Another Halloween already?! At this point last year I was pregnant, mad that I was pregnant (was technically due Nov. 9) but in great shape....since coming back from Canada I'm sure I gained about 5-10lbs...the Wii Fit Plus told me yesterday I only gained about 5lbs shockingly....I have done some walking before braving the Wii Board however....
Sorry folks - V�in� does not have a costume...he will not be a Prince Charming, a bumble bee, a horse, a puppy or a frog...or any other exotic animal you can find in the depths of Walmart or Winners right now.
WHY? Because Halloween is not celebrated in Finland...there are the occasional costume parties among adults and some kids have a little party at their home as far as I know....but nothing like trick-or-treating...or haunted houses...so that means no huge candy/chocolate/chips sales tomorrow either.
Sigh.
I've discovered a new site called www.yarn.com and I'm in love. There are nice free patterns and I am working up the nerve to start one while V�in� is still asleep....it's 10:25am and he went to bed by 1am....and then there's the Daylight Savings Time (YAY my favourite day when I gain an hour!) and he's still out.
But this is good that we woke up relatively early today. Due to jet lag (I can fix it in myself easily but not the baby of course) - we've been going to bed around 2-4am...and getting up around 11am-12pm!
I feel a little more normal by waking up at 10am...maybe I should take advantage of this quietness and get some cleaning done!
Oh and on another note - I went downtown to have some "me" time...an hour of freedom as I call it...and went to the library and to the grocery store...and in the S Market downtown - there were Christmas decorations and Christmas candies/chocolates.....It obviously was set up awhile ago....but it's not even November 1st! I suppose now is the time to buy that candy and get it ready to be shipped...
