Family Fun Day

Currently Reading: Finished Going Down? by Tea Trelawny yesterday, and it was great! A fantastic twist on a ghost story, but more geared toward Valentine's Day than Halloween. Another recommended read!


Today we're taking the kids to the pumpkin patch. This will be my 4-yr-old's first real time (the first, he was only seven months old!) to pick out his pumpkin, take a hayride, and possibly navigate through a corn maze. Should be a fun day.

Check back tomorrow for any fun tidbits.

Update on Mom:
I spoke to Dad yesterday; she had an ultrasound which revealed fluid in her lungs. The extracted some of the fluid and were running tests to determine why she has had reoccurring pneumonia this past year. They might have released her yesterday, but my dad has come down with a nasty sinus infection, so I don't know if he was well enough to go get her! I'll find out more tonight when we get home.

Stop by Barb's and offer hugs. She's hurting with the loss of a beloved pet.

On the Creative Front...
Writing is slowly coming along; I managed to also write for an hour yesterday, and as always after a 'drought', it felt pretty darn good. If I can keep this up, I ought to be well into the rhythm by NaNo, which begins next Saturday. Now I just need to figure out how to get that widget on my blog...I think I'll do that on Monday. Anny, Kelly, and Dakota have them for their wips.

I also labelled all my pictures from last weekend. I still have to pick up some more either today or tomorrow, and put them into the photo albums. This is usually my 'rainy/snow day' project, so who knows when I'll actually get it done? Depends on which muse is visiting, I guess.
