Re-qualifying

So, what did you do this weekend?

I've now attended 2 Halloween parties and tonight is finally Halloween. I feel like I've adequately milked this holiday this year for all that it is worth. Because October is my favorite month and I love fall, I do get into Halloween. I typically make my own Halloween costume, so here is this year's costume (H played along too) but we didn't win the costume contest. A co-worker's daughter was the cutest little bride you've ever seen and she won hands down.

Get it?!?!? I'm a cupcake and he's the baker
 On Sunday, we went to re-qualify for our concealed carry license. H thought that I wouldn't make the cut as I haven't been to the shooting range in over a year. We went to the range to practice on Saturday and I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn. I was a little nervous on Sunday but then when we went to the class (for a 15 minute refresher) I knew all the answers to the test questions. And when we shot, we were much closer to the target then H had me practicing at. We expressed our concern to the teacher, prior to my shooting, that we didn't think I'd re-qualify. After I shot, he said "I wouldn't want to break into your house!"
We shot from two distances, the line by my elbow and the line by my knees
I punched a hole through the target!!!!
So...That's what I've been up to lately.

Otherwise, I'm just still in the middle of the 2ww.
