Good morning ya'll!

another day on beautiful planet erf. :)


Slept in after one of those nights. A little warmer this morning at almost 60. Back to my usual 'uniform' of shorts and a t-shirt, socks and crocs. It's a good thing I live in the country, lol. Neighbors are accustomed to seeing me in my comfortable attire.

that's what i'm normally wearing around here too in the warmer times of the season. it has been cooler lately that i'm able to wear longer pants and not have to bother with the sweatband.


Gonna work on garden today. Pigs did a lot for me so it won't be terrible.

:)

i gotta get outside today too even if it might be chances of rain.

That was mine and H front yard for our Halloween display. The link shows it all lit up at night.

The way I looked on Halloween night. I had a a couple good scares (little kids that would jump when I said BOO) and a few VERY awesome scares (teenagers would get 1/2way up the sidewalk, see my eyes then RUN away and 1/2way up the block). Kept getting told "I watched Y'all put it up and couldn't believe every time I passed there was something new but this is great. Keep up the work as it gets better every year!". Mostly it was just me putting it up but H did help from time to time. We took it all down in 1 day that's even with me putting everything in totes separately (skeletons in 1, spiders &webs in another, lights and other small items in another, and ALL the inflatables in 2 totes).

If any of you shop at Kroger (or their other stores, like my Fred Meyer), the checker told me that every Tuesday, only in November, will be senior discount day. Normally its just the first Tuesday of the month. Check your local Kroger owned brand to see if they are doing this.

I'll have to make hubby go with me. He's old enough for the discount and I'm not.

All you warm people!!!!

The last few days I have been talking to youngest "whaddya think? Should we move to the Bahamas? Could I manage the bug level?"

:lol: Yeah.... cold.

it's not the bugs i'd worry about as much as the hurricanes and being nearly at sea level all over the place and the lack of pretty much most of what i'd care about doing and ... i've been there and would love it if i could live about 50ft underwater in a bunch of big glass domes and grow beans all year round... :)
