Gorgeous Day

It is so beautiful out there, I wish we could take another road trip but we have to work this evening. This is Halloween in case you haven't noticed and every Halloween our church has what we call Family Fun Night. It's a safe alternative to trick or treating. Several places in town are doing similar things. It will be from 6:00 until 7:30 tonight. Bill and I are running the children's cake walk. I think it will be a lot of fun. Afterward we will have to clean up and get things ready for Sunday. We won't be alone, lots of people will help, they always do.

I've been trying to get 5 servings of vegetables and fruits every day. So far I've been doing pretty good. My normal way of eating is meat, bread and potatoes. So veggies and fruit are a big change. It's having a positive effect on my physical troubles, the IBS is pretty much gone. Now it I could just get rid of this cold. Bill and I have both been sick for a week but we can't stay home from work. To shorthanded down there. We still can't hire another full time person because the workmen's comp thing with the other (soon to be former) employee isn't settled yet.

Last Sunday we had 9 kids in Sunday School. I have no idea how many we will have tomorrow, there's been a lot of sickness going around. I hope no one gets that swine flu crud.

I'm through crocheting the granny squares but I haven't gotten around to sewing them together yet. Too lazy. I think all the time about drawing and painting but haven't done any of that either, too lazy. Need to get with it.

Boy, I can sure relate to that lazy thing. The painting is the one thing I've managed to stick with for many months now. I've never lost that love of it. Hoping you and your husband both are feeling better when you wake this morning. Watch yourselves and not let it progress to misery, ok? Maybe you two can head out for a nice ride today?

Hi Schnauzermom! Good to see you after a long while :). It sounds like you are really trying to eat healthy. It is hard to get that many veggies and fruits in, but I also try to do that as well. I used to use my juicer, which helped get more veggies in, but it was expensive to juice all that produce so I stopped. It will definitely make you feel great eating that way though!

Hi SM! I'm just wanting to say hello! I miss you. I bet you are busy on Facebook though. When you are done your granny afghan will you take a picture of it for me? I'm excited to see it!
