For some reason, I’m really giddy about it being Halloween this year! Maybe because both kids can somewhat participate. I shouldn’t get my hopes up too much can since it’s going to be like 25 degrees while we’re ToT and the kids won’t last long. It’s also the first year we won’t be having friends over so it’ll be a pretty quiet night. Oh well, I still love Halloween! Couldn’t resist adding some cat ears for the day.

Oh, and I took a 1.5 hour lunch to get N from preschool because I wanted to hear about her day (normally DH does pickup), and it's so dead at work. Then went home for lunch and the rest of things for our living room were delivered so we put up the new curtain rod and hung curtains. I'm in love with the way everything came together! I bought an ottoman from overstock that is essentially a knockoff pottery barn ottoman for 1/3 the price and it is awesome. My sister has the PB one and I'm going to pretend I didn't realize it was the same. lol

I hate windows updates with a vengeance. I feel like I can never actually use my laptop because of these stupid updates. That’s all.

For real, someone come take my CC away and get me another one, since I have the numbers memorized.

Henry, the father hippo at our zoo, died. NOOOO! Was he sick? He's been sick for like a month. They said his kidneys hadn't been working properly but he was perking up after a round of antibiotics. But then started to decline again.. They euthanized him this morning due to poor quality of life and no chance of recovery. I'm irrationally sad about it.

I snapped a couple when I was home! The sofa table is the one Dh and I made last week. The curtains replace some old vertical blinds. Not sure why didn’t do curtains sooner, it’s so much nicer. I still need to figure out what I’m going to do with the sign on the wall. And here’s a before. I love how much cozier if feels now

I hope it's open so we can see Fiona. I'm glad they had her, I'd worry about Bibi declining if she was all alone.

I will now be watching yet another episode of How to Get Away with Murder. I finished the first 3 seasons on Netflix and I'm now watching the 4th online. I"m addicted.

I made a run to Costco and decided to get some flowers for my table, well the darn Halloween decorations were in the way, so I took them down. I took down Halloween decorations, ON Halloween. That is how much I dislike this day. wineallthetime I know you’d get me.

I just started the Crown on Netflix. Seems like something flamingo would like. Have you watched it? More importantly, if you have, is there going to be another season?! 2nd season is December 8th

Chase had a low grade fever earlier today and was super fussy all afternoon. He's had some Motrin but I am still considering bringing him out for TOTing. We'll be out for such a short time and I know he'll be interested to see all the kids. Decisions, decisions...

If it is still not bad I would go so he doesn't feel left out.

M’s birthday thread lured me back in here today. I read through today’s thread and I am so out of the loop!!! From what I gathered, it appears that chrisy01 and cagoldi and xolastunicornxo are all pregnant! Huge congratulations to y’all!!! Is there anyone else?? Quick update here- we are getting closer to the big move. The massive renovations on the new house are in full swing. Right now we are just working on figuring the logistics of timing the move, living in two places for a while, and DH going back and forth for a few months. We had M’s birthday party this past weekend and my parents drove up with my almost 5 year old niece. My cousin flew in town as well. It was a great party, but afterwards my dad told me he was having some heart palpitations. I listened to him, and sure enough his heart rate was very irregular and tachycardic, so my cousin and I took him to the ER. He was in Afib, was admitted to the hospital, and had a cardiac catheterization yesterday morning. Thankfully everything looked good and he was discharged yesterday afternoon. Meanwhile though, M woke up crying with a headache, stiff neck, fever, and vomiting overnight Saturday. I was pretty convinced she had viral meningitis, but as of Monday afternoon she was pretty much back to normal. Between M, my dad, an extra toddler, a longer visit than planned due to the cath (which took away my day to get shit done yesterday), it has pretty crazy around here. Today M and I are hanging out and having a “Maggie/Mommy day” for her birthday. Going back to work will be like a vacation!
