Sunday high

Carve the pumpkin. Check.
Make cupcakes. Check.
Find a costume from stuff made at home for party. Check.
Finish first draft of WIP before NaNoWriMo. Check.

YES!

I just finished sending out my first draft of my latest WIP to my CPs. You know that high of finishing a story. I'm giddy, nervous, hyper, and hungry. Really hungry.

We had fun at a friends' Halloween party yesterday. I found a bag of old costume pieces in the attic. I could've gone as a lazy pirate. Costume parts from when my husband was a Pastafarian one year. (100 geek points if you know what that is!) I instead took parts from a barbarian costume and went as an urban barbarian. Meaning I wore my normal clothes with skins over it.

My son has another Halloween party at preschool this Tuesday, and then there's trick-or-treating on Wednesday. A busy start to the week and then I'm diving right into NaNoWriMo. And no, I haven't done any more planning for it. Maybe I'll get a chance to do so one evening before Thursday.

My cupcakes didn't turn out too badly. It's harder to sculpt fondant than I thought. It was a good lesson learned. For fancy cupcakes, buy them from the store!
