Good morning cherries and Happy Halloween! Hope y'all each get to have some time today and hang out with us cherries during Flasher Laura's Epic Halloween Party!

My headache FINALLY went away yesterday afternoon. Had to break down and take my migraine meds as I felt like that was what it was going to turn into. Work picked up yesterday afternoon a bit, but nothing I can't handle. A couple of emails came in last night which I already took care of this morning.

Our humidity is still nasty (worse than yesterday) so again, no walk this morning and instead yoga. Got the towels in the washer and DH had to leave a little early to get some lab work done. He had a f/up appt on Monday to check his A1C and it came down significantly from April (7.3 vs 6.7). I'd prefer it to be much lower but he's trying.

Besides work, will check out Flasher's Halloween's Party. Later, pass out candy if we get T-or-T's. It's hit/miss around here. Sometimes we run out of candy and other times we only see 1 or 2 kiddos. We shall see what happens tonight.

Hope y'all have a great day!

Glad you finally rid yourself of that headache!

We are supposed to flirt with 80 degrees today!  The normal high for this time of year is 58!  It is super windy though, and may rain later, but that's OK!  Our neighborhood holds Trick or Treat on the Sunday afternoon before/closest to Halloween, so we're done with that here.

I made cupcakes this morning!  I'll decorate them in a bit.  Every Halloween I make spider cupcakes for my family.  I frost them in chocolate icing, dip them into chocolate sprinkles.  I use 2 Sno-Caps for eyes, and I cut strips of licorice for legs and push then into the cake.  They are the most adorable, hairy little spiders! 

Other than being here on the board, I've got nothing else going on!

Have a great day ALL!

Good Morning, Brandy!  
Have a fun Halloween!  Do you get to see your nephews all dressed up??

Halloween is always a fun time around here!!  The minion and I baked cupcakes yesterday afternoon when she came with her mum to pick up her brother.  Of coarse,  she wanted to break the eggs into it!!  Thankfully we put them in a separate dish to avoid egg shell mishap, which of coarse there was.  I get to frost them today.  Look forward to seeing the grandkids all dressed up and hopefully get a photo with them!  We have an unpredictable amount of kids too!  

Laundry is on the agenda.  And start some packing for my trip to Seattle.
Predicted high of 50F.  Yesterday, we didn’t even reach that.  It was chilly!


Happy Halloween, all!  Looking forward to Flasher’s party.

Happy Halloween!

Supposed to be really warm here today, I already walked to the store to buy more candy - wearing shorts! Last Halloween I have photos of me wearing a winter jacket. 

I plan to walk with a friend and  enjoy Flasher's party today and then tonight I expect hundreds of trick or treaters. The whole block hangs out on their front stoops drinking wine as they come by. Will be extra nice this year since we won't be freezing.

Good morning.  Nothing going on here but Halloween tonight.  And my job is the easy old grandma one of setting inside the screened in front porch and handing out candy while DD and her hubby take the kids trick or treating.   Halloween is one of my two least fav holidays, the other being 4th of July.   Cranky old woman here. Fuss, muss, bother, noise, mess, etc.   oh and misbehavior by all ages in the name of the holiday. 

oh well  off to hunt for cherries while they’ve still double today.  Have a totally awesome Thursday

My SIL and brother will be T-or-T'ing in their own neighborhood this year but I sure hope my SIL remembers to take pics!

Glad your headache is FINALLY gone, Brandy!

Cherries, I'm going to pick up Jazz and Shadow (AKA my twins lol) from the vet. They DID very WELL!  
I went back to sleep for a while lol I'm enjoying my off days to the fullest!  
I'm checking out Flasher's party and catching up on here while in the truck lol. I'm gonna have another coffee when I get home. Trying to beat the rain, as our windshield wipers are no bueno at the moment. Lol oops! It's ALWAYS something right?!
Have an awesome day, Cherries!

I had errands to do this morning, one of which was return a sweater to Boscovs.  When I got there, the computer system was down.  Not just in my store, but every Boscov store.  Hacked?  Anyway, I could not purchase or return the sweater.  The main reason I went out this morning.  So frustrating.  I waited in the store looking around and it never came back while I was there. 

Getting ready for Trick or Treaters tonight!

Good afternoon. I went to the DMV to get my license renewed and also tried to get my Real ID. Even though I am pretty sure I had all the correct documents (which security confirmed), once I got to the person who would process my request, denied my birth certificate and marriage license (even though both had a raised seal. It was very frustrating, and I won't go into details why. I just renewed my license and my photo looks like it could be posted on the FBI's most wanted wall.

I'm not planning to fly anywhere but I wanted to have it just in case. I had hoped to get some scrapping done but I'm in a foul mood now.

That's BS! I'm sorry Chris!

Don’t you just despise bureaucratic stupidity??!! As for the picture when I first got my Florida license my picture literally looked like a mug shot! And that was way back when we wrote checks and had to show our licenses! I hope your mood improves so you can scrap!

Hey Cherries! Quick pop in to say hi. Gotta get ready to go to town. Need to wash blankets, etc and get groceries. Then I have to get things cleaned. Two refrigerators, 3 bathrooms… But the really good news is that we will start sleeping IN THE HOUSE tomorrow night!!!!! And we will have fun with nephew Riley and his fiancée and their daughters Emily who’s about 2 and Ryleigh who’s just a few months old! 

Anyway, must run. Hopefully I can play a few games for Flasher’s Halloween party!

Happy Halloween Cherries!

Today is kind of a regular day for us. We've been doing Halloween things all month LOL! (Sleepy Hallow, the haunted house, spooky movies) We don't really get any trick or treaters which is sad because I love to see the costumes. DH took today and tomorrow off. We went to the laundromat and did errands this morning. DD had school all day in person and is now in class until 8. She wants to watch the finale of Agatha All Along with us later.  I've been copy editing and partying with Flasher and all of you. Some really great challenges!!! I'm hopeful that now that baseball season is actually finally over I will have more time to scrap LOL!
