Taking a page from kaya we are digging out the Halloween goods and sorting through them. It’s raining here so we aren’t actually doing much but figuring out what we have, what we need and what we will use. Personally I don’t care so long as we decorate. Sure we live at the end of a cul de sac but we can still be festive!

I was supposed to go in and work a couple of hours to help out today, but when I stopped in to check to see what was going on and informed the “key holder” for the day that I could only work 1-330, she promptly got pissed off and told me not to bother. So, I’m home, which suits me just fine. My knees are not taking the change in weather well and I can stitch and clean a few things up so I have it easy on my next 2 days off. I don’t need the drama and attitude today anyway.

So far the weekend is calm and quiet. We did our huge grocery shopping and the pantry is full again. So thats one less stresser to deal with. Now I just need to tidy up a few things and get myself ready for the coming week.

I plan on tackling my bathrooms today (with Lauren’s help) and then it’s time to sit in the recliner and complete the “R” today. I start on the wedding piece today as well (tonight I hope) and will get the things needed for the 2 “H”s I need to complete yet for Christmas. Things are coming along nicely.

The coming few weeks are busy. Volleyball is still going, the weather is changing and we will be prepping the yard and the house for the changes. I want to get the gutters done once more, get the snowthrower cleaned up and ready and then (and yes this sounds funny) dig out all the Christmas stuff so I can find it easily this year and not spend a week digging around for it all.

Mass this morning was uplifting. I was happy to go though the material covered today was abit too close to home for my liking. I felt like somehow it was directed at me and had to really focus and think so as not to let it get to me too much. The kids start CCD tonight (at home for the next 4 weeks) and though Lauren has her 7th grade book, she will do the basics with Logan for now so she can get the fundamentals so she learns the prayers and such.

So off I go…. Domestic Goddess @ Work!
