I feel bad that I haven't had a real personal post in a while. There's not anything really to tell! Karina is still doing fine in speech; her therapist said she could be done by Christmas! She's got another ear infection, only her second, but boy, I don't want to start down this road! We carved our pumpkin today, and Karina helped by choosing what shape to make the eyes, nose, and mouth. I drew the shape options on paper, and had her show me the one she wanted. So he has circle eyes, a long stretched-out triangle-y nose, and a frowny vampire mouth. We waited to carve it til today so it wouldn't rot before Halloween.
Today is my friend Stephanie's birthday, and I have to miss her party because of Karina's ear infection. Tomorrow is my godson Colin's birthday (he'll be 9!), and yesterday was Rachel's birthday from Second Time Around. There was a point in time where I knew someone with a birthday for every day of the last week of October, from the 24th to the 31st, no joke. It was crazy!
We've been making Thanksgiving plans, too. My cousin just bought her first house with her husband nearby, so we'll be going there for Thanksgiving day. It's exciting because I love seeing the whole extended family (on my mom's side). I was close to all my cousins growing up and love to see them. Then the next day we're going to visit a friend that David met online and has never met in person. He introduced me to her online, too, and now she's my friend, too, and I am very excited to meet her. She'll be in town to visit family. Then on Saturday, we'll be visiting my dad's side of the family to have Thanksgiving there, but it will be pizza. I know. That's because they figure everyone is sick of turkey by then. (Everyone except my husband!)
So that's it. I'm hoping we can still trick or treat a little with Karina, assuming she's not feeling sick. Otherwise we'll be hanging out at home passing out candy!
I wish all of you a happy weekend, and for those of you celebrating birthdays right around now, Happy Birthday!

David is online dating? Oh how exciting!!! I don't know if he's really dating or making friends, but my daughter met her now fiancee that way and then of course, there's me and my beau. Same thing but through blogging!
He isn't online dating, he's real life dating; this is a lady he met and became friends with. She's just a friend, but a very good one now. It is definitely amazing what the internet can do. I've now made a couple of friends since getting this blog thing started. :-) (Yes, you are one of them!)
