Family and Holidays

Good Morning!
The overcast day is reminding me that we are in fall and holiday season is coming. Walking into my apartment last night also helped. The whole place still smelled of baking and the cider was on warming so it also smelled of apple cider. Since it was only an 11 hour day yesterday at work I had time to make dinner and relax before bed. As we all know a major part of fall is the holidays.
This is going to be a crazy few months. I will be working at least 4 days a week. Jono, it seems, is picking up more work every other day. I've lost track of what his hours are at the gym and how many people he is training on the side and how many classes he is going to be teaching at the gym. Needless to say neither will have much free time. So let me just lay this all out for you.
October starts in a week. Sometime in October we will be moving. Which means this month will be full of packing and organizing. There is of course Halloween. Now this isn't as big a holiday as you get older but I work with kids. And Halloween is on a Monday. So while I may not be gearing up for the holiday at home I will be at work. oh joy.
November is also going to be a little crazy. We will have just moved. So we will be unpacking and organizing. I see a lot of this in my near future. November also means thanksgiving. Since it's on a Thursday I think Jono will have work.  We are thinking of trying to go see my family for the day before thanksgiving. Then maybe thanksgiving dinner with his family? Like I said crazy busy.

December is christmas. Last year went well. We did christmas eve with my family (at my moms house) and then christmas day dinner with Jono's family. But this also means presents. I love giving presents. But this year may get a little stressful. I am going to try to make most if not all of my presents this year. So everyone expect homemade gifts. I know that to get everything done in time I need to start like yesterday. Needless to say I need to get started. And figure out what the heck I'm going to make everyone!
hugs and kisses
