift for most of his working years so missed out on these type things. I think he got a real kick out of it.

I went to church this morning as it will be my last time to go here before we leave. Next Sun. we have a family dinner out of town, then will leave on that Mon. I came home and did the laundry...every Sun. bedsheets. DH and I took a walk and then I came in and fixed supper. We had baked round steak, mashed potatoes, gravy, yeast rolls and a stir fry veggie mix. The first big meal all week and I did remarkably well. (small piece of meat, spoonfull of potatoes, no gravy, lots of veggies.) I treated myself with a mini candy bar after doing so well.

Here is the kicker: I lost 3 pounds this week. I told you I was walking twice a day and being good. I do know that I will not lose that much next week, but it was cool to start off with a big drop as I just got back on the wagon. I didn't get to walk yesterday as the wind was relentless. DH walked and he said he actually "blew" down the street. Since I am doctoring for an earache I thought it best not to fight the wind. I have started on a steroid pack and sure hope it helps. I cannot fly if my ears don't get better. ugh! Trouble is the side effects of the meds. are HUNGER, SWELLING, retaining water, all of which I do not need. I will just have to be very careful. Also causes sleeplessness which I experienced last night. So, I am really tired tonight.
We do not change our time so now we are on the same as Eastern time.

I think I am really in good shape for leaving next week. Just have to do a few things in the yard first.

We go back to talk to the realtor about the condo complex. We really like the area and the idea of no mowing, snow removal, etc. Just all depends on what he found out about doing a work shop for DH. Can't live without the work shop...DH would be lost and drive me bonkers being under my feet.

Hope you all had a very good evening.

Hello everyone

I wrote a big long post to everyone, and then it wouldn't let me post. So now I will just say hello and I hope that everyone had a great weekend.
