Just some stuff...

With Paul in El Paso on business until the 23rd, I've had to find things to do to fill the time each day...not really difficult for me.  :)  Here's a bit of what I've been doing:

• Weekly dinners with family, and taking dinner to my BFF, Lindsey!
• Started going to volleyball on Tuesday nights with the relief society women from three different wards in town.
• Went to the Feast of the Hunter's Moon!

The food is the real reason to go.  :)

Caida, pretending to be sad.  :)  See my facebook page for more photos!

• Saw General Conference...yay, Indy temple!!!  Also, went to a relief society meeting and took a class about cooking for two.
• Visited my sister's family in Portage.  Saw my niece's soccer game and went to a pumpkin patch/kid farm.

Pretty windmills on the way to Portage.

My sisters, mom, and niece.  :)

The sweet pumpkin patch...it's officially fall!

Riding back to the car.

The three little pigs...LOVE it!  :)

Kiddie maze.

• Went and saw my grandmother in Peru, IN, who just had her third stroke last week and isn't doing so well.  BUT, my adorable nephew made it much more endurable!

• Taking long walks with Obi, to the church or to a nearby park, etc.  I don't bring the fancy camera along for these, and the pictures on my phone are stuck there for the time being...
• Crafting!  This means many trips to Hobby Lobby and WalMart.  :)

• Planning Paul's birthday party!
• Practicing piano and flute...and just in time, since I am playing the flute with our ward choir for a Thanksgiving number.
• Cooking, cleaning, paying bills, blah blah blah...

Anywho, that's my mid-Paul's-trip update!  I'll post again when I have a computer and more to report.  Mostly I'm looking forward to having my husband back home as soon as possible!!!  Talking to him on the phone for a half-hour or so every day just isn't the same; even when his work schedule at home is a little crazy and I don't always get to see him much, at least we have our dinners together and can snuggle face-to-face.  Here's hoping the 23rd will come quickly!
