Simply October

Happy Halloween!
on a ride to a patient.

It was one of my little goals to put up something on Saturday about some old pictures that I had found.  I ran out of time since I went on a DATE!  *gasp!* Don't worry, it was nothing serious and we didn't really click well after date number 2 on Saturday.  We decided to be friends and I doubt I will hear from him in the near future.

We did get to go to Barktoberfest in Frisco and my kids had a great time!  They had dog races, prizes (which I won alot!), food, and my dogs got to run some off their leashes.  After, we went to IKEA, no dogs, but some fun shopping and Swedish meatballs!  I walked away with some bags, a purse, about 8 toys, a lunch certificate for a grill, two t shirts, and some homemade dog treats.  My date walked away with a large dog bed, toys, t-shirt, and a gift certificate for the Cupcakery.  It was fun to have a relaxing Saturday and to dress up the dogs- even if I had to cut it short for work after.

Ileya was Dracula; Dai had a shirt that said "Black Cat Patrol Service" which got some compliments.

Last Wednesday, one of my patient's sons went in for minor surgery.  I sat with his Mom in the waiting room and brought this to cheer him up.  I had to find something manly and since he works on motorcycles, I thought this might work,

I freaked out Debbie (who returns from Vegas today!!!!) cuz it looks like my hair is cut short when I really just pulled it back.

Ok.  So, ya know, I've been an absolute PIGG this month!!!  I just wanted to say the most important thing in weight loss is the long term goal- keeping it off.  I just wanted to prove that I haven't been over doing it too terribly much!  :)
