Stacy had a job today in north Mesa.  Hip Hip Hooray!  Dropped the boys off at school and then Paul used the car to take Joshua to school.  Worked on stripping wallpaper. I finished the entryway and started the hallway.  The hallway paper is coming of much easier than that in the entry.

 This afternoon James and I had appointments to get our eyes checked at Chandler Eyecare, thanks to Sheri.  Afterwards we went to Olive Garden for lunch.  I had pumpkin cheesecake for dessert.  It was yummy!

This evening we went to the Galveston Third ward Trunk-or-Treat with Sheri and Stacy.  It was fun to see some of our Del Rio 2nd ward friends.  We visited with the Coffey's, the Wanlass's, Dave & Laura, and Terry & Cathi, the Dowdle's, and the Lueck's.  After trunk or treat we went to Darrel & Trina's.

Started removing wallpaper this morning but stopped to take the boys to school and then Sheri to work at the mall.  I kept the car because I was going to do a couple of errands but then I ended up staying home instead and working on wallpaper.

The entryway came off in small pieces.

  James went to Quizno's after pouring concrete at the place where Christina's reception is being held on Saturday.  He got me my favorite turkey flatbread sandwich.  I went to the mall at 1pm to pick Sheri up and had to wait in the parking lot about 15 or 20 minutes.  She took me home and then she went on to work at Chandler Eyecare.  I am afraid that working two jobs is going to wear her out. 

This evening we went down to Sheri's.  James and I played Five Crowns with Max and Evan until Kim came over to make cake pops and then Evan was all about Kim.  We watched an episode of The Mentalist and then left.  The reports of the damage done by Hurricane Sandy are pretty damaging.  Many people are without power.  The shelves of the grocery stores are empty and FEMA doesn't seem to be helping much.
