Happy Halloween! I hope you all had a lot of fun and were nice to the little kids who knocked door to door looking for free candy. I fear that Halloween just isn't the same anymore as it was for us when we were kids. I never see or hear about many kids going door to door squealing 'trick or treat!' as I used to when I was younger. Not that I can blame the parents as the world has become a scary place even when it's not Halloween.

Robert and I went to a small Halloween party at a friends' place. It was an interesting night to say the least. I dressed up as Cruella Deville. Not a likely choice, but I had to make it work-appropriate as well. Anyway, here are a few pictures of me in my costume.

Work has been stressful and there has been a lot of changes lately. It's come to the point that I hate going into work everyday because I'm never sure of what kind of drama I'm going to face that day. I'm trying to ride it out and see what happens after the New Year. So far it looks like I will be going back to school in February or as soon as possible.

Robert got a new job recently making a lot more money and within a much more professional environment. He loves it so far. The change in him is amazing. He's actually sleeping at night and seems to be happy waking up every morning. I'm so proud of him. He's worked so hard the past 3 years and has definitely earned this new job. I can only hope that I will be just as happy career wise in the near future.

Due to the timing of Robert's new job (he's currently finishing his third week), we've found out that yet again we cannot go to Canada for Christmas this year. It was a huge disappointment and I find myself struggling not to get overly emotional about it. It's not like I will never go back, I know we will, but I was so looking forward to it and I miss my home and family very much. It will be 3 years December 9th. I had also promised my family that this Christmas was their turn, and that once I had my green card I'd definitely be up there in time for Christmas. I hate breaking promises.

While I know that part of it is due to circumstances, and my family are very understanding about the whole thing, I still can't help but be upset about it. There's more that I'm not sharing, but I feel that I have a right to be upset. I had to lie to my own parents to keep the peace and I hate that I was put into that position. I'm just too timid to really let it out my frustrations and emotions like I want to sometimes. Hopefully we'll have a nice Christmas anyway. It's just around the corner.

It is my mission to to every one of my subs and wish them a Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, anda happy New Year ( please check all that apply). I could send out a mass message, but I thought this was a little more personal.
Thank you for reading my site, and enjoy the holiday season.
