We finished what we started.

We learned how to throw dough.

We still have a lot to learn.

We had a visit from our soul sisters.

We learned how to be gluten free. We are still learning.

We celebrated our heritage.

I went to ranch camp. I killed a chicken.

We hiked the canyon.

We visited with Jeff’s parents.

We got a Volvo.

We decorated pumpkins. We got our faces painted.

We celebrated Halloween. We dressed as literary characters. (And mine workers.)

And paparazzo.

We voted. We won. We love California.

We gave thanks.

Melissa turned 25. She got a yellow kettle.

We got Christmas trees.

We decorated them.

We saw Needtobreathe.

We hosted a holiday party. We made creme brulee.

We hosted Yankee Swap.

We thought. We mused. We pondered.

We finished PW. We are champions.

5gts: Friday before Halloween Edition

1. Today I am dressed as one of my coworkers, who I told last year I would dress as. He came up to me today and said, “So are you dressed like me?” (I was.)

2. Tomorrow I am going to be dressed as Alexander. I have a red wig. I have some fake gum to put in my hair. I got the book from the library. CC is going to be Harold. We’re set to go.

3. Someone brought us a pumpkin pie today. The small children are dressed up, and there is a Halloween Party on the field. I love working at a school.

4. Speaking of working at a school, and libraries, today I went and used my library card at the school library for the first time. I have a month to read the books I got out, and there is no limit on the number of books staff check out. Cannery Row, Tortilla Flat, and Sweet Thursday, here I come!

5. Despite missing yoga Tuesday (slow carpool…) I will be going tonight, before CRAFT NIGHT. What, my friends, is better than Craft night, you ask? Nothing, my friends, nothing.

What are you doing this Halloween weekend?
