Halloween Eve…

Hubby and I are watching Sleepy Hollow with Johnny Depp… We watched Pumpkinhead 2 yesterday… with still Trick or Treat and both Jeepers Creepers to watch… Along with hubby’s job hunting, my going to work, the boys going to school, and Halloween planning, the month has flown… I had planned a week off before Halloween that quickly went to a four day weekend to a three day weekend with a VIP visit on Tuesday… So here it is finally Halloween day tomorrow… We can’t wait to set up the yard for the arrival of the trick or treaters… The last two years Halloween was on a Friday and Saturday… so wondering if we will still have a full night of trick or treaters with school the following morning…

We had lots of rain last night but now the skies are clear and no rain for Halloween… with cool temps this year too…

Today son1 was off to work at his part time job… He’s working two jobs now, about 62 hours a week… He was supposed to get the Jeep smogged but didn’t check the hours of the shop being open on weekends, so will have to squeeze it in sometime during the week unless he found a different shop open…

Son2 made Halloween sugar cookies in home economics this week, so I had him make some for us today… He and son3 decorated cats, ghosts and pumpkins… In the morning they will carve Jack O Laterns…

I have been busy the last couple of weeks with work, doing homework with son3, making dinner, doing laundry, playing on facebook, walking with hubby, and eating…

My new eating habits went out the window in October… causing me to gain five pounds… However I had originally lost 33 pounds and I now am back down a pound and a half… So I am treating October as the month that my body got used to being at a 30 pound weight loss and how much I can get away with at keeping it that way… With work and walking son3 to school and back I have been keeping myself active and moving…

So come November First I have big plans for the month… Of getting back to my better eating habits of eating as one person, no snacking and seconds with a goal of losing around seven pounds to get to my goal of a 35 pound weight loss; cleaning the house; getting son3 into better school habits of sleeping, doing homework quicker and reading every day; and helping hubby to find a JOB…

But for now it is Halloween Eve, time for enjoying all things Halloween…

and turkey burgers… we are having turkey burgers and french fries for dinner while we watch Smallville from last night…

Happy Journaling…
