Good morning all and Happy Halloween week.
umpkin:
Wiped out, I think a movie marathon sounds like fun. Now that our kids are grown I like staying up later but I hate waking up late. Feels like the day is gone for me. Have fun and enjoy the respite weekend. Hope easy child lets you into her hurt.
Marge, glad spring returned. I'm sure you are looking forward to the warmer temps. Wish we had eternal spring and autumn. It would be perfect for me.
LDM, I love your neighborhood idea of having candy give away for any takers. Our neighborhood is pretty isolated so the halloween party is held at the community room. No trick or treaters last year.
The new trainer should be a big help. Way To Go! Don't let anything stop you now.
Adrianne, sounds like you have a full day. Hope the rain isn't too bad.
Good luck costume hunting.
KJS, you need to take care of yourself. Lack of sleep is the worst thing for your body. I quit working nights(years ago) It worked into my schedule with difficult child well but I never had enough sleep. It was awful.
I am getting excited about the holidays coming up. easy child will be home for a weekend in early Nov. so we will have Thanksgiving with him. Due to our parents age and stress while traveling I will do Thanksgiving dinner at mom's house and include in laws. My 2 sisters and brother will all be there. It's been a long time since we were all together. It will be crowded with husband, difficult child and my 2 dogs but a lot of fun. I am pulling the recipes to take along. Today I'm trying an apple and pear tart that looks easy and yummy.
Tomorrow we are attending our first Hindu holiday. It is called the Festival of Lights. It's similar to a Hindu Christmas in it's celebration. I guess there is gift giving, lots of food and celebration. I did a little research so I wasn't too ignorant of another cultures high holidays. The hostess is quite cook from what I hear and look forward to eating some good Indian food.
difficult child is going to Va. for Halloween. It's his first drive alone. I think he is nervous but he will be adequately prepared. He has his costume all set. This is his favorite holiday. He gets to dress up and be the super hero he always wanted to be.
I hope he has a good time. I will be happy for a reprieve.
difficult child has an interview with vocational rehab on Tuesday. I sure hope they start quickly and not take forever to get him going in the program.
It's looking over cast and possibly rainy but even that's ok this time of year. I'll make vegetable soup and stay in tonight to watch movies.
Have a good day everyone.
