    One of the challenges I'm having a hard time with is unsubscribing from catalogs. I'm planning to move again soon and feel like I'll just have to do that all over again once I move... so I don't have much motivation to sit down and get that done :( Only one day left to motivate myself to do it before the challenge is over!

    My whole family and I went to the pumpkin patch! I am pretty sure we spent 3+ hours there. :) I'm counting that, that makes up for my half hour missed the other day!
