Celebrate the Small Things!

Friday means a lot of things; the end of my work week, the day I can where a casual shirt to work, the day when I can be more flippant (wait, that's everyday), and the day I get to share all the cool stuff I've done this week. Thanks Viklit for giving us an outlet!

First off - The winners and runner-ups for spooktoberfest were posted yesterday here and here. Go check out some really great flash fiction pieces. I really enjoyed meeting some new and very entertaining and interesting people. And of course reading the entries of some of my favorite bloggers and long time friends.

Second - Halloween, despite the horrible weather, was a success. The kids had a really great time going back to the old neighborhood to hang out with their friends from their old school. I hope you guys had a safe and fun day as well. In the comments below tell me what your kids went as or what your favorite costume was that you saw wondering about.

 Third - Now that I have hit my goals with my personal trainer we have decided to set new ones... run a 5k. Well technically it's 4 miles. My goal is to run a mile and walk 1/4 and then run a mile, then walk again. Eventaully I want to be able to run a 5k straight through. My first race... Dec 14th... in the snow. Ugh!

Fourth - Those who celebrate... Christmas is in 54 days. No... I'm not even close to being ready. And even though halloween is my favorite holiday, I am excited to put the fall decor away and put up the Christmas stuff.

Oh also, check out #ResurrectionBlogfestII hosted by Some Dark Romantic!

Have a great Friday and weekend!!
