I may have ripped into a bag of Cheetos I bought for the trick or treaters.

Only 10 so far, it is pouring. One with a clear Micky Poncho.

It is suppose to stop raining when our trick or treat hours come to an end.

We've both done allergy shots, mine were for 5 years...hubby about two. Our allergies didn't completely go away. Although it's been awhile since then. I could look into it, but I think hubby is over being a pet parent.

Awe that is too bad since you love doggies so much.

I'm out, the little angels shout start begging any minute now as it's a 3pm start time here. Have a great fright night

Our trick or treating hours are from 5-8 and we are getting rain. Poor kids, hope it stops by then.

That's really early. Kids don't ever come around here until it's dark, well after 5:30 anyway. I'd prefer they came earlier, but whatever.

Hubby, the dog, and I have a system. I buy the candy for the treaters. Hubby gives it out to the kids, and I hang out upstairs and play on the computer or watch tv. Hubby leaves outer glass door open, so the kids can see that we're home, and giving out candy. Dog sits in his favorite "lookout" spot, in the middle of our inside stairs (leading down to our first floor) and barks when the kids come near the front door. Hubby hears dog bark, and gets up from the sofa in the livingroom and gives out the candy. (We shut off our porch light at 8:00, and that's it.)

May be a blessing in disguise. It's a clear day outside here today, and we're thinking that maybe even more kids than usual will come by and because it's a weekend night, they may be out later.

Happy Halloween.

Indiana had some counties that didn't observe DST, but I think they do now.

I'm pretty sure Arizona doesn't. My cousin lives there, and it's always hard to call because I never know the time difference.

Sympathy like. I'm enjoying peace and quiet for about the next hour and then the begging for candy begins. I hope you have some fun tonight, you're only young once!

Fun...hmm, like going to bed early and curling up in front of a movie all alone? That sounds like wonderful fun.

If you are referring to a party, I don't do parties. They're not my idea of fun.

My mom came in my room to help me put up some pictures and to reorganize my Disney dolls. We have the weirdest conversations

Me: The way you've arranged those dolls, Prince Phillip looks like a play-a.
Mom: *rearranges* Okay, now Prince Phillip is no longer a play-a
Me: Mmm, maybe you should move Barbie as Princess Bride? That way Phillip doesn't look like he's marrying Barbie but keeping Aurora as a concubine.

Mom: In what way do Princesses go with Orioles bobbleheads?
Me: They're the princes. Also, I couldn't figure out where else to put them.

Me: When I was a kid, I always wanted to know why the Barbie dolls never had underwear.
Mom: Well, you know women didn't always wear underwear.
Me: But I still wondered about my more modern Barbies. Like, we wear underwear, why didn't they?
Mom:...you are very strange.

Oh, he'll do it. How could he not pay homage to the greatest film in cinematic history?

I definitely want photographic proof of @Goofyernmost doing this! I'd be willing to kick in funds so he can purchase the WiFi.

in other news, this happened

And you're just telling us about this now? They've been around since 2009 and have 7 albums!

Very impressive pyrotechnics for a backyard concert, by the way.

 

[catmom46]

Oh heck no! I didn't wear leg warmers even in the 80s

I guess I shouldn't talk cuz I did.

 

[catmom46]

1am Sunday. seeing I'm going to be sleeping, my clocks get changed before I go to bed. That should mess with the boys as they're planning on staying up and watching a movie with my dh. Something with a big yuck factor so I'm changing the clocks and going to bed at my regular time

Big yuck factor, eh? What movie is that?

My best friend and her 3 year old daughter came over to visit me a couple of years out of high school. I got my old barbies out for the daughter to play with, and she was very concerned that the barbies did not wear panties. You are not alone. She also thought they needed "Sunday shoes".

Long day and I am exhausted, but we had a great time at the craft fair. DD made a wish jar necklace, we made cards and gift labels.

Spent way too much money, but we got tons of cool stuff, from glitter paper to nail art pens to beads so I can make Golden Snitch Earrings.

I wish our kids could still dress up for school.

I didn't know that was not allowed in some schools. Our kids can dress up until middle school. That makes sense to me, we couldn't dress up after elementary. It sure was fun for us, in the black ages!

Just saw this post again and laughed even harder than the first time I read it.

Me too! After sixty, everyone should wear clothes in the shower!

I really like yukons too. Still a dollop of sour cream or butter lands on mine when baked. I also have started to put them in stews and some soups, adds a nice flavor to both.

I'm into cabbage (angle hair) soup with a little bacon, onion and broccoli and tomato and carrots. Makes a very yummy soup, I put in beans, any kind. It's so flavorful , if I want to cut down on calories, I eat the broth, and have veggies with more tomato's added for dinner. I never feel deprived. Oh, Mrs Dash, the onion and herb adds flavor as well as paprika. That's my dinner tonight. Hubby is having meatloaf and Yukon potato's, with glazed carrots. He likes, and needs meat, especially beef for iron. Me, I have always had too much iron. Go figure!
