Happy Halloween!

Boo!

did I scare you...

I know ~ not likely

what a busy week-end!

it started out with having no plans and then at noon on Saturday

took off at a sprint and did not stop

I ended up outside cleaning up the flowerbeds out back

then ran errands, got groceries

made a big batch of spaghetti sauce, stuffed manicotti

then made dinner!

we were invited to a party and I was pooped out

I felt like a zombie so the costume would have been easy

it's too bad too because I really wanted to go

just to see all the decorations as I was over on Thursday night

and it looked incredible then ~ and they were not even finished

oh well ~ I hope they got lots and lots of pictures

Sunday it was miserable ~ rainy and cold

but we bundled up anyway and headed to the cottage

to close it up

it was cold ~ see your breath inside cold

this is a picture from inside looking out

it was pouring ~ I called it slushing as it was a rain snow mix

we lit the stove and got down to business

by this time the slush had turned to full on snow

I went back outside and braved our first snowfall of the year

and you know what

I really don't like snow

everything was covered and to quote Trev

it was slippery as snot

nice image ~ right!

by the time we left it was pretty much a winter wonderland.

As we were driving home it turned to slush

then rain again but the ground is covered

I am hoping this will all melt off as it is suppose to warm up

a bit ~ hope so as I hate to see the little ones out in this

tonight.

More news ~ good news actually

Donny is home

skinny but home

his weight dropped to 107 lbs

this is a man ~ 6 ft tall

has always been slim but not skin hanging on bones slim

he has gained about 7 lbs so far

so he is on the road to recovery

and a happy boy

and that makes me a happy girl

thank you again for all the prayers

xoxox

So today I am dressed in my finery

I am headed south ~ if only in my mind

as I will have on my hula skirt

and flip flops

and a lei ~ and a hat

and funky glasses

I will get a picture ~ I promise!

Hope you have a Safe and Happy Halloween!
