Oh October

October (usually) means:
All things Pumpkin
Pumpkin patch
Cool air
Rich colors
Sweaters, dresses, and boots
Oktoberfest
Polish Festival
Great beers
Soups... and so many more wonderful things!

October this year:
Charlie with double ear infections (twice)
Charlie with a barking cough
Me with Vertigo
Charlie falling down causing a laceration above his eye (thank goodness no stitches- hurray for Derma-bond)!

We had roughly a week this month where we were all healthy! It has been the worst October in history, but we have had some good times in the mist of it all. I am looking forward to November, even with the upcoming election I am hopeful.

Choose me!

I recently applied for a research analyst position through the county- but so did over two hundred other people. As much as I want this job, it feels wrong hoping 250 or so other people remain jobless. Or at least unhappy in their jobs.
