My sister came to visit me this past weekend and brought my niece with her. It was really good to see the two of them. The last time I saw them was my grandfather's funeral back in June. Kaci, my niece, is in the process of teething, so it wasn't a very restful night of sleep while she was here. As you can see in the picture, she's totally happy to be sitting with me.


So far I have no plans for Halloween...which is really depressing. I love Halloween, it's my favorite holiday. But I've been so freaking busy that I really haven't had time to meet people. All of my friends here have kids, so I really don't expect them to go out and have a good time. My brother invited me to go hang out with his friends, but there's something ironic about that and I don't know if I can bring myself to do that. We'll see if anything comes along.
