I kind of want to have a little Halloween party this year. Nothing too big, just something for maybe 10-12 people. I haven’t dressed up for Halloween in years, and I think I’d like to this year. I have no idea what I’d dress up as though, not really. I’ve thought about Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz (don’t knock it, that’s my favorite movie), or possibly just a mixture of things like creepy contact lenses to make myself some kind of monster. I’m not that great with this kind of thing, so if you have suggestion let me know! I don’t think I’d like anything gory though. There are a lot of young kids in this area and I’d hate to frightening them to bits, you know? I think Jo would like the whole pirate thing, so maybe I could even do something like that. If I could pull it off of course!

I guess I should probably work up a list of things I’d need for the party too. I should probably plan everything out as best as possible, as soon as possible. That way I can get invitations sent to those I want to attend. I mean, it’s already September 20th. October will be here before you know it!

Sometimes I wonder how some drivers are able to get and keep car insurance. Crazy drivers wound up being the biggest turn off of being in Calgary. Well, any big city in general really. It seems they followed us here though, because there have been a few instances where I was nearly sideswiped or rear ended in the last few weeks. One of those times happened while we were in Corner Brook earlier this week. I don’t know what makes other drivers ride up so closely behind another driver. Me personally, I try to maintain a safe distance between myself and the person ahead of me. You know, in case something happened and the driver ahead had to slam on breaks suddenly! This one guy in Corner Brook though, he would have been served a nice helping of my Escape’s bumper if something like that happened and we needed to slam on the breaks suddenly. Plus, if we were both traveling at a decent speed, I could have easily flipped! That’s a scary thought, considering we were up fairly high and near the water!

Well, not just yet! I’ve been super busy the last couple of days. Earlier this week I decided I’d go back to doing my own thing in regards to web & blog design. I’ve spent most of the time since getting the new design site set up. I’m pretty much finished with the actual design for it, and have added a few premades to the shop. I still have to work on getting the portfolio updated, modifying my TOS and getting that added up, plus I need to finish up the free price quote form. I’m hoping to have it up by midweek next week, though I had originally planned on a weekend launch (this weekend). I really felt like I needed to have at least one premade e-commerce design up before doing that though, and that is taking some time to perfect. This is the first time I’ve ever even attempted that but I really wanted to learn how so that I can offer a wider range of design services than I had before. All the time I’m putting in will pay off, so I’m OK with it taking just a little longer than planned.

But you know, after all of this is said and done, I’m going to have to look into some reno hotels. I’m definitely going to need a break!

I’m working on my design site tonight, and helping a lovely lady with the design I did for her a few weeks ago. There’s some kind of error when you flip between the 2 themes I made for her and I have no idea why! I’m working on a little something that I think will fix that though! Hopefully that will work. Actually, I have a feeling it probably will. Crossing my fingers anyway! I figured I had some free time tonight so I would fiddle around a bit before bed. Speaking of which, it’s calling my name. Tonight I’ll get to cuddle up under layers of blankets too because it’s freezing! My nose is even cold!

You know what else? I really wish there was a such as best diet pills, like I see advertised in all those infomercials. Though, then again, I`m reluctant to let go of some of my (bad) habits right now, so I doubt anything like that would really help much. Ha, ha! I`m so not dedicated to that right now!
