I feel like a Halloween fail

Haven't done anything remotely Halloween related today.  I could actually get a costume together, but at 3:56 in the afternoon, it seems pointless, especially when we have no real plans to do anything.  *sigh*  Been a blah weekend, and now, it's a blah Halloween.  Boo!  (said out of deference to ghosts)  (at least I did that!). 

Anyone else having a ho-hum kind of Halloween?

  • Yup! We haven't done anything this weekend except work and hangout with family a little. We have been watching football all afternoon and will continue to do so with the lights off tonight so we don't get trick or treaters haha maybe next year when M is older we might do something fun.

  • We aren't doing anything halloween-ish either. Henry is wearing a cute sleeper with a pumpkin on his bum, though... And hopefully we will roast pumpkin seeds later.

  • Me. We're not doing anything this year. Plus, after cutting out most sugar from my diet for PCOS, I couldn't bear the thought of passing out tons of candy tonight. So I got little bags of pretzels.

    Yup. I'm THAT neighbor.

    DH says we gonna get TPed.

    DD #1 scored a bag of pretzels ToTing last night.  It was the first thing she wanted out of her bucket when we got home.  Some weird kid will appreciate you! lol

  • I've been wearing The Mumu all day and working on a paper. Once I re-finish my first (okay, fine, finish my fourth) draft of the stupid paper, I'm going to go bake bread for a practicum tomorrow. Then I'm going to play "what's in the pantry that we can make into dinner?" before going back to finalize the paper.

     

    But I made spaghetti in beet sauce last night, so my kitchen looked like it was covered in blood for about 30 minutes. Other than that, I'm totally not halloween-y.

    But I've already decided that Bugbear is going to be a sock monkey next year.

  • i just woke up from a nap.  N has decided he hates his costume, hates candy, hates halloween ,and doesn't want to trick or treat.

    DH officiated a zombie wedding today though, so i guess he got halloweeny enough for all of us?

  • One of his friends decided they wanted to elope today.  They called him on Friday and asked if he'd be available.  The groom jokingly mentioned they might be in costume, and when DH showed up at the park they'd picked, they were both dressed as zombies!

    N and I had driven along since it's a really nice park and we could play while they did the wedding, i just wish i'd had my camera on me.

  • Joes, I wish you'd had your camera on you too.

    I suppose it's a memory you'll have to just keep for yourself...

  • We were Halloween fails today.  DS did wear his monster longies and a pumpkin shirt when we went to dinner and the grocery store.  Yesterday we went to a church trunk-or-treating and festival.  DS was a soccer player so he just wore a cute Adidas track suit.  I'm pretty sure most people thought he wasn't dressed up at all.

  • We dressed DS up and my parents stopped by to see him in costume but that's about it. All the fun Halloween stuff I wanted to take him to was either Friday night which was just too much after work or yesterday afternoon during naptime. Next year...

  • I didn't do anything today either other than get mad at the water station for stealing my dollar.  I had to go to the other side to get my jugs filled.  I'm going back tomorrow to fill up my other 8 jugs so I don't have to go for at least a week and a half.  DS has no idea what today is and it's probably better because I wouldn't want to fight with him over why he can't have the candy.
