Something About Nothing............ #14

[schumigirl]

And it is finally Halloween……..

So glad we had the event last night as weather today is not so good. Slept late and that‘s when I do love the time change for the extra hour’s sleep……nothing like a lazy Sunday snuggle……..

Bacon is absolutely on the menu today and maybe Eggs Benedict too…..no plans to go out anywhere at all today. Doing a joint of beef for dinner tonight, won‘t need lunch if I do Eggs Benedict along with bacon.

Enjoyed the first 2 original Halloween movies last night, although the second is quite poor in comparison.

Going to enjoy some FaceTime chats today and some calls with family and friends for a catch up…….

Have a lovely Sunday…….

Yay, the last day of October is a Halloween Sunday. And it is starting as usual, tea cup in my hand, with large screen all to myself.

I swear i heard little one go to bed around 3am this morning. Guess she’s going to have that I’m not moving until mid afternoon. Yeah, I’m going to carve that pumpkin, in the morning, not having to wait until after work to do it late in the afternoon. Eh, I’ll scoop the inners out for her, as that always takes some of the time up.

But as it’s a Sunday, it’s still that back to routine readiness, as alarm set, and trash out the door. But this Sunday, candy for the kids. Woot!

No time change for me yet. So yay, a good morning to Schumi. Yep, smelled that bacon all the way over here. Glad your Halloween event was so lovely for all to enjoy. And yep, HHN going or not, good night to watch those kind movies. Kinda like this:


Hahaha!

But tonight our home will have the porch light on until around 8 pm or so, and yep, we hand out candy. I so enjoy seeing the neighbor kids’ costumes. And so,

Happy Halloween all! However you plan on rolling today, have fun & stay safe.

We are waiting for it to dry out just a bit to get the haunt ready for the trick r treaters. the family will stop by for football games, pumpkin slaying, dinner & general mayhem

PS my two older DS’s team made it into the dance! nice group of kids, young team, few seniors; they were a real long-shot as so unseasoned & in a tough division. Nice to see persistence and hard work pay off. Sad we were en-route home & missed it.




It’s not HHN if you do’t get startled in the scare zones Do so love being pounced upon Hehe Will say, even tho an average year, appreciate it happening. that last week was not what I‘d consider ‘busy’ btw. However, we didn’t do Friday or Saturday either, which I assume had big bump in crowds.

Can’t remember if I’ve shared this one but, it keeps cracking me up

Congrats to DS team.....they do look a good bunch of guys!! And love the pictures......love getting a good scare at HHN!!

Extra bonus points for having Nick Castle in a picture today.....the original and genuinely terrifying Michael Myers........

Sounds like a fun day ahead for you......enjoy.....and welcome home!!

 

[Lynne G]

Yay, Keisha is not a drowned homie. We had homes flooded down at the shore. Us, some very loud thundering downpours around 11pm last night. Yay for mid week HHN fun. Yep, some good scares in those scare zones. Hehe, little one knew where the scare actor was, as she spied feet just before he jumped out to scare Patty’s DIL that was right behind us.

Ack both kids are indeed up, but neither is in moment mode. Guess it is me out there with the . Eeek!

 

[schumigirl]

The days you don`t do much go so slow.......

Did catch up with several family and friends though, and baked a few things including some sourdough bread for tomorrow. Made stock to make chicken noodle soup which will be just lovely for another wet and windy day that`s forecast for tomorrow. Getting fed up with the wind now.

Turned out lovely this afternoon, but by around 4.30 when it`s starting to get dark now, the clouds rolled in and it`s barely stopped raining since. Winds are up to 40mph tonight......yep, such an exciting day I can yap about weather!!

A lazy do almost nothing day is nice now and again.

Won`t be late in bed tonight as we are an hour behind now......glad we had a sleep in this morning.

And tomorrow is November.......can`t quite believe October disappeared so fast!

That weather sounds frightful for sure. We have had a near perfect fall day today. I can't believe how fast October went by either. Thanksgiving will be here before we know it.

I managed to watch "Christine" and "The Fog" last night before nearly falling asleep on the sofa.

I hope everyone has a safe evening with the trick or treaters running around soon.

Sounds lovely Todd, an ideal Halloween.

