Maybe I should dress like the man with long white hair in the store right now...

I need help.

I need a Halloween outfit.

Usually, I have my attire planned way in advance, but this year, I major failed.

On a completely different note, I drug out some old clothes the other night looking for some creative ingenuity to come bursting from my brain and tried on a specfic skirt that I wore around the age of 20. To all of my friends from that era: whyyyyyy did you let me wear that???? I just hope that I never dropped anything when I had it on because bending over is totally not an option in this loin cloth of a skirt.

Okay, anyways.

My ideas for cheap, homemade Halloween outfits are tapped out.

Help me.

At least so I don't have to dress as this....

Which is what I'll be if I keep obsessing over my outfit.

My hands are man hands now.

It has been an interesting 2 months at my job. We (i.e. my boss) decided that the entire warehouse needed to be remodeled. Annnnd I was JUST the person for the job.

So, in a nutshell, I've been moving stuff across 80,000 square feet for 8 weeks. I won't lie about it, it sucked. Bad. Like made me cry some days bad. I've picked up things that were way too heavy for me, gotten dirtier than I ever have before, and gone home completely worn out and sore.

But! We're almost done. And it really does look good. It's much more organized and eye-catching. And I'm starting to see the fruits of my labor, which is nice in itself.

Don't get me wrong, I do NOT want to move another stock pot, frying pan, storage box, or steam pan again in my life, but I have accomplished something huge. And that's pretty cool, I guess.

Saturday Smorgasbord...

• Tonight is my first NASCAR race. There's a few things thoughts that go along with this one, so we'll just make another little dotted list thing under this....ready? Okay.
• I don't know who to pull for.
• I heard there might be a pink car for breast cancer? I mean a pink car??? I'm pulling for that guy.
• If it's anything like the rodeo, I need to be dressing redneck so I won't be getting weird looks thrown my way the entire evening. "What's that prick doing here? Doesn't she know she don't belong?" Ouch. What those country girls don't know is that I grew up here, too, and can spit tobacco, shoot skeet and go muddin' with the best of them......
• Just kidding about the tobacco part, promise Mom.
• My birthday was fabulous!!! Dinner and fun times with friends. A trip to Asheville with the boy. Cake. More cake. Mooorrreee cake. Family time. Okay....it was awesome. :)
• Last night, we had the pumpkin carving contest. I don't really know if it was a contest? I mean, nobody won, but we had fun nonetheless. Below is my punkin. I'm not one to brag, but, that's pretty awesome, yeah? Eeeekk!
  

Okay, I'm out of time. Love everyone. Happy Saturday!!

On the 11th Day of October My True Love Gave to Me...A Caralee!

I broke out the Christmas music this week. It's October...everything is fair game. 

What is some of my favorite Christmas music, you ask? (I know you asked)

This.

They have a new album out, "Twist." Somebody can buy me that if they'd like. 

Eh hem. I do have a birthday coming up in oh....5 DAYS. ;)
