It’s perfect weather today for all the Trick or Treaters – sunny, warm and no wind.

In fact it was so nice that I went out and worked in the yard for most of the morning. I had a lot of things that I wanted to get done but, of course, I didn’t get at them all. I managed to get enough done that if we don’t get another good day for a week or so I will be able to pick up where I left off. I’ll sleep well tonight with all the fresh air and exercise.

I have all my pieces ready for our sewing lesson with Deloise tomorrow. I had a hard time getting the pattern traced – I guess my kindergarten skills haven’t been used for too long. I’m hoping that tracing is the hardest part; if not I may have to give up on the technique or else buy myself an ink jet printer so I can just print the patterns off.

We won’t have anyone at the door tonight. Even if there were kids in the neighbourhood we’ll have our lights out and be hiding in the basement. After eleven years and maybe two kids in all that time we don’t even try anymore. I purchased a box of candy just in case, but mostly for Pat and I to enjoy. And like they said on Facebook, “No matter how many mini chocolate bars you eat your earrings will still fit”!
