Monday, Monday....

Today is supposed to be 70! In November! In Ohio! The leaves that remain are quickly falling, but I consider fall to be until Thanksgiving, and then it becomes winter (who cares that there are actual dates determining these things?). In honor of my favorite holiday, I give you some of the fall scenes from when Becky and Alan were here in October.

JoAnn's

I had a coupon and a gift card for Joann's so I went today. Took the kids and the husband, which meant I couldn't stay all day. I did find some more of this material, plus the same in blues. Awesome, for $2.50 per yard (plus 20% off!) I got four yards of the blue and a little over a yard of the pink. I can add a pocket to my apron now. :) I used every last bit of fabric to make this apron, and didn't have any left for a pocket. Now I can add a pocket, plus make something else. Might be a bag. Might be another cute apron.

Blogging, blogging

It's been a rather tiring day for me. Sean has been outside most of the day, leaving me with a snotty Josh who is cranky today. He must be cutting a tooth. He's miserable and so am I. And, I'm trying to finish up my Algebra work. Finished the homework, and the pretest. Just need to take the test now, but I can't hear myself think, so that won't be happening any time soon.

Here are some more pictures to tide ya over. ;)

Ah, heck, they all loaded too big except for my boy laughing.

visiting family

We had the great pleasure of hosting family the last few months. Becky and Alan were here most recently, she took some great photos. Here's a teaser:

Nov 5 - day 5

So, I just remembered that I needed to blog today. I immediately feared that I had forgotten to blog yesterday. I thought I had failed by day 5, haha!

Alas, that is not the case. Lots of Algebra homework to do, along with a pretest and test in Algebra this weekend (you have to get 1n 80% to even take the test). Plus, I need to study for A&P since I have an exam next Thursday. So, busy weekend. In between that studying, we need to begin getting ready for hosting Thanksgiving. Hopefully, Sean will also hang my shelf and laminate the new counter in the bay window in the kitchen.

Posts are boring without pictures, huh? Here's Nora's school picture for something to look at. :) She's not one who easily smiles with the camera in front of her. She's giving stink eye to the photographer. :p

November 4th

Okay, so, I think I'm out of things to write about. :P

My camera doesn't work, so I can't just do some cute pics of the kids. :( My cell broke and I am not eligible for an upgrade yet, so I hooked up my fil's old phone. His cell camera is way worse than mine was. So, the pictures are super, super blurry. I always thought my cell pictures weren't that great, but this gives a whole new meaning to blurry.

I have breastfeeding support group (I volunteer at the hospital, helping to weigh the babies and such) tonight. It should be a quick meet as the hospital canceled our support groups going further at the last minute tonight, but who knows how many people we actually got in touch with via email and facebook. We have to find a new location off site now, so hopefully, we can get that figured out ASAP. Tomorrow I have class, and I have a test this weekend in Algebra, so once I get home it'll be time for homework and studying.

Day 3 - check

I voted today - did you?

Hoping that the things I voted for pass, but I'm worried about Issue 2 - needs to go NO! I worry that it's going to hurt the small farmers, even though big ag wrapped it up with a nice bow. :(

Missed two on my lab quiz. Not entirely happy, as I prefer to get 100s, but I guess I should be happy with a 94%. :P

Looking forward to hearing more election results and have been desperately searching for my popcorn pan as I'm craving some fresh popped popcorn.

DH installed a shelf by his desk and has been slacking on installing mine. MIL said that FIL would do it on Friday when they watch the kids, so I keep throwing that out there for DH. ;) I'm hopeful that it'll be done before Friday as that would go a LONG way to clearing off my desk.
