November?

I am not sure what happened between the last post and now. Most of it seems a blur of cooking, cleaning, knitting, teacher meetings, school runs and preparing for the upcoming holidays. I vaguely remember something about leaves turning and falling, rain, pumpkins, candy.... oh and a wedding!

No, I didn't run off and get married. I was asked to perform a wedding on Halloween. It was fun. The couple dressed like vampires and the guests wore costumes. I wore a black gown with a hooded cape. It was a small, at home family event, but I have never seen two happier people. I wish them all the luck and love in the world. Congrats!


Today I have been going over the shopping list for the week and the Thanksgiving dinner menu. We're going small this year. For the first time in known memory - Diva, Elvis and I will be home. Yes! Elvis isn't working... he won't be working Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve or New Years Day. I say this because they happen on his day off. I am hoping the people who are scheduled don't pull a disappearing act forcing him to cover for them.

I will update more soon, I wanted to prove I haven't kicked any rusty buckets. Back to knitting slippers for Diva. Winter has come early around here.
