Ten Minutes.

I haven't much time today to say the things I'd like to say. Yesterday I decided I'd organize my dresser and closet so currently much of my wardrobe is waiting for me to say yay or nay and re-fold or re-hang or just put in that bag we've always got accumulating to go away.

The wind here in Minnesota {and in other parts of the country, I hear} is pretty fierce and it's howling and the window in our family room is bending and flexing with each big gust.

It's good sleeping and lounging weather. Stay in with a good book or show, a cup of cocoa and some snacks.

Tonight we're having Jack O' Lantern pizza and we're carving pumpkins. H is so excited and when J told me he might be working late tonight last night I pulled the card. You know what I'm talking about. There will be no working late tonight. I am looking forward to having a night at home together in the warmth of the house while it's icky outside.

The other night J and I went to the coffee shop and we talked and we plotted and we made our plans because somedays I feel as though the day starts and ends with things still needing to be talked about and plans finalized. We're on the same page now about Thanksgiving and E's upcoming birthday and Christmas and it feels so good. And we are excited.

If you didn't win the most recent giveaway, you still have a chance to take advantage of a great discount that {sweeter than me designs} is offering my readers. Order anything from her shop by October 31 and receive a 15% discount. Simply write Simplicity In The Suburbs in the message to seller box. Let me know if you have any problems or questions. I'm off to place my own gift order now.

Also, Shabby Apple, one of my advertisers, is doing a promotion beginning tomorrow for readers. Sitewide free shipping and 10% off any purchases made between tomorrow and November 20, 2010. Use code: fall10off.

If you've never shopped at Shabby Apple or looked at their site, you are missing out. They have beautiful, ruffly, fun, dresses for women and little girls and I may even own one of their fun swimsuits. There's also a dress {on sale!} that I am eyeing for some upcoming holiday parties. So check it out.

And ten minutes, the title, is because that's the amount of time I told myself I could spend blogging today. So happy Wednesday, friends!
