crystal's little corner

we have a halloween problem. alex hates the idea of carving a pumpkin, and is basically refusing to wear the costume. my only weapon is that i'm going to bribe him with treats & candy. things are busy.. we've all been sick, alex & i are on antibiotics, mark seems to be on the upswing. i applied for a new job at work as sales coordinator... far cry from what i'm doing now, but i think it'd be a cool job, i'm qualified, and best of all, it would be back to a monday to friday gig. i heard a rumbling through the hotel grapevine that i'm up for a phone interview, so please, pretty please, keep your fingers crossed for me. HOPEFULLY pictures will follow of alex in his costume, carving pumpkins.

something's wrong with my brain.. i'm actually entertaining the idea of another baby. somebody stop me! LOL :)

went out & voted, despite the chest infection that has kept me laying low since last friday. blick.

wow.. 2 1/4 down this week. :)

Really, there's nothing better then turkey dinner. Went home to River Philip to have an early Thanksgiving dinner yesterday since Dad is soon heading out to Manitoba to work . :( He won't be home 'til Xmas, so we're all REALLY gonna miss him! Much love daddy-o!

i finally lost my first 10 lbs since joining TOPS! lost 2 1/4 pounds tonight, for a grand total of 11 1/4 lbs down.. only took since last november!

we started out by putting alex in a snazzy new outfit: (forgive the sideways view.. i'm an idiot!) then went to breakfast as planned at the kiwi.. where we shared eggs, sausage & spelt toast! (his new "cheese" face) after a quick trip to lunenburg, we went to oak island and jumped in the pool for a bit.. alex had blast and didn't want to leave! when we finally got home, we snuggled in for some finding nemo, where alex finally saw the events of the day catch up with him :) ps.. they caught up with me too, because i was in bed by 8:30 last night!

So, I'm off today, and Alex & I are spending the day together.. It's so rare that we get to have these days that we're going to make it special.. Breakfast out at the Kiwi , then to work for a swim in the indoor pool , then home for lunch, and an afternoon at the park :) Pictures will follow, I'm sure! xo
