can you believe it's already the end of october?? just last week, i remarked at how surprising a difference a few days can make in the daylight as i leave for work when the days grow shorter at this time of year. this morning, it was equally surprising - broad daylight as i walked to the bus, entirely due to daylight savings. and yet, dusk arrives well before i leave the office, and leaves me walking home on most days after dark. i love everything about this season - except the shorter days.
and it's cold out too - 29 degrees last night, barely reaching 48 degrees today. i finally gave in and pulled out a sweater from my closet - one i haven't worn since last winter. it fits so differently, so much better now. i think i need to invest in some long-sleeve t-shirts and embrace the layered look, else i'll have to replace my entire wardrobe.
the extent of my "costume" today is a pair of sequined cat ears that i picked up at joann's a few weeks ago - and how could i not?? if we take our neices trick-or-treating tonight, i may very well break out the eyeliner and add whiskers and a nose.
and while it's only halloween, today i begin my yearly project of selecting our corporate christmas card. i thought i was totally ahead of the game, until i flipped back through my records and realized that i started this on october 19th last year... oh well. ;)
otherwise, life is straightening out, and we're preparing ourselves for the onslaught of the holiday season. maybe i'll have some photos tomorrow!
