Whats been going on?

Central NY
October 1-15th

There has been no trips taken over these last few weeks. I have continued to be BLAH!!! Increased stress at the job and lack of motivation has continued to haunt me during what has historically been my favorite time of year.
Last weekend I managed to get out of the house and attend one of those Lularoe Parties that I have avoided multiple times in the past. Somehow I got sucked in and spent nearly $99- on leggings that I can only wear lounging around my house. Some people, (myself included), just cannot pull off wearing leggings. Well at least they are cute.....

House cleaning and organizing for the fall season took up some of my time. I also completed my first college paper since 2010. Mark and I spent several hours last Sunday planning trips for the RV next summer. We were only successful in booking one trip, as most places are closed for the season. We do have our big RV adventure planned for late August in the Cape, (Cape Cod) and have tentative plans for Eastern NY near Saratoga, Western NY near Letchworth State Park, and I am insisting on a fall trip to the Adirondacks. 

Mark also has been presented with two Casino funded cruises. We still have our four rooms paid for from last year and now we have two more vouchers, so 2018 will indeed be the year of the TRAVEL. 

We have discussed a family cruise in June to Bermuda and doing something just Mark and I in the fall/winter. I imagine there will be several trips taken next year. 

Friday evening Mark and I joined some of my co-workers at The Fireside Inn in Baldwinsville NY. Co-worker and friend AnneMarie had won a company buffet from a local paper called table hopper.    

This was great fun to spend time with co-workers but the actual event was poorly run. Apparently the host (Table Hopper) I am assuming. Did not estimate the actual number of people attending and by the time our table got to the buffet they had run out of the main course. The Fireside hostess was rude and basically out of control when assigning tables and I have to say it was quite disappointing to anticipate having a meal and the restaurant running out of food.  I would assume that the purpose of the free office party was for exposure for the restaurant. Unfortunately it left many of us feeling unlikely to  return. 

Monday evening was spent out for another co-worker Birthday. This time it was Becky's and we went to Dominick's.

 The Birthday celebrations have become a nice tradition for us at work.

Dinner was delicious. I had the fettuccine alfredo, but everyone's mean looked yummy.

Aimee let me try a bite of her steak. I know what I will get next time. YUM!!! There was so much food. I had left overs for lunch the next day. 

We enjoyed each other's company and sang Happy Birthday to Becky. 

This Friday the 13th  my girlfriends and I went to Aimee's house for what I named the "Jason is coming" Party. 

There was lots of wine, pizza and boneless wings. NO blood or hockey masks. Great fun with some these ladies that have continued to be close friends. Never have I had as close friends from my work people as several of these ladies. 

 There was a lot of alcohol consumed.

Saturday morning I woke up feeling pretty sick. At first I thought maybe it was "hang over". I did consume a ton of wine, but after I threw up a few dozen times. I realized I was just regular sick. I had to CA my plans to go with Mark to Saratoga and spent my Saturday in bed.
Sunday was better, but the week begins again tomorrow. WAHHH! Well that is what has been going on. TTFN
