• Pretty, neutral Halloween decor.  I've always loved Harlow James' soothing, relaxed decorating style
• I think I've shared TheresaGromski's Instagram feed before.  Here's a look at her gorgeous home on Rock My Style
• Well I thought this was interesting.  Natural air odor eliminators for both the fridge and for the house.  I've ordered both and will let you know how we get on
• A beautiful duet with Andrea Bocellli and his son Matteo.  The look on Andrea's face at :22 seconds in…

It is Friday, right?  With not working I don't have anything to anchor my days and I'm forever stopping and asking myself what day it actually is.  I wish I could just relax and enjoy the time off but it's hard not knowing if it will be for a month, two months, longer…  

I have spent the last two weeks since my last official day working looking for and applying for jobs online.  I have had a few recruiters reach out (one guy super persistently for a job in Arizona) and I had a great informal interview for a position that wouldn't start until January which would be ideal.  I could take a few months off and then start work in the new year.  The person I spoke with liked me and thought I would be perfect for the job but she isn't the hiring manager.  She did refer me though so let's hope it goes somewhere.  

Next week I am actually heading down to LA for most of the week.  I have a friend, gosh I've known her since the 7th grade, who is undergoing chemo for breast cancer and I am going to take her to her appointment and then stay with her for a few days afterwards until she feels okay to be on her own.  Her family and most of her friends are in Northern California so we are taking turns helping her out.   Her name is Barbara if you would be so kind as to throw some healing, healthy energy her way.  

Oh!  I'm also doing a garage sale with my mother in law on Saturday.  I've been super organized for the last year or so and have been setting aside a "garage sale" pile and have been pricing and tagging the items.  So I just need to show up early at her house on Saturday and set up.  Any leftovers are going to the a local charity shop in her town.  

I hope you have a splendid weekend!
