Ok so its been a whopping week since I've posted anything, where does time go? Whats happened since I posted last? Well let's see...last Friday we drove out to NJ to visit a friend and go to dinner, I got drunk, which seems to be a norm lately lol, and we ended up getting home about 2 am, lol. Saturday was a fun filled day of house cleaning, which I actually got the bf to help so it wasn't too bad ;-), then off to the thrift shop to find pieces of our Halloween costumes, picked up some pizza for dinner and chocolate for dessert and spent the rest of the night watching Movies and FINALLY making my Halloween bags, we ended up having 69 of them, which surprised me considering the bf and I have been eating the candy just about every day since I brought it home 3 weeks ago. Who buys Halloween candy 3 weeks before Halloween? Dumbass me that's who. Next year I'll buy it 10/30 and make the damn bags that night, maybe then we won't eat it all, yeesh!
Sunday we just went to lunch and the Grocery store and surprisingly the bf only cost me $10 at the grocery store. Usually when he goes I spend a freaking fortune, this time he was very well behaved :-). I watched Desperate Housewives and Brothers and Sisters Sunday night and that was the lovely end to my quiet weekend.
Monday I actually was able to get into the basement to start going through all my crap to see what I can put up on eBay and what is really just junk. I was able to get through most of it, though I fear my posters and magazines are ruined from the moisture. I found some really cool old toys of mine too, Trolls, Legos, Chutes and Ladders (VHS Version), Candy Land (VHS Version), some old Popples and Barbies. Lots of fun stuff. I think most of the Barbies and Porcelain Dolls I will be selling and the other stuff will just be packed away in better containers instead of just boxes to help prevent moisture from creeping in.
I think tonight I might actually get to take some pictures of my crap to put up on eBay and we'll see how the night goes from there. Can't spend too much time on it though, House is on tonight :-). Tomorrow we have dinner with a friend for her Birthday. We're going to McCoole's in Quakertown, we've never been there so it's always fun to try some new things. Especially when they involve food :-). Thursday I'm going to dinner with some friends, putting the finishing touches on our Halloween costumes and hopefully starting to make the desserts for the party, we'll see if I get all that done lol. Friday will be the overspill of Thursday and hopefully some laundry and relaxing can sneak in there too.
Saturday we'll doing stuff around the house until its time to get ready for the Halloween party and Sunday we have dinner at a friends house, PHEW!! That's a lot of stuff!! We're such busy people ;-) Hopefully this weekend doesn't fly by, I could use some relaxing time :-).

Is It 5 O'clock Yet?
Gosh it's such a dreary day outside, overcast and cool which means I have my slippers on under my desk at work :-P I really need to start getting some better sleep, I feel like a zombie again today and have zero motivation to get anything done. I've spent part of the morning working on some things for work and have a meeting relatively soon.
After that I was thinking about trying to find a costume for the Halloween party our friends are having. Apparently my pumpkin costume wasn't a good idea, so I guess I'll have to think of something else. I have no clue what to be, a pirate? a wench? a queen? a pregnant cheerleader? Lol I like that one :-) Argh, this is too difficult lol. All of these ideas sound stupid to me, I can't decide. I'm just not a Halloween person, as I've said before, I really hate dressing up its over-rated as far as I'm concerned. Oh well.
I really need to get the Trick-or-Treat bags put together this weekend so the bf and I will stop eating the candy, lol. That's what I get for buying 15 pounds of candy the first week of October, gosh I hope there is enough to make some bags, lol. I'm sure I'll be going to the store this weekend to get more.
This day is just dragging on....geez. I just want to go home, curl up in my pjs, watch Grey's Anatomy, do some laundry and attempt to eat some popcorn for the first time since I got my tooth pulled. Looks like I'll be on my own for Grey's tonight too which is even better, no interruptions ;-).

Isn't This Week Over Yet?
This has been the longest 3 1/2 day week ever!!! Geez! And technically its still not over, we're getting close though lol. It was quite eventful, work wise anyways. I got a lot of clean-up work done that was kinda just thrown in my lap when I started so that's always a plus.
Home wise nothing new, as usual, still looking for a puppy, still not finding one, lol. I am SO ready for the weekend though, even though it will be very busy. Saturday I have to drop the bf off at a Rock Band party (after we pick up the pretzel tray and beer of course), drive an hour to my mom's, go to my Grandmother's house and get whatever furniture I want before they clean out the house, visit with my Mom and Dad a bit, drive back home, unload the furniture, and then go to the Rock Band party. Lol busy Saturday.
Sunday will be a fun filled day of cleaning, laundry and cleaning the fish tank :-(. I'm not looking forward to cleaning the fish tank but it needs to be done, there is black algae starting to grow in there and I can't seem to get it under control, grrrr. Hopefully Sunday I can squeeze in time for a nap and some video games.
I guess our friends decided on having a Halloween party, yessh, I hate dressing up. Even though it's hard to find costumes this time of year, I'm sure we will go. It's especially hard for him, he'd have to get a super awesome costume to top last year's home-made Hulk Hogan costume. Man he looked awesome :-) I'm so happy to say I had a hand in making that bad boy & it was my best work ever ;-). My kids will all have awesome Halloween costumes that I know. Me on the other hand, not so much. Last year I went as a farmer because I spent so much time worrying about his costume I didn't put a ton of effort into deciding on what I wanted to be lol. So I found a pair of my Dad's old overalls, a flannel shirt, put my hair in pig tails, bought a straw hat and instant farmer girl :-) I do have to admit I did look rather cute ;-). I'd much rather sit at home and see the cute little ones who come out all dressed up for Halloween and hand out candy than get all dressed up. Which reminds me, I still have to make trick or treat bags....argh. The fun never ends.
