I am really hoping to get a lot done this week. I’ve been so unfocused lately. Scattered. Lost. I know, where’s the violin? I’m not terribly frustrated by it all, but it’s not like me to be this way. Not for this long anyway. There are just so many things that I want to do that none of them get done and then I end up wondering why. Well, enough of that.

Oh! Don’t forget to enter my giveaway of Tethered. The contest closes on 10/30. Click here for details.

Here’s what’s going on this week:

Monday, October 27, 2008 – Not much going on at work. I have to catch-up on a few things but no meetings today. I’ve got yoga at noon (thank goodness). Tonight I have a PTO board meeting so my husband will be taking my son to rehearsal and then I will pick him up afterward. Lots of running around for sure. Will have to eat dinner in between all of that.

Tuesday, October 28, 2008 – I am way behind on putting my son’s costume together for The Music Man. He has a costume check coming up so I will be visiting the thrift store today at lunch to try to find some of the pieces. I can’t sew to save my life so whatever I get has to be hot glued together. I have handled six shows like this and it works out great. As for reading, should be finishing up Creepers, by Joanne Dahme tonight.

Wednesday, October 29, 2008 – Hope to have my review of Creepers up sometime today. Yoga at noon. Meeting right after. After the meeting I am co-teaching a class with a co-worker. Um..have to fit lunch in here somewhere. My son has rehearsal tonight so that will give me some reading time. I will be starting The Inheritance of Loss tonight.

Thursday, October 30, 2008 – Taking a co-worker out for her 55th birthday today! She’s a good sport. We told her we had to take her somewhere that offered a senior discount. I know. Co-workers can be wicked at times. Co-teaching another class after lunch. Tonight, time to carve the pumpkins and roast the seeds. I love roasted seeds! We can’t carve them any earlier here without putting them in the fridge. It’s like 90 degrees this week!

Friday, October 31, 2008 – To those of you that celebrate it, Happy Halloween! I’m announcing the winner of Tethered today! I plan to leave work a bit early today so I can beat the traffic home. My husband is going to take my daughter to a few houses and then my son and I plan to hand out candy with one of his friends. I know my son will abandon me at some point so I plan to watch a scary movie in between the trick-or-treaters. I think it will be a late night since it’s landing on a Friday this time.

The Weekend – At this point we have absolutely nothing planned. I’ve been wanting to check out Victoria Gardens . It’s a huge shopping venue that I’ve visited once before, but I didn’t get to spend much time there. I would love to knock off a few Christmas gifts if possible.
