Your will to speak clearly exposed too much

2013 was a pretty great year overall.  There were some trying moments but damn, I will remember 2013 fondly.  Here's a laundry list of all the great stuff that happened this year.  I am doing this for me so I don't care if you think it's boring.  Sorry about that.  But here it is so you can share my joys from this year.

• Had another wonderful year with my kids (who are too smart for their own good) and with my most excellent husband.  I plan to continue being excellent to each other for years to come. 
• I got promoted
• I got my water III license
• I received a Distinguished Service Award from a professional water organization
• I planned and assisted with hosting a district conference for the AWWA and then was nominated to be the 2nd vice chair for the district. 
• Was nominated and became Chairwoman of the Upper Cuyahoga River Scenic River Advisory Committee
• Went on an awesome mommy escape trip to Portland with my bestie Ann.
• Started running
• Ran three 5 ks
• Went to the Columbus Zoo with the kids
• Won the annual Euchre tournament at work
• Got a grant award at work for watershed improvements
• lost some weight and got in the best shape I've ever been in pretty much ever
• found lots of good music
• ate lots of good food 

There are lots of other awesome things I'm sure that happened this year but I can't remember now.  Please don't be offended if you are part of them and I forgot.  Just post them in the comments!  

Here's looking to a great 2014. 

2011 Haunted House List

Calm down, I know you've been waiting for this all year...

Friday Sept 30th: 
Hinckley CornStalker's Maze.  (I bought a groupon for this so the first two people to tell me they are coming this night can get tickets for $8)
Hauntville, Elyria.  This one has an online coupon that I haven't investigated yet. 

Total cost for sept 30th (without discounts) is $35.00

Friday Oct 7th: *****This is a Pittsburg travel date******
Castle Blood.  This one is cool, if you buy the more expensive package you get a hotdog, beverage and tshirt! 
Demon House (formerly massacre on the hill). 

Total cost for both: $32 for regular, $50 for VIP at both. 

Friday Oct 14th: ******This is a Pittsburg travel date********
The Scarehouse. If we buy our tix ahead of time we go straight to the express line without paying VIP pricing...
100 Acres Manor.  This one has all sorts of pricing options, might be beneficial to see how long the line is and pay the extra 9 bucks to not wait in it...

price for both, general admission: $34, $43 for VIP

Friday Oct 21: 
Factory of Terror, Canton
Stalker Corn Maze, Bolivar.  Mike told me this one was open again this year but I can't find a website or any info on it, so it's tentative.  Looking for a replacement for this one just in case. 

Friday Oct 28th:
Options......Either we go to Columbus and hit up House of Nightmares and Terror Park, neither of which seem to be active websites...so there is that... or we can do these ones;
Forsaken (Mentor)
Barber Haunt

price for both, general admission: $35, $45 for VIP. 

There it is, folks.  I'm super pumped.  The dates are flexible except for the Barberhaunt doesn't open until Oct 7th so we wouldn't be able to move it to the first date.  Let me know when you are coming!  Invite your friends!  The more the merrier!
