Halloweenies

VB is going strong, gym was pretty good. Just found out that I need to be able to do a pullup to get into the class I want to do starting in January, so we'll see if I make it. And Rog and Kaleb are committed to going to the gym starting next week, so we'll see if they make it. (And Becky misses me as a workout buddy, so one day if we move to WY and I force her to work out, she'll probably do it lol). 

You can almost see who we are. 

It was Halloween week and since Roger owes me at least one haunted excursion a year, he dressed up and went to some friends' houses with me - not for treats, just for a hang out in costume. We were the Princess Bride duo, although since I wasn't sure if Roger was actually going to come, I really only put effort into the cooler costume. And you can't even see the princess costume, which was just a red dress and gold belt. 

Yayy Joe Carter's son!

As he reminds me, he hates Halloween. But if I can go hunting with him, he can do one night of Halloween per year and pretend to like it. I'm still kind of mad about how this goes, but we're getting closer. And speaking of hunting, I set Roger up with my friend Joe and they decided to hunt together. Rog was a big help and everyone had fun. Joe's son shot his first deer in the wild (vs a farm in Texas) and had a blast and Joe has some close shots and decided to call it when the snow moved in. (Even though Roger swears it's the best hunting weather.)

I did some end of month budgeting and told Roger not to let me buy any more books for a minute. But to be fair, I've been reading them. My recent trilogy is And I Darken by White. The order of the series is misleading if you look at the backs of the books, so I started the third one second and it took me a while to figure out what was wrong. I've also been listening to Brandon Sanderson's BYU series on how to write and it's been motivating. Although I am not good at middles. I am trying to get better at them. 

Here's my contribution. 

My favorite coworker had her last day on Wednesday before she started work as the director of therapies at the new VA facility in town. She will be amazing at it and I am so excited for her, but sad for us. I am not impressed with our other options. But we do have a new PTA that will be starting in a few weeks to help with the load. Until then, I have double the patients, so I'm still trying to figure out how and if that will work. We had a big party for Jade and a pumpkin decorating contest - where I came in second. To be fair, Jade's was a really cool half-carved eye and I thought it was a painting contest.
