Checking the list twice

Dylan went with me to the office this morning....I had to work the phones for 2 hours so Dylan went with me....it is getting more and more difficult to take Dylan to the office with me....he is so mobile and into everything...it means getting nothing done and hoping the phone doesn't ring....I am moving my office to the first floor here in the next week or so....being upstairs has proven to be very difficult with my asthma..all of our files are downstairs so it is a constant up and down...I will miss the privacy but the convenience will be great...we are also going to put a small tv with a tape combo in my office for Dylan...so when he has to come to the office I will have a fighting chance at getting stuff done.....we have also been doing laundry today and getting the house ready for my dad's visit over Halloween....tomorrow morning we head out to Portland to spend time with family....so we have been checking our list and making sure that we have everything...we are traveling pretty light for the trip....Dylan included.....looking forward to time with family and Dylan getting to play with his cousin Avery.....I am also looking forward to Halloween ....I love Holiday's all Holiday's and we are pretty well decorated, cleaned, and cupboards full looking forward to more family coming in to visit on Halloween....for Halloween we are also having some old neighbors and friends over for Halloween for Chili and treats in the evening......during the day I have a couple of friends coming over to make caramel and chocolate apples....drink a little mulled spice wine....and just take in the Holiday in a relaxed fashion........with that I need to get another load of laundry done and the dogs ready to go to the dog sitter'
