Not much going on over this way, we did manage to get pumpkins for the kids and even carved them We got Michael his costume so now both kids are set there. Next weekend I’m going out to get Haley’s bday supplies for her small bday party the following weekend, I’m pretty sure we’re gonna get her a new a Doodle Pro since she loves to draw Oh in case I forgot to mention what my kids are going as, lol… Haley will be Belle tonight and Michael will be a Construction Worker (Bob The Builder-ish). I’ll take pics and send to you gals I know by email

I’ve added a page to my blog entitled Fit 4 Life… this is my way of keeping track of my workout/weightloss progress. For those of you who don’t know, I workout Monday – Saturday and yes I know that sounds like too much for some of you, but I’m determined to get the last of this weight off, lol! Anyhoo, Monday-Wednesday-Friday are my tough days, meaning my goal on those days is to burn 900-1000 calories (no more and no less). Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday are my lighter days, meaning my goal on those days is to burn 500-600 calories (again no more no less)… Sunday is my day of rest, with maybe a mile or two walk in the evening See now today is my light day since it’s Tuesday and I’ve already burned 500 cals. Anyhoo, I feel fitter and healthier than I have in the past few years and hubby and my family can notice the difference in my body and ‘tude, lol!

Okay so enough of my proud accomplishments … I can’t believe my little girl is gonna be 5 in two weeks!!!! *sobs* & my little Michael is going to be a whole 2 years old in a month!! *sobs some more*…. where the heck did those years go?! *sigh*… oh well, I’m gonna go make some Halloween cupcakes for the kiddo’s here in a bit.. so I better get started on cleaning. Anyhoo….

Happy Halloween & An Enchanted Samhain !!

Well now that Halloween is just two weeks away we’re probably going to go pumpkin pickin’ this weekend Probably Sunday since hubby is working twelve hour shifts Friday & Saturday for training. Looking forward to searching for a good pumpkin with our kiddo’s Michael is old enough now that I know he’ll venture off on his own to find one and of course his sister will more than likely help him pick the right one, lol! I’m hoping we go out to Target or someplace because I want to find me a progress chart for Haley so that I can try and get her to want to clean up after herself more often… I know she’ll be enthused at the thought of getting recognized for her achievments if it’s posted on display Also, need to find Michael a costume… or at least accessories to his clothes to make a costume, lol!

On another note, we’ll probably be up in VA for Thanksgiving week since we’ve got the Tech vs. UVA game that we’re going to… here’s hoping they improve by then, lol!!

Oh btw, sorry if you came by my blog and found the splash page for more than a day… that’s a whole long story, in either case it’s fixed as you can see and I’m getting my mail again so I’m a happy camper
