Oktoberfest was a lot of fun this year!  More so then it has been in the past - good company, good drinks, good times.  I would not exactly call it quality time for TG and I.  I miss him this week and he buzzed me today to tell me he sick in Cali - poor guy.  It is not unusual for him to get sick on work trips - he was once in the hospital in NC on a business trip with severe food poisoning. 

I am off work this Saturday - works out well because TG will be home late Friday and we get to go to (the pointless) season closer at BMO for the TFC.  It as a forgettable season but will be a nice way to spend the afternoon if the weather cooperates.

Work is slow - October was my best month last year. It is slow all around and the dealership as a whole is below targets.  Disappointing with a mortgage just around the corner.

Getting back on the WW bandwagon - focused!  I am spending some time at a spa clinic tomorrow and having dinner with my sister - going to be a good day!

Peace.

Fall is one of my favourite times of year.  I love the weather (for the most part), turtlenecks, apples, work being busier and being close to MOVING!  We are getting pretty organized and after this weekend we will have more storage to make bigger moves.  Our house is coming along and I feel so lucky.

TG is off to Cali for work.  The control side of me is a-ok and although I will miss him, I will get a lot done moving wise.  The other side of me is pissed and thinking that now is not the time for him to be away.

On the WW front, I had a minor lapse but and back on track and very close to the wife that loses 10 lbs in the first year (6 months) of marriage rather then gains.  I realize my mistakes (pumpkin muffin = ladyboner) and can make smart changes as we head towards the holidays.

Speaking of which - not looking forward to Thanksgiving.  My boy is not coming, my dad is not coming and I feel some obligation to go.  My family fakes functionality but I look forward to turkey and my cousins.

Oktoberfest!  TG and I have not missed since we first started dating.  I was indifferent this year with added stresses and TG's unknown itinerary I was sure we would not go.  As it turns out TG is leaving late Sunday which means we can enjoy the festivities (a.k.a. slightly sloppy drinking).  I am now looking forward to seeing our friends there and am glad we are making the effort to celebrate - roll out the barrel!

Stay safe,
