Good Morning, All! Hope everyone is having a great day out there
We made it through Halloween with minimum candy left over - mostly Kit Kats, Hershey bars, Reeses, and things with caramel - Milky Way, Rolo, Twix. Daughter's friend no longer works at the local nursing home, and the one I reached on the phone declined, so I will take most of what is left to work for a locker stash - my co-workers know that they can help themselves if it's a stressful day. I'd had sale coupons that led me to pick up some stuff for Halloween at the store like Juice boxes, small bags of chips, brownies, etc... that we rarely use; the juice boxes didn't last long; and the brownies, Pop Tarts, and Nutrigrain bars went fast as well, so I will keep my eyes open for sales on those next year. The leftover chips will be going down to Louisiana with oldest grandson and his crew from the electric co-op when they head back down there on Friday or Saturday this week. He's asked me to stock up salty things for them so I will be hitting Aldi sometime this week to pick up jerky, etc...
The only masks I saw on anyone Trick or Treating were the ones that came with costumes. The boys were Deadpool and a Ninja - both had masks that covered their faces; the dog had a ghost t-shirt; he he didn't mask lol!. Hubby put on a skeleton face mask and I put on my lady vampire mask (first time I've 'worn' lipstick in years ) - but we did it because we were cold.
It's supposed to get down in to the mid/low 20's tonight, so I'm going to get the last couple of plants pulled in to the basement stairwell. As soon as Hubby can get all the ladybugs out of the dropped ceiling and I can get the plant shelves put back together, I'll drag them all the way down to the utility room - I'm off until the 4th, so I should have time to get them all settled in. Of course, if we end up going up to the orchard to get apples for applesauce it may take a bit longer than I expect.... (Everything takes longer than I expect it to )
And I'm going to include getting this posted - dog out, dog in, breakfast for one boy, dog out, dog in, breakfast for second boy, fill coffee cup, more cereal in boy #1's bowl, dog out, boy #2 want's different cereal for 2nd bowl, dog in, yell down stairs to tell Hubby not to start the washer 'cause I don't have the boys' clothes down there yet, dog out, boy #1 has grown since I got out the winter clothes, go find a different size, hand off boy #1's outfit to boy #2 but he wants red instead of blue.... I need more coffee
Take care all; have a great week!
