Happy Halloween! This was the last pumpkin to carve. It was getting mushy on the top and I waited until last night to do it.
This pattern was kind of hard to do. It’s funny that they look like a jumble when carving them and then when the light is in then you see it.
Sometimes it seems like a month will go by fast, but for some reason October seemed really long. We both commented on that today.
Anyway, I did make a few goals for October and this is the result:
1. Move. Done and never again. Ever. Still have a lot of boxes to unpack and rooms to finish, but the worst is over. Now if only the old house would sell.
2. Get back to the gym. I just got back this week, nothing like cutting it close 😀 , although I still need to get some kind of schedule going with it. It felt good to be lifting again and I wasn’t even sore the next day, which I think is because of all the physical work that we did on this house using all my muscles.
3. Get my eating back into some semblance of normal. This is a work in progress. We are definitely cooking more, but I still have been snacking too much.
4. Finish the dining room. Done! Other than hanging pictures.
Next up is the living room LOL! I promise on Sunday I will do the before and after of the kitchen, too.
Have a great weekend and safe Halloween!
That is an extremely fancy pumpkin! I can’t believe you can do all those little intricate pieces without cutting them off!
As always, good goals. Pretty similar to the goals I would have. if I actually made goals…
Haha – I did cut the tip off of one of her fingers, but I don’t think she felt it.
The dining room looks beautiful! You’re going to love your new house. Bravo on a job well done! I hope Pixie is happy too. She probably is, with so much space to roam.
BEAUTIFUL Lori! I am so enjoying all your before & after pics!
Fancy pumpkin!
You are the 2nd person that I’ve heard say October seemed long – must be that extra day:)
Your dining too looks gorgeous and I LOVE your table!!!
Considering how busy you’ve been you did very good on your goals. I need to get back to regular exercising too and watch what I put in my mouth. I haven’t been this heavy in years.
