Random thoughts
--I am so happy it's November: I have 4 days off this month! I'm feeling v. burned out on my job.
--I'm having a strange craving for canned chicken soup and goldfish crackers. Gross, right? But DELICIOUS as well.
--One of my work kids made a spontaneous turkey hand print this morning in celebration of November. I got all sentimental, like, "Oh, turkey hand prints! Hester will make her own turkey hand print in a couple of weeks! It'll be the first in a long line of turkey hand prints," etc. I'm such a dork.
--Has anyone ever tried the Peapod service from Stop & Shop? Is it worth the $7?
--I still haven't met any new moms in my area. I'll resort to Gymboree et al. if necessary, but I really don't want to go there. Any ideas?
--Every year I itch to go to New York in the fall (I usually go in the spring). I don't think I'll get there this fall, either. Blah.
--Wouldn't it be awesome to swim in a hot spring right now?
--I love Halloween in my neighborhood--it's such a fun holiday and there are SO many kids in the neighborhood! We had roughly 150 trick-or-treaters last night, many in big groups with parents/older kids supervising the little kids. My pet peeve: Kids not saying thank you. My favorite thing: Teens trick-or-treating alongside preschoolers.
--I'm knitting a sweater for Hester that's fluorescent yellow with fluorescent pink accents; it's v. 1985 and obnoxiously bright. I hope to post pictures soon, but in the meantime just try to imagine a sweater this hideous/beautiful! Hells yeah.

Oh I'm all about the hideous beauty of Hester's yellow and pink sweater. I'm super-psyched!
Re meeting other moms. Does your library have a 'story time?' if so, try that.
I will tell you that I met some 'good moms' at Gymboree and kept them!
