announcing!

it happened again...

just slap me and call me Linus...
not one trick or treater!
I am so done with hanging out here...
next year...
I am going to park my hiney on the square and hand out candy...
I don't care if its kids, adults or squirrels!
its either that or move to another street...
and unless I win the lottery...
that ain't happening...

by the way...
Happy November...
bring on the turkeys!

Happy Halloween!

we are still a little more green than we usually are this time of the year...

the yellow maples are just starting to turn...

looks more like mid September than the end of October...

not a lot going on around here...
I think we are in the last days of harvest and hubby should be returning to a more normal schedule sometime later this week...

a few of the trees have dropped their leaves, but not many...

we are not watering anymore...
which is a good thing...
we are getting spots of rain here and there...
enough to keep the green going...

I am sick...
sore throat, ear aches and all the snot that goes with that...
was doing much better, then all of once, yesterday morning...
I got to feeling really bad...
so healing up...
taking my cold meds...
and not doing a whole lot...
:)
love this weather...
cold, hot, cold, hot...
we need to mow again this weekend...
hopefully DH will be around to watch it all happen...
LOL
have a spooky night!

where do the days go?

they just seem to zip right by me anymore...
but I did find some fun images online...
and thought you might like to see them, too...

check out the prices on these wonderful old Halloween decorations...

I thought they were fun...

and get your spook on with these...

and last...
but not least...
I had to find some furry halloweeners...

someone up and glittered them, though...
that's scary to me!

both guys were off yesterday...
someone forgot to renew his driver's license on his birthday (the 3rd)...
(CRAIG)
and needed a lift to the DMV in Paris...
he had to take the written test and he passed...
so he is legal again...
I stayed home...
(under the weather)
and they did the Kroger shopping and brought home lunch...
(for them)
for me...
mine will last another meal or two...

we are much cooler here...
the leaves are starting to turn, but many are falling off green...
a week from today and we will be in...
NOVEMBER!
how can that be?
panic...
"the holidays are coming"
deep breaths...
just take deep breaths...
:)

News flash...

thought I would share this with you...
its from a newspaper from around here...
from 1929...

and you thought you had a bad week...
phissshhhh...

I have been sick off and on...
I think its a tummy flu or something...
but I am on the mend...

DH and Craig are working all the time...
I am bored most of the time...

started off the week by exploding things in the washer...
Monday, one of the dog toys...
Tuesday, one of the kitchen chair cushions...
did you know that floof stuff can almost fill a washer?

you should have seen me ripping through my list of things to do...
and then BAM!
down time...
but to do it twice in a row?
geez, Louise...
so I have given up laundry....
:)

Wednesday, I shampooed the living room...
did it 3 times!
twice with soap...
the 3rd was the rinse...
(you should have seen that dirty water!)
oh, it was bad...
HOW?

I keep telling myself...
next week will be better!

ok, now...
ask me how many pumpkins do I have...
go on...

NONE!
I haven't had the chance to get to the great pumpkin patch to get any!
I am so ashamed!
BUT, why go now?
there's only 10 days to go!
they are just going to rot anyway...
so might as well just put that pumpkin money in the Christmas fund...
shhhhh...
its not time for that yet...

my world is so wacky right now...
looking forward to having my husband back...
and for things to quiet down...
:)
have a great weekend...
