Alright friends, I have to admit. I did not finish my novel. In fact, I gave up writing it about a week ago because I decided I couldn't force it. I had too much going on already between my 50-book-challenge and starting a new workout regimen. BUT, I will try again next year. Promise. And maybe after the New Year, I can go back and look at the 12,008 words I did write and do something with them.
Here are some of the things that kept me busy this past fall:
 |
| Painting the bedroom |
 |
| The Final Product: Kangaroo Tan |
 |
| Went home to visit nieces and a nephew! Here are Zoe (4) and Tyler (2 1/2) |
 |
| And celebrate Scott's 29th birthday. |
 |
| And celebrate my Mom's 60th birthday (complete with surprise party and old fart novelties.) |
 |
| And celebrate Erin's 30th birthday. (And visit little Dani, 1.5 months here. I'm obsessed). |
 |
| I attended a bachelorette outing for Jamie Lyn. We found this random Catepillar out by our hiking path. |
 |
| And later we enjoyed some beverages and candy corn in Scranton, PA. |
 |
| I was personal attendant to Jamie at her wedding on Oct 16th. |
 |
| Scott and I had lots of fun! |
 |
| And I got to know some very nice ladies a bit better. |
 |
| We went to Philly to celebrate Thanksgiving with the Schwartz Family. With us here is Liam, age 7. He was a week old during the first Thanksgiving Scott and I ever spent together. :) |
 |
We got to hang out with a bunch of cuties for 2 days. Here are Grandma Judy, Liam (7), Aunt Elaine, Noam (4), Scott, me, Adam (Scott's 2 1/2 year old doppelganger), Amy and Roan (2 1/2, Adam's twin). We had so much fun!
It has been a busy fall, but great! Lots of memories have been made here in NY, at home in Mn and visiting family in Philly. Now to finish those last 4 books for my 50-book-challenge and our year will be complete! |
