Busy!

My weekend was busy with taking Chelsea to two parties. The first was a Halloween party and the second was a birthday party. She has quite the social life!

I spent some time working on some projects for the Idaho Scrappers Charity crop which is in Twin Falls on Saturday. I will be driving up there , spending the night and returning on Sunday. Chelsea is busy from 9:00 am until 8:30 pm on Saturday so she won't miss me anyway. Plus she is spending the night with her friend Lizzie, so she's actually happy I'm going to be gone.

While I'm there I will be working on projects for our church bazaar which is on the 18th of November. Maybe after that I can work on pages for myself!

I have a test in my computer class tomorrow and Thursday on Excel. I am amazed at all Excel can do and I am sure we just touched on the basics but it is a program I have very little experience with so I am really studying hard!

My Toyota Highlander just went over 100,000 miles. So now I am looking for a new vehicle. I really like the Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry. Both are around $20,000. I think I can get around $14,000 to $15,000 for my Highlander so I would only have to come up with about $6000 (which would include sales tax). There are some really nice 2006 models available. I've looked at 2005 models but they are running only about $500-600 less, so it's not worth going older to me. I may look at the Civic or Corolla also, since it is just Chelsea and me, with Scruffy tagging along occasionally.

I haven't done as well on my weight loss this week, primarily because of my lack of exercise. I don't know why I can't get motivated. I used to run 3-5 times a week and now don't even want to look at my running shoes. I need to get moving!

On Thursday I am going to watch a Celtic fiddle player with a friend. It was his choice, not mine, so we'll see how it goes. I've never actually heard Celtic fiddle but it might be fun. At least I'll be able to answer questions about it on Jeopardy if I ever go on the show! :)
