Here I am talking about Halloween and you’re probably sick of it or over it already. Am I right? If your American you’re probably already thinking of Thanksgiving. Uh huh. Well I’m just asking. LOL
I was a total party pooper this Halloween. Usually we decorate the outside of our house and even our front yard. We’ve got a Ghost, a scary skeleton in a reaper gown that shakes and moans when something moves in front of it. Cobweb making stuff galore. A scarecrow (for autumn) with bales of hay (4) and all kind of other Halloween related decorations that we put up. We even bought two pumpkins to carve and put out too.
But did I decorate? Nope. My husband had to work Halloween evening and since I haven’t been feeling all that well I decided that I wasn’t into entertaining the hundreds of kids that usually come by. We’re also a little low on funds too, so when I thought about how much all that candy costs I nixed the whole plan.
Next year we’ll do a super Halloween event. Usually we dress up and really get into it. I think we do a good job so that’s why we end up with so many kids dropping by. Next year.
So what did you do for Halloween? Did you decorate your home and entertain the kiddies? Did you go to a party? or maybe you just stayed in like I ended up doing?
I hid at the gym ’til it was late enough to go home. One of my neighbours said we got about 50 kids.
Stayed home, gave candy to about 30 kids and then just wished they’d stop ringing my bell after a while and go away. It was all over by about 9 pm. Good! (Man, I’m getting really crochety…)
