Being sick is the pits (and I certainly hope nothing hits me until AFTER my vacation--heck, I don't want anything to hit me at all!). <br /><br />I enjoyed the article and can't wait to work with you on my book cover. I feel like I'm in good hands. :)<br /><br />As for Halloween... We'll be driving home from our vacation, hoping to make it to the HS football game before kickoff (game will decide conference champs and we're playing our rivals!). So, no trick-or-treating for us. Not that we get many visitors. When you live on a cul-de-sac off another cul-de-sac, it kind of limits the amount of kids.
