Also, I'm sitting at Chuck E. Cheese, so this was my little bit of quiet time today.

Sitting down for a few minutes of "Halloween Wars" on food network. I don't know why I love this so much.  1413, the kitchen is clean, the pool is put away for next year, and I've cleaned up paperwork on my desk. I have also showered and curled my hair for the day. Halloween stuff is also out of the shed and in the house and I've put up a whole two things. It's a start. I have about 1
