Well - my sincere apologies - I lost track of time and didn't realize just how long it had been since I last wrote in the blog. So - Summary posts are always lame. I don't feel like they give justice to all that has been going on. I had a business trip to Houston and Arlington a while back and that was good. I was able to work with a lot of people and get a lot done. I came home and promptly got sick. It is no fun being ill. I awoke a few nights after my return with a sore throat. Boo.
Tonight I went with my family to get pumpkins to carve on Sunday. We picked out a lot of them. We got over $80 worth of pumpkins for all the kiddos and friends to carve. I never really carved pumpkins with Jan so this is a fun tradition we have now. I found a really wide short pumpkin with a big stem. I figured this was good for the front door. The good thing is this pumpkin doesn't have to move any time soon. Pumpkins are the perfect fall fruit... they are perfect for halloween as well as thanksgiving.
I watched the Astros win game 5 on the ALCS tonight. I love the Astros. They are like family. I get tickled when people have such vitriol towards them for the cheating scandal claiming their team would never cheat. For those of you who feel I speak blasphemes against your team - for your reading pleasure.
I am heading to bed early tonight. This cold is just no good. :-(
