Yeah, I’m not really “feeling it” at “that place”. Schools are closed, phones are down & server is down. Looks like I will be filing this afternoon, yuk – my weakness. Will try to turn it into something positive by getting distracted by these short, dark fingernails, black rings and spider ring (& my cute Hello Kitty bracelet). I also wore a black sweatshirt that has black cats framed in electric blue in a jack-o-lantern patch and a creepy spider pin that looks like it’s moving because it’s made of lots of “diamonds”.

I channeled my inner kid yesterday and made a snow witch. She’s totally ugly, and her fat snowy butt sits on our outside table. Her eyes, nose, crooked teeth and buttons are made of rocks since the fireplace was already going. I made the top of her head cone shaped so that her witch’s had doesn’t blow off. I wanted to use creepy, ugly sticks for her hands but they’re buried in snow. Not leaving her alone with my authentic black 100 year old broom; she might wake and take it out for a ride (a la “Frosty the Snowman”). Besides, I’m the only one who rides it! I emailed a pic to Channel 12 News – if it shows up on line I’ll let you know!

Tee hee Joan, sounds like a be-witching hal’weeny snow sculpture! Mmm Peanut Butter popcorn would be a great lunch time treat today, thanks Dee! Ok, am enjoyin a bit more downtime until we START this afternoon so will head out to the patio to see if I can spot my tricks for treats kit Tux who is probably zonked out on the lounge chair by now…

So no sooner did I post earlier when internet went down, then power. Got to go home, yay! That was an adventure, though, detours galore. My big black truck makes for a great target for snowball-toting kids, who have nothing better to do since they’re not in school. I was surprised no one tried to snowball me – maybe they like the challenge of hitting small cars.

Birds have discovered the small feeder suction-cupped to our kitchen window – Leela and Comet are enjoying it too! Squirrels can’t get to it either. Might have to take it down, though, as the bears aren’t hibernating yet.

Joan, what you don’t want bear tongue on your windows? Lol, sorry that was the first thought I had when you mentioned having to take down the bird feeder from the window 🙂

Linda, just found a mixture that is supposed to work the best and sent it to my friend.

Well back to trying to sleep more than a half hour, just wish it would stop I can deal with the pain but its dang annoying….ta ta for now.

Does the bar have something for the worst meowmy of the year nominee? Stumpie would like something vile & disgusting for me, maybe mildly poisonous. He HATES me. He just caught the biggest moth I have ever seen (thought it was a bat at first), and being the meowmy that I am, I took the moth away & set it free in the neighbors’ garden. He growls at me. And gives me the stink eye.

LOL @ Sky!……. Abby gets mad when I ‘save’ her lizzards that she catches!…..

Oooh Sky, bad meowmy, lol! Comet does that too. He’s so protective of his prizes.

We had a grand total of about 8 kids. We have a few neighbors with young children who were so cute! Don’t think I’ll mention to hubby the 3 extra bags of unopened candy. 🙂 Might come in handy over the holidays. I used to keep a decorative box next to the bed on his side; the halloween candy was in there for years and he never knew – literally under his nose! I told him about it after we put the addition on and we got real nightstands.

I remember mentioning on another thread that I don’t like horror stuff too much, but we’re watching a Hitchcock marathon on antenna tv – have to admit I’m enjoying it. I like seeing home decor on old shows like that and he sure was a great storyteller.

Happy Halloween!
