This too shall pass

After a hellacious week, things got better and better.

Salsa picked my spirits up as usual. And then I got some of the best news…I got a job offer in California!!!! I signed that contract as soon as I could! San Diego/Escondido here I come!!!

My friend Kristy had an extra ticket for the Renaissance Festival. So I strapped into my purple corset and gypsy skirt and joined her and her family. It was such a sight to see all the different people dressed up and in all sorts of characters from mythological creatures to fairies and wizards. I took a picture with a pegged leg pirate too!! And the sprite fairies put a big smile on my face too!!

I took Mom to a comedy show which I managed to sleep through most of it! Haha. Guess he wasn’t as funny as one thought. And my dear Marcy gave birth to her angel boy Seth Richard. Marcy and Chris are amazing parents and are extremely blessed. The following day was Mr. Chuck’s funeral which was very moving. My friend Leo sang a couple songs in the closing part of the service. With death there is life…how true this is.

Corey and Jen had a Halloween party at their place. It was so cute to see the kids all dressed up and eager to scare us. The party usual of piñatas were in full swing as the kids went at them for candy! Afterwards I headed off to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show with the shadow cast of The Beautiful Creatures. They did a fantastic job. I was tempted to go see them the following weekend and dress in my black corset and fishnets! But nahhhh. Haunted houses were calling that weekend.

The rain came to Houston with a vengeance which shut down salsa the last week of the month for me. That saddened me cause I knew that it was my last month with Salsaeddy for a bit. But I’ll have a salsa party before I leave so that hopefully I can see a bunch of my friends.

Halloween was an awesome holiday. I went out with Amber and her sister’s family and JC to see a couple haunted houses. I love those places. Its so funny to see people jumping and screaming! So not scary for me.

November is right around the corner when I will soon jet off to the Bahamas and then California!!!
