What We've Been Up To

Book Club enjoyed our get together this month at Windham Gourmet! We read "Love You More" by Emily Giffin- great read!
There have been more fun football games!
and tonnnnsss of hockey of course!
We celebrated Rob's BIG Birthday in a BIG WAY :)
The Boys of the Wedding Party Enjoyed a Morning of Golf Together Before the BIG Weekend!
Eva has loved a busy fall of sports- Hockey, Club Softball AND a new sport to her, Cross Country! She learned about endurance and pacing herself and getting more fit which lead to more speed on the ice- so fun to watch!
For Mama, it's all about Yoga, Lifting and The Rail Trail
I've been having fun getting creative with Eva's lunches
and we also had a blast with Diana during her Fall Break
and this will go down as one of my favorite pictures of all time- going to blow it up and call it "My Three Goof Balls"
Zach and Zoe's Wedding Weekend was one for the books! A wonderful time spent with family and friends...so so happy for them!
I enjoyed a night out and catching up with Lynn- my friend and TA Mentor
I took Zach and Zoe back to Logan so they could fly home after the wedding- it was great to debrief on the wedding together, detail by detail
Cass and I enjoyed our 12th Annual Risotto Night!
Eva loved every minute of the Olivio Rodrigo concert with some Softball Pals
and Diana hit the Pumpkin Patch with her Sorority Sisters
There has been more football funnnn....
and real estate on the side...the hustle is real :/
Remi gave us a big scare but he is ok for now...my poor Bub!
and Daddy rocked his work conference at The Mt. Washington!
Cass and I had brunch with our dolls when Lex was in town- so fun to catch up!
and Eva and I enjoyed a Fro Yo Date when she had a 1/2 day
What I'm Dreading
Nothing at the Moment!
What I'm Working On
SALES....it is all around me....day job...night job....volunteer work....just realizing there is sales in everything I do...even at home when I am "selling" dinner recipes to Eva...ha!
What I'm Excited About
Basketball Season at Merrimack...can't wait to get a glimpse of that atmosphere while Diana is cheering at the games!
and...the fact...that she just made the "All-Girls Mat Team" for Daytona....she is one of 18 girls who have been chosen for this highly competitive team and they will be competing at the largest Cheer Comp in the World in Daytona in April- woohoo! We are so proud of her and all of her hard work!
What I'm Watching/Reading
It has pretty much only been news and Dancing with the Stars
My Book for October was
"Getting Away With Murder" by Shari Lapena
So when Ted’s inheritance runs out and he makes a bad investment, they panic. How can they protect their beloved home and enviable lifestyle?
The answer is obvious. Or at least, it is obvious to Jill and Ted. The death of one wealthy family member—from whom they stand to inherit millions—could solve all their problems. Together, they will get away with murder.
As long as they trust each other.
As long as neither makes a mistake.
As long as there are no surprises…
So flippin' good...love her books...awesome suspense author...think Frieda McFadden...less twists...just as much panic and thrill!
What I'm Listening To
A new playlist Eva and I created called "2026/2027"...we will keep it running and keep adding to it this year and next year!
Right now it includes songs like " Pure" and "Great Expectation" both by Sienna Spiro, "Patient Zero" "Cleveland!" "Pink Clouding" and "Babylon" all by Taylor Swift (part of the Encore release/extension of her "Life Of A Showgirl" Album),"Dracula" by Tame Impala and "American Girls" by Harry Styles.
What I'm Wearing
Business Attire...
and Workout Clothes and then putting together cute outfits for weekends and nights out with jeans and sweaters/tops....like the following...
What I'm Looking Forward To Next Month
More Hockey...More Football (hopefully another game or two) and all of the Thanksgiving Weekend Traditions!
What Else Is New?
Though I do a bible study each year...I am going to get a new bible...hoping for Christmas...and prompted by my priest this past weekend, I am going to start with the Book Of John...any thoughts? Recommendations?
