Once again, it's been awhile since I last posted.
I have cleaned all the plants out of the garden. We still need to put leaves and then straw on for the winter. I pickled the jalapenos, made some enchilada sauce out of the last of the tomatoes, and made a bunch of pesto out of the basil (I freeze this in ice cube trays and add them to hot pasta for a quick meal.) JP ran out of his favorite sweet relish, and we were almost out of applesauce, but I had to buy produce to make those.
I also made a lego Jack-o-Lantern, complete with lights!
We have done some dressing up as well. J won a costume contest dressed as "2D" from the band "Gorillaz." I dressed as a Hockey Player to take my mom for testing at the hospital on Halloween day. L and I dressed as "Lord Gray" for a "Clue" themed Murder Mystery Tea at the Tea Shoppe.
In the meantime, JP has finished working at the location that he has been for the past 7 or 8 years (I can't keep up!) He will start his new position (which does not require the 45 min commute) in Dec. My parents have just returned from a week long trip to TX to visit my brother. They travelled separately - my mother by plane, and my dad by train...it's a long story! My mother recently had an MRI of her brain as part of a dementia work up, and may have an aneurysm, she has another test scheduled this coming week to confirm.
It's almost Thanksgiving and I'm trying not to fall apart!
