Happy Monday morning, my friends, and Happy Halloween to those of you who celebrate it! I hope you had a terrific weekend! We had a really nice weekend and a great visit with my Dad. Here’s how things turned out with my lists…
Play List
- Boot-camp. I didn’t go. I decided to have breakfast with my Dad instead. Good choice, I think.
- Enjoy spending time with my family and Dad. Indeed. We had a whole lot of fun doing things like…Spending Saturday afternoon in St. Charles, Missouri, watching the Cardinals clinch the World Series, shopping for Halloween finishing touches, Trick-or-Treating, and cooking and eating great food.
To Finish
- Quick run to the grocery store for weekend meals. Oh, yes, there were one or two of these. Reminded me why I usually prefer planning my meals ahead of time.
- Finish getting ready for Halloween! Check!
So all in all, it was a fantastic, fall weekend! I hope yours was terrific, too. I look forward to reading all about it in the comments. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
To Do:
Wash from trip – Done
Grocery Store – WalMart need to go to grocery store – Started
Switch clothes around if wash is finished for season – NO 🙁 Hopefully today I can tackle this project
Fun:

PLAY
1. Potluck dinner party with friends. Check and it was so great to catch up!
2. Date Night with Husband.Check!
3. See a show with my Mom and Aunt. Check!
4. Check out our new Habitat ReStore! Check! I was like a kid in a candy store.
WORK
1. Finish paint chip art. Check!
2. Finish styling Husband’s work area. Check and he loves it!
3. Make new dining room light feature. No check. When I went to the Restore, I found a really cool chandelier that changed my dining room lighting plans. Luckily, I hadn’t gotten far in this project so all previous materials can be returned. No wasted $$ or time and a much better idea, so I’m ok with no check for this one!
Got it all done, although had to make more than a few adjustments to our plans & expectations to get it done.

Oh, wow, Donna! What a mess you must have had this weekend. Hope things are settling down a bit.
As for us, I think we were all exhausted from the preparations done last week in anticipation of guests. Everything went well, but by Saturday I was sick with a cold and didn’t want to do much of anything that afternoon but lay around. Must have worked, though, because I felt much better on Sunday 🙂
