Month: October 2004

I thought that would be funny, cause yesterday I couldn’t see, and today I’m ignoring anyone who wants to talk about the Red Sox.

I stopped watching after the 3rd inning. I had the game recording on the Tivo so I just checked in periodically. That’s really all one needed to do.

I will say (and this is all I will say) that I’m impressed when ANY team can score 5 runs on two outs. Too bad they didn’t score 11.

I got my eyes dialated today at my eye exam, and boy, I’m glad my eyes aren’t this bad normally. Good gravy, I couldn’t see a darned thing! It’s finally getting a little back to normal. But at one point I had to ask my mom to look at my cell phone and scroll to my husband’s work phone number in my address book. Goodness, maybe we just have that done to appreciate our sight a little more than we usually do.

Thank you eyes!

A few shots. I was doing video because I promised to send some recent stuff out to a friend of mine (wait, I’ve already talked about this, right?) and wanted something fall-ish. So when you do that, you don’t take as many shots with the regular camera. This picture is one of the still shots from the video camera. This was our first runner-up pumpkin:

We ended up with a ten-pounder that I happened to pick out. Junior lost interest pretty early on – probaby around the time he discovered that a good 1/4 of the pumpkins still in the field were in some state of decomposing/being eaten by woodland creatures. He was a bit grossed out.

I did catch this photo, and I like it enough that I’ll share it with you even though I don’t normally do that. Apparently, my son is now an L.L. Bean model.

Today we go out to pick a pumpkin in the field. I am going to encourage him to pick a small one, because there is nothing less fun that walking around with 30 pounds of pumpkin, trying to get back to the place where the hay wagon is going to pick you back up.

I got some great pictures the last time we went to this place. It was two or three years ago. I’m going to try to take some more today.

I know a lot of people will be writing about Martha Stewart today, so I’m going to buck the trend just this once.

I will be writing about Jessica Simpson.

Dear Jessica,

I heard that you have a CD of holiday music coming out. That’s cool. I happen to be a big collector of holiday music.

Good gravy. The things I have to do around here to help people out.
