Halloween was great! Will's costume was as cute as can be. I had what I think was an inspired costume...Will's school had a party on Saturday morning and I was so tired from the week that I didn't think I could figure out anything for me to wear. BUT, as I was laying in bed wishing Will wanted to sleep a bit more, I came up with my favorite costume ever. (okay, I loved a couple years ago pre-momdom when I went as Girls Gone Wild. no shirt, just a bra, and an eye bar but that was then...) I decided to go to the party as a "new mom." I put on a pair of nice pj's and pushed a sleep mask up on my forehead. I had my hair in a mess too. It was awesome. I didn't have to get out of my pj's all day. so sweet. My Aunt Nancy arrived on Saturday afternoon and we had a great time prepping for the trick-or-treaters. unfortunately, it started pouring just as the sun went down and we had very few kids come. Which means I've been eating the leftover candy all week. not good. so good. With the rain, and the lateness etc. Will only did two houses of trick or treating. He wasn't impressed. He didn't know why he couldn't just go into my neighbor Frida's house and play with her dogs.
My favorite moment, was at the party that morning. Will was holding a cookie, when I said, "Hey Will, they've got broccoli!" He dropped the cookie and ran over to grab some broccoli. I've never been more proud!

Job search is going okay. I've applied to some that would be good money but pretty dull, and a couple that would probably be not great money but cool, and one (fingers crossed) that could be a dream job!
I am thinking of all of this as a really good thing. Time to try something new!
