Well, I get to go back under the knife again on November 19th.
You know just a long enough wait for the incision to heal up really nice so that they can slice it open again and cut some more out. Yippy..........

Had a pretty quiet Halloween this year.
I just stayed at home this year and handed out candy. We had a whooping 26 kids this year. :o
I was pretty lazy and didn't even get my decorations out this year. :(

My leave from work is over starting Thursday night and I didn't accomplish getting my Christmas lights put up either. ugh........

Book Reading......

Finally finished up book No. 31.
I just read Deathride Hitler vs Stalin The Eastern Front 1941-1945 by John Mosier.

It was a TOUGH read. I thought it was going to be a historical look at the war between the two countries. Not quite. It was basically a DRY look at how Stalin lied his way through the war. How he didn't win the war and Hitler lost. It was more how Hitler made calculated errors which allowed Russia to win. Etc Etc Etc...
Not sure how much was fact driven and how much was opinion driven.
I was really tempted to just put this one aside and forget it, but once I start a book I feel obligated to finish it.
