I do have to admit it came out way better than I thought it would. It&#8217;s amazing what you can do with some fabric, duct tape, and a pool noodle.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone else amazed that it&#8217;s November? Since we already had our Thanksgiving I&#8217;m ready to move right on to Christmas. Guess I better take down my Halloween decorations first. Skulls and poinsettias don&#8217;t really scream Christmas cheer. Maybe I could put little Santa hats on the skulls, then they&#8217;d be all festive and stuff. I wouldn&#8217;t have to change my decorations that much. I don&#8217;t think the kids would really appreciate my merging of the holidays.<\/p>\n<p>J-Man is still going to the First Lego League meetings. It&#8217;s gone from once a week to 3 nights a week and I think it&#8217;s going to involve weekends soon. They are gearing up for the big competition later this month. I think it&#8217;s a lot more than we all anticipated but it will be over soon. I don&#8217;t think J-Man will be ready to join anything else for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m still not used to the time change from the weekend. I&#8217;m waking up at my usual time but problem is that usual time is now an hour earlier than it was last week. I&#8217;m exhausted and ready for bed an hour earlier too. Maybe I&#8217;ll get used to it just in time for us to spring ahead. Anyone else still have a clock or two that hasn&#8217;t been changed yet? The clock in my truck is still showing an hour ahead and even though I know it, it still startles me when I get in and see the time. For a second I&#8217;m like &#8220;Crap! I&#8217;m late! Oh, wait, stupid clock is wrong.&#8221; But I still don&#8217;t fix it because it&#8217;s a pain to fix.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it for me today.\u00a0Don&#8217;t forget to stop on over and say hi to <a href=\"http:\/\/stacysrandomthoughts.com\/2013\/11\/thankfulness-twin-of-katniss-little-dude-antics-persistent-mouse-rtt-rebel\/\" target=\"_blank\">Stacy<\/a>.
