The Sunday Salon – October 26, 2008

It’s been a really nice weekend even though I haven’t gotten a whole lot accomplished. Last night one of my daughter’s classmates invited her over to see his Halloween decorations. It was a nice little party. She had a good time and so did I. My husband and son came home from Six Flags exhausted but they had fun too.

Today, we had planned to do something like hit a museum or zoo but my son just woke up (11am) and now I feel as if half the day is gone. We will head out for some lunch and then probably pick up some pumpkins as I have yet to do that. I’m also cooking chili in the crock pot for dinner. The house smells wonderful. Mmmmm.

While I was waiting for everyone to wake up I picked up Creepers, by Joanne Dahme. I won this book from Booking Mama and Geri over at Running Press. It’s a YA book but I am enjoying it. Just the right amount of creepiness for this pre-Halloween weekend.

What’s on your plate today?

Sunday Salon – October 19, 2008

Welcome! Welcome! Ahem…sort of groggy this morning. We went bowling last night. Not something I do regularly but I think I did pretty well. Okay, the kids may have done better than me but really, who is counting?

I’ve been keeping up with all the Read-a-Thon posts and I’m very impressed. A lot of pages have been read. I thought about participating this time around, but it would require quite a bit of planning on my part since there are kids in the house. Planning like, oh, sending them away for the day. Maybe next time. A day of reading does sound tempting.

Today I plan to finish reading Infidel and then I may crack open The Story of Edgar Sawtelle. I have to do this in between running more errands and taking the kids to a Kids Expo they heard about. It’s always a bit of a challenge to get it all in.

Have a good Sunday!
