November 1st and a Halloween report!

This is me and I am one of the monkeys as I way over bought Halloween candy.  WE had about sixty kids and what was I thinking.  So, I have bagged up the leftovers and am taking them to the Neighbors across the street. 

I gave Sissy a large box of Fruit snacks for the kids at Choir tomorrow and a large bag of rice crispy treats for the adults. So, she does not have to bake today!  I call that a win! I want this stuff out of the House as Husb is diabetic and has no self-control, which he readily admits.

Sissy came for dinner last night (pizza)and we worked a jig saw puzzle which Husb and Sissy finished long after I went to bed.  I did a little as I was handing out candy.

Sissy then decided to spend the night, and I did not even hear her come to bed, I was that tired.

The finished puzzle and I cannot get this picture turned.  This was only 750 pieces!

It is that time of year again, just too cold to be outside, at least for me it is.

However today we have the last warm spell of the season, and it will climb to the high sixties.

I am hoping that after I get back from my small grocery shop the Husb will help me trim the trees along the side path.  We shall see.  I also want to pull the large pavers and large rock from the boulevard path, so our lawn guy can come and level and get rid of a lot of the dirt to bring this area below grade.

I will then relay the path (below grade) and cover the earth with yard cloth until next spring.

This area will then be hydroseeded when it gets warm enough.

So, plans within plans.  I did manage to get to Home Creepo yesterday and get more ground cloth pins and laid another layer at an area on the back driveway area that kept blowing up.  We do occasionally get some high winds.

I am making a ham, bacon and cheese quiche for dinner as that is what Husb wants along with a small side salad.  This will feed us for three meals.

My goal this month, and I mean it is to stay out of the grocery store and whittle down the freezers.

Wish me luck as I have been bad.  I have done a full inventory of the upstairs freezer, but not the downstairs and that I will do tomorrow and then report.

My problem is I cannot stop buying loss leaders as groceries have become so expensive, but I am past the point of being ridiculous.  I just cannot pass up a bargain.

I think I will have to challenge Ann to do the same.  Go Ann, go! Oh, wait she is still working on the room of horrors, but is making progress, and all progress is good!

Talked with both Sluggy and Ann yesterday and Sluggy is struggling.  The surgery really took it out of her, but she is strong and will bounce back, it is just going to take time.

Both Sissy and I think she will not be ready for Company by the end of November so we will make plans for next spring, but things could change.

Now I must get to the store, deliver candy across the street, put gas in my car, and then home to vacuum the basement and make a quiche!

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

God is good.
