freedom I feel the same exact way. I've been looking at pictures of Paris and daydreaming of being there Alone! I need a freaking break and after yelling at my kid this morning I'm so so done with this week and things in general. Ugh

I hope you can do something by/for yourself.

I'm thinking Greece. I went with h last year so he's not missing out on anything.

Hope your day turns around!

Thank you! I hope you get to go. Greece sounds great and even better that he won't be moping about missing out.

My mom and my sister went a couple weeks ago and the airport was on strike--they almost couldn't get back home, but luckily for them, the strike lifted. Just FYI, because I might be wary going there until that's all worked out.

Happy Friday, people!

My brother and SIL just got back. They went for her 30th. Man I miss DINK days sometimes. It looked like they had an amazing time.

Smh. So lazy.

Oh Lord, I just signed up for another (black people) meet up. It's a holiday potluck. You're supposed to bring a dish and drink. Which is fine. But then also bring 2 dozen sweets to swap. I do not bake! It also mentions you can bring candy, I'm about to show up with a bag of reese's cups. Plus I do not need 2 dozen sweets at my house to eat myself. Can I opt out?! lol

@natariru, how long were you in LA for recently? Was it just Fri to Mon?

I'm contemplating going in Dec while my boyfriend is there. Basically for a weekend away from the cold lol. Looking at flights I'd arrive in LA at 11pm on Fri and then leave at 9:30 pm on Sun...red eye flight lands at 5:30 am on Mon. Could get ready at home then head to work. I think I could possibly get away with leaving around 2 or  3 on Friday because I'll be on an elective then, but still it'd obviously be quick turn around. 

I'm not sure if it's worth it. I don't want to take a day off because I want to save my days for 2 long vacations in spring and early summer 2017.

We had family photos taken today. It was gorgeous out and I'm glad we were able to do them outdoors. I hope we get at least one good picture. We're awkward in front of cameras so we'll see.

We did also take a picture on our own front steps using a tripod. That came out well so I'm happy.

A child inside the pumpkin?!?!?!

Lol yes. No exaggeration. I've seen more than one (white) Facebook friend with their child inside a pumpkin.

No. Too messy & I can't carry a pumpkin that big anyway.