Hope it was the Original Fog with Jamie Lee?? Haven`t watched Christine in about 30 years! We watched Duel and Race with the Devil recently, I keep mentioning the race with the devil one to folks and no one seems to have heard of it....scared me as a kid!!!

Yes, I`d love a cold crisp autumn day instead of this wet, windy and getting cold stuff we`re getting now.......

Enjoy the rest of your day.....

Hey,any of you youse remember Scotlass? Well she remembers youse but sadly couldnae remember her password so is now VicksMc!!!!

 

[Lynne G]

Welcome back, Scotlass! I think I remember you. Hope all is well with you and family. You got married a few years ago, yes?

 

[Lynne G]

Do you believe for the two hours our pumpkins sat outside carved, something ate most of my design and I salvaged little one’s. Did not touch older one’s. So mine was a spooky character, now changed to I think looks like a witch over a cauldron. Sigh. 7 kids so far. Cute costumes, littlest so far, was a flamingo. Sweet little girl that was so shy, won’t say a thing to me. Thought I should be nice, and wearing one of Robo’s masks. She is gem to make such cute ones for all to use.

 

[Lynne G]

Spooky enough night? Wind making it feel a bit cool.


Happy Halloween!

Happy and spooky Halloween I hope everyone had a great day!!!

I just turned out our outside light. We didn't get many kiddos this year. At least we have 2 young teenage/adult men to eat what is left lol.

Busy weekend, reorganized and clean out our big freezer, deep cleaned/detailed the trucks, bought groceries, purchased a new crock pot for all the moose meat I will need to cook, and finally looked at flights/hotels and vehicle rentals. I am going to come up with a loose itinerary for the week. Starting to get all the wheels in action.

Cool, crisp day here. No snow, but my head tells me we will be seeing it here soon. Woke up with a killer headache, that just won't go away. I'm pulling out the big gun medication tonight when I head to bed. I hope it works. I really don't need the week to start off with a killer headache/migraine.

Well, I should fold the last load of laundry, then head to bed.

I'll leave a nightlight on for those who can't sleep and our early risers across the pond.

Thanks Pumpkin for handling tonight’s night light!

Hope you had a lovely weekend too, and glad you`ve started those trip plans, getting everything together is always fun!

Hope the headache has gone and you got a good sleep (my answer to all ails) yes, headaches are miserable......have a great week.




November 1st!!

Wind is still around 40mph and will be for most of the morning. I`m out this morning and potential snow for Bonfire Night this weekend.......not that I`m a fan of Bonfire night.....we are the Grinch with fireworks.

Tomorrow looks better though.......a little lighter this morning, only for a week or so then it goes back to being darker again, always glad of a night light!

Boring breakfast this morning, chicken noodle soup for lunch and pork fillet with mustard and honey glaze for dinner

Book group this morning too, last one till after Christmas. Everyone is always so busy in December, we leave it till January now, quite enjoyed this book, so hope the next one is as good.

Happy Monday ​

 

[Lynne G]

Good Morning Schumi. Nice to have book group this morning, after enjoying the book selection this time.

Oh no, Pumpkin, hope the headache is gone when you wake up this morning.

I guess fittingly, we got 13 kids, including 7 within a half hour, then the other 6 as we were ready to turn off the light. But we waited, as we saw them on the other side of the street, and we figured it would take about 15 minutes to get around to our side of the street. Think it was about that time we heard them coming. Compared to the earlier group, this group was quite noisy. But we didn’t mind, they were older kids happily getting candy. And so, there is leftover. But that won’t last too long. All will be enjoying our gotten Halloween candy. As hehe:



. Hehe, my kids didn’t even have to trick or treat.

And so, with the month of voting, and two federal holidays, it’s a great month.

Finally, even with the new month, it’s a Monday, and with the cloud cover, and no time change yet, it’s very dark out. Sunrise is not for another hour. And that means I’m up way before the sun, as start of a routine week day routine. But thinking need to put my car in the shop for routine service on Friday, so I’m thinking of making it a longer weekend. Short week this week, with holiday one next week, yay!

Tea, why yes I am sipping it. Wishing all the homies a Marvelous Monday.

Hey all! Hope you all had a enjoyable haunt. Nearly 300 little monsters stopped by yesterday. Up to our ears in decorations that need stowed today but, couldn’t resist the last funnies of Halloween…



See you next year, handsome!
