It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year...

I bought THE most beautiful dress today for a wedding I have later this month.  It is simply astounding; I cannot wait to wear it!  I feel like a little kid who just wants to wear it around the house because I love it so much.  Not only is it from one of my favourite stores, La Creme (not sure how to do accents on this laptop!), but it's worth over 500 dollars and I got it on sale for 99 (my dad would be proud)!  October 26th just needs to get here so I can see one of my favourite people get married while I wear my new favourite dress!

In addition to my new ball gown, it's also my most FAVOURITE weekend of the entire year!  Oktoberfesttttttttttttt!  Best ever.  I usually go tonight for opening festivities with Walter, but for the first time in a DECADE, I am going to a different venue instead.  No, it's not because I've outgrown Queensmount; it's because my usual crew of people couldn't come until tomorrow.  Next year, we'll go back to normal.  Also, Thanksgiving!!  I head up to the cottage Sunday for what promises to be simply gorgeous weather surrounded by people I adore.  AND it's a long weekend!  Like I could ask for anything more.
 
I hope everyone has an AMAZING AMAZING weekend!  I know I will!!
Love you all to pieces,
M

Almost Healthy

Good news, friends.  My cough is on its way out!  It's only taken three weeks,  but I'm finally getting there.  I'm hoping I'll be able to run by the end of the week.  All the weight I lost from my squats, planking and every other day runs will be shed yet again, and then some.

Oktoberfest this weekend!  I am so so so beyond pumped.  Favourite night of the year FOR SURE!  And I just recruited three more of my favourite people to go.  Then, off to the cottage for Thanksgiving with the fam jam and friends.  I can't wait.

Super short entry, but the cough starting to dwindle is a huge victory!  And Oktoberfest...  well, that's my xmas.   And long weekends are just heaven sent.

Much love,
M

The Countdown Begins Today

Well, my friends, my christmas is just TWO WEEKS AWAY.  Oktoberfest...  the best time of the whole year!  And whilst I am breaking my tradition of opening night at Queensmount with Walter (who has signed my body four times), I am happy to try out a new venue with some of my favourite people (one of them being a special birthday boy!).  One of my slo pitch buddies hooked me up with a code to get free tickets to Bingemans on the 12th...  NO CATCH!  So, naturally, I ordered 10.  4 are spoken for, so I'm looking for 6 more people who'd like to hang out, get slightly intoxicated, dance to polka and then be extremely intoxicated by 9pm!  You know who you are.  Long weekend.  Oktoberfest.  Thanksgiving weekend.  My company.

In other news, I'm almost fully healthy again which means that I can (thank god) start running again.  Not only did I miss it, but as I got dressed after my shower today, I felt somewhat like a sausage.  The binging while ill, I'm sure, had something to do with that.  

In the meantime, please enjoy a couple of shots from last year's festivities.  As I do a countdown towards the best two weeks of the year, I'm sure I will find and/or post more.

Love, love and then some more,
Megs

Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm extremely blessed to have spent it with so much of my family and many of our friends.  I love you.

Love and tofurkey!
