My brain has just not been up to speed in the last few weeks. Personally, I think it's still on vacation at Disney World. Halloween is just around the corner and do I have ANY Halloween stuff up--NO. I don't know if I even want to put any stuff out. Come to think of it, it's probably the beautiful weather we've been having. Cool mornings and nice warm afternoons don't make me feel in the right autumnal mood.
Okay, list for today:
--climb in the teeny-tiny crawl space of an attic and find the Halloween stuff. I need to pull out the pumpkins to see if one will work with my kiddo's costume, but I think they will be too large. She's going to have to carry her pumpkin for candy around her neck/fake hands. Her costume is almost ready--it just needs some more blood on it to make it look good and creepy. And yes, I requested hubster to place the headless corpse out of direct eyesight of my desk.
--whack my Don Juan rose bush back to a reasonable size. Wrong time of year to cut back roses, but it's in attack mode and everyone who walks by gets strafed.
--schedule spaying for the Magster. Yep, there will NOT be sheepdog puppies in our future.
--visit with my bro and his wife. They leave on Wednesday and I haven't had a chance to talk to them. Hm, maybe dinner??
--I haven't written anything on my short story and I need to get my butt into gear on that since I'll have to start posting it next week
--I figured out what was wrong with DEMON and with a little deleting and rewriting, I should be able to make it work. And that's another blog post.
Write On!
Have fun getting ready for Halloween. Good for you, figuring out what you need to do to fix Demon! I'm fixing Dead People, too.
ReplyDeleteThe kidlet must have THE best costumes around!
ReplyDeleteI'd copy you and make a list of all the stuff I need to do, but it would just depress me, lol. Good luck!
Even though I KNOW what I need to do to fix DEMON, I just don't have the motivation! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe kidlet's costumes have been pretty wicked. Last year, Todd made his own costume--Gumby. Yes, Gumby ended up almost 7 feet tall. :-)
ReplyDeleteNow, I need to make cookies, salsa, and finish writing my silly short story for my blog.
I am so glad my Maggie was spayed before she came to me. No decision to make on my part.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to finish THE BOOK THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED
I cut back stuff in my beds that probably shouldn't have been cut back when I did. You know what? I don't care! If they die, fine. Give me an excuse to redesign. :)
Cyndie--This last spring I ripped out yarrow and some other purply stuff--and over stripped the bed-- it's barren. I did plant some African daisies, but they didn't survive the heat. My job is to make that bed work next spring.
