Happy Halloween

If you enjoy this holiday on the last day of October, I hope you have a good celebration. I have to tell you, it isn't my favorite holiday. In fact, since our sons were out of grade school, at least, I have disliked the day. I didn't like coming up with costume ideas for the boys. The night was often cold and I really wasn't wild about taking them around the neighborhood, trick or treating. After they left home, we often turned out all the lights and spent the evening in the basement so we wouldn't have to buy and hand out candy. I didn't mind giving it away. But it was bad for my waistline when I ate everything we didn't give away.

And I especially didn't like having to wear a costume on the few occasions when my job required me to be dressed up.

But, in case you do like this day, I share with you the decorations a few of our neighbors put out for the event.

Yes, You Can

You really can find a bedspread online that is what you want and that is not a comforter. It did come with pillow shams and extra pillows we really didn't need. But we are happy. And, after placing the order last Saturday, it was delivered on Thursday. Isn't it pretty?

Happy Halloween, everyone. I really haven't enjoyed this holiday since becoming a teenager. I didn't really enjoy putting together costumes for our boys and I hated it when I had to wear a costume at work. But lots of adults are into the day. Our RV resort, Canyon Vistas, is decorated for the occasion and had a dance night. Needless to say, we didn't go, but we did check out the resort decorations after dark.

During a quick stop at Fry's today, we saw two employees decked out for the day.
