Something About Nothing ... #12

[keishashadow]

We did two Halloween parties this weekend. House is full of candy and we aren't going out tonight. In fact, my wife is taking down all the indoor Halloween stuff as I'm typing this. All the kids and teens at the tournaments get a sword when they get first place. They love it and the adult divisions all beg for them too but no dice. Lol
We've got 4 swords now that I hide so my littlest monster won't get a hold of them. They are sharp!

Haha he needs one for the thumb! was wondering if the blades had an honed edge - eek. You are well-prepared for zombie apocalypse

Hey, PC didn't BagO's post say the phone caller was looking for knives? Swords may do. LOL I'd be hiding them too. Great that he's had 4 times being first place.

Cool and cold windy day, so I assume our trick or treat kids will be bundled up some. We're stocked and ready (even though both kids have sampled last night).

Sun is been making everything bright. Not a cloud in the sky. So time to make afternoon tea. Later y'all.

Remake was a huge disappointment. Love the original, so creepy, even moreso the movie's curse!

OMG that is so creepy! I can't believe so many of them died. A cursed movie for sure!

Raise your chainsaws high


Can barely contain my bad self!

Spent am jumping thru the DVC hoops. Would u believe that for next year's October trip, even after adding on booking extra 'dummy' days the end of September I still got the very last standard studio @ BWV for the 1st week in October?!? Crazy, cannot believe how popular that time of year has become. I was able to piece together via a split trip the week of 4th of July next year last week without issue. Hope once people start moving things around 7 months out, I can limit it to just one resort since taking GD.

Waiting for it to crack 50 degrees before I head out with my ghouls to finish setting up the yard display.
Keep running out of batteries for the animatronics lol, another run to $ store is in order; forgot to order bulk.

IDK, I enjoy a long, juicy informative trip report. At the risk of being a mite harsh, it's those self-aggrandizing ones that go into excruciating details of the mundane that make my eyes roll back in me head. That's when you vote with your feet!

DH enjoys the Mission Impossible series. I nod along. Tried the JacK reacher books, couldn't. Get into them. I do adore Jason Bourne, but not the same. Believe the 1st movie was filmed in our burg btw.

Haha no it's all on us. DH's family has 'rules' for holidays. Don't laugh too hard. The hostess does ALL the cooking, as I was informed when I brought a baked good the first time I attended a dinner. They don't do pot-lucks, far too déclassé. Admit to laughing when I was then informed that they also do all the cleanup. Not one to poke @ other's family traditions but...

Very true re some trip reports.......it's a fine line....... I know exactly what you mean!

Any pics of your yard decs this year......yours were so cool last year.........I'm not a fan of Jack Reacher......hard to like Tom C in anything nowadays........love Bourne.......but the latest comeback one was a disappointment.......we gave up before halfway.......shame.

I remember reading about the Poltergeist curse years ago and it freaked me out more than the movie I think.......very strange.

Yes, some family traditions are odd.....I know what you mean though.........all our family and friends welcome whatever you may bring and we do the same........



Sat watching WD just now...........

 

[macraven]

I really liked last nights show

 

[macraven]

Now that schumi has watched twd, hope she shares what she thought of it

I liked the back stories of it and the pig part

Can guess how that will unveil in future episodes

 

[schumigirl]

 

[schumigirl]

Thought it was a bit slow an episode, but thought the pigs was a nice touch.......think next weeks might have a change of pace again.........


Busy day today, waxing appointment first........always an ouch for that!! Then lunch out with a friend.......always fun......

Happy Tuesday......can`t believe it`s November already.........

 

[Lynne G]

Le Sigh. As I started my drive, a short distance later, my car told me to be careful, the road may be icy. Just at freezing early this morning. Had to scrape the car windows. Next week will remedy me getting up before the sunrise. Hello time change. Then I will match our across the pond homies.

There's a yellow sky on the horizon. I assume we'll have a sunny day. Hopefully warmer than the 38 we're sporting now.

Enjoy this Tuesday!

Can't believe it's the beginning of November either. I love this month, my boy was born, and there's not one, but two holidays.

Waxing is always not a fun chore Schumi. Hope you have or had a nice lunch with your friend.
Me? Time to brew the tea.

Morning all! Happy November! Hopefully I will get a little time today to pack away Halloween decor & put out the autumn decor. My munchkins brought home way too much candy...I may have to help them with it

Getting chilly here again...I miss that warm day last week so much! Happy Tuesday all!

 

[macraven]

Well not chilly here today
The high will only be in the mid 70's today or was it 78?

Yesterday set a record of 86
I could live with that

Looks like I will need to pack the shorts away this coming weekend

Time to put away all the Halloween decorations for those that decorated

Me, just have to get rid of the candy that was not given out last night

So many of the kids after they said
Trick or treat told me that mama said they were allowed only one piece of candy

After the umpteenth kid said that, I scooped a handful of candy into their bags/ pumpkins

None were from my neighborhood but 5 of them
Those that came from other parts of town will never have the moms know which house dumped lots of candy in their bags
Lol

It looked like a caravan in my neighborhood of all the cars that lined up on the streets to drop the darlings off yesterday

 

[Mrs bluer101]

Buckeev very sorry to hear about your loss. I understand what you are going through.

PC very happy about 1st place! Very proud

We are trying to plan a trip in the beginning of December but DH is taking his sweet time. Lol I told him he needs to get his butt moving and book already.

 

[Lynne G]

Okay Bluer, Mrs. Bluer told ya to get your butt moving.....

Thank you! The phone caller can use them! He only gets one sword per competition. He does Gi and no Gi so e have a collection of gold medals too. We were thinking about going to worlds next weekend in Lakeland but...well that close to Orlando I would have to make a side trip to USO and my wallet can't handle that right now! Lol

So sad...Our sweet Darbi passed away Thursday and it has crushed us. Nearly 14 yrs of 24/7 companionship. For most of those years, she has laid by my feet while I do artwork at the PC, or laid outside at the entrance of the shop while we printed. Can't believe how this has floored us..(read...me). Needed to type it out 'cuz I know many of y'all will understand.

Yep, that is tough. Our thoughts are with you. I lost both my Rotts about 5 years ago. It took about a year before I would stop looking for them and wondering why they weren't trying to be lap dogs. My male was 170lbs and my female was 130lbs. I miss them dearly, especially my big boy, but with three kids now I've resisted getting another Rott.

 

[macraven]

That was a hoot Lynne
Showing Bluer's butt that is.......

 

[macraven]

Anyone here had leftover candy for dessert tonight ?


I bought the good stuff so we are set for a week

 

[Lynne G]

Yep, Mac, but actually as an appetizer. We too only buy candy we all enjoy. Plus, I made chocolate covered pretzels, so we have them to snack on later tonight. It is that time of year! LOL
