I’m still making the lists!


I was challenged to do a clown Halloween look…and as fate would have it, we just watched Killing Eve last night and a character played a clown! So this is the look I decided to recreate! Unfortunately I didn’t have a clown nose and the makeup looked silly…so I changed course and did my own thing.





Four of my customers signed up for the Distributor account last month and three of them placed qualified orders which means I hit the rank of maiden! (It really doesn’t do anything major for me other than “yay I did it” but since I’m not into building a team it’s rare I even got this far!)

I also hit Ruby SeneSales, which makes 11 quarters in a row I’ve hit one of the three SeneSales levels!




We found this Sparty dog toy at Horrocks and of course had to buy it!





If I’m reading a Christmas-themed book I can listen to Christmas music, right?

When you travel to Michigan and are close to your first apartment you officially shared (after my cousin Lisa moved out), you stop for a selfie.

The name of the complex has changed slightly but it looks exactly the same. Tom had to stop me from knocking on our actual apartment door and asking to look around.
We also stopped to check out Horrocks. Holy shit has that place grown (since we were last there 20 years ago)!! I would kill to have something like that by us now! We managed to spend a few hundred dollars on fun food items like flavored meats and cheeses, bulk dried goods and treats, flavored bulk olive oils, and Michigan-themed products just to name a few. If you’re ever in the area, you MUST stop: Horrocks of Lansing
I apparently tweaked my back last night leaving the reception—and didn’t realize it until this morning when I tried to get up and out of bed and realized I had more than my usual amount of pain.
Walking out, I had half stumbled on some rocks (in my stupid heels—why did I try to be fancy?!) and “caught” myself. (But aren’t they fancy?! They looked amazing!)

I can walk (thankfully) but can’t bend at all. And Tom had to help me put my underwear and pants on. But isn’t that what marriage is all about?!
An outdoor wedding in Michigan on October 1? It was a daring move but it was the most amazingly gorgeous day to watch my cousin’s daughter (I googled and that makes her a first cousin once removed or I can call her a niece) Jessica marry…a marine!!







Yes you bet your ass I’m wearing my crown!!

No fun errands or escapades… We were on our way to Michigan for my cousin’s wedding (technically like second cousins – whatever my cousin’s kids would be to me!).


Birthday dinner at a super yummy Chinese restaurant in Saginaw.

And a birthday margarita, because of course. The waitress guessed it was my birthday – telling me her mom wears a crown, too. Hey, it got me $1 off. LOL

And then we realized we wanted water for the hotel room so stopped here.






Waking up…


And then…


And Katie isn’t even a teen yet.










I asked her to start some of her laundry last night. I didn’t check the laundry room until the morning and found this. The room was CLEAN the last time I checked. GRRR.

We assumed Maggie was senile because she didn’t understand she could walk through a smaller sliding door opening. She’d sit outside next to the opening and bark to be let in.
Well.
Olive does the same thing—this wasn’t clear to her.


She wasn’t thrilled with the sweater (she wants to chew on the loose ruffle/skirt part) but she enjoyed the walk.



She left the door open and put Olive’s bed there so Olive could see her waiting for the bus.
