Yay I love Halloween....my DH and I dressed up for work...Jim and Pam from the office for the Dunder Mifflin Meredith Palmer Memorial Celebrity Rabies pro-am fun run.

Here at work we don't do anything, but I brought in unfortunate cookies with bad fortunes.

I'm taking off early to go decorate outside and then we are having people over for dinner and drinks while we hand out candy.

I am passing out candy, but bought less this year because I don't want to be passing it out all night. Though I may go buy more today becausw I'm worried I don't have enough...

DH mentioned wanting to do something tonight,  but he doesn't want to leave the house. He forgot it was Halloween and is now disappointed that kids will be knocking every 3 seconds.

Candy is Starburst. Kid costume was any of them where I got to wear a poofy dress. Adult costume was probably my homemade Captain America that I wore at Disney World. Movie...hmm...not sure I have one.

with black cats in bow ties next to a quarter moon.   We don't get T or T'ers where I live.  Too rural.

No costume for me this year -nor past few years come to think of it.  Used to be a big deal for us.  Decorate outside the house.  Each time less kids.  I am passing out candy but worried about the doorbell and people coming/going since our pup is an a fear period and sounds vicious at anyone approaching the house/car.

Worse then having diabetes on Halloween though?  Prepping for my colonoscopy/endoscopy tomorrow am- eating what I can now and then fasting.  Even the 'approved' list of drinks I can't have *juice*- so I have broth and gatorade zero (white)...and will be spending the evening at the toilet while kids come to the door and the dog barks her head off.  FUN FUN!

No dressing up for me, but I am planning to go get a haircut today, so who knows what they will do to me LOL.  We are not passing out candy this year.  All of the kids who live in our neighborhood are 7th grade and up, so we don't get many trick or treaters.  My boys want to go to a haunted house down in the country club, and DH will be at an AA meeting.

Favorite candy as a kid was the miniature Butterfingers.  Favorite candy now is none...can't deal with sugar.

Favorite costume as a kid was Laura Ingalls from Little House.  My grandma made the dress, bonnet and pinafore. Favorite costume as an adult was a disgruntled pregnant woman.  I was 4 days overdue with OBS, and DH had just gotten custody of SD.  People would ask me what I was, so I'd tell them that I was a disgruntled prego...I got a lot of candy that year LMAO.

Favorite Halloween movie is It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.

Nightmare Before Christmas is our favorite halloween movie. Three years ago I was a very pregnant Sally and DH was Jack Skelington with a beer gut. 

have costumes for my two kitties although they do not like it.  I keep it on for about 5 minutes.  My stb 12 yr old Bombay cat has a sinus infection so he will NOT be in the mood!

HAPPY HALLOWEEENNNN!!  And Happy New Year to some!

Favorite movie:  Halloween LOL

Tonight the pooch is wearing his spider costume and DH and I will dress up as ghouls and SS16 will do some trick or treating.  I am pretty much making him go.  He cannot say no to me. 

We will be in a friends neighborhood where everyone sits on their front decorated lawns handing out candie and adult bevvies.

No dressing up, not handing out candy - our 12 year old pup had a growth removed & teeth cleaned today under anesthesia, and I brought him home an hour ago. Poor pup is dopey & disoriented, I'm not gonna leave his side for anything. He's melting my heart, laying here with glazed eyes, tongue out, so I'm all about lights out & babying the pup tonight. I did enjoy seeing costumes at the store earlier though.

It always tends to be "different", with these SDs. We take turns and alternate years. Last year was ToxicTroll's, where she was supposed to buy Munchkin a costume, and instead of buying her a costume, she bought her fart spray online and a few prank toys. BM waited until the day before to tell Munchkin that she was "broke", so Munchkin cried a bunch of tears, told me her BM is "so selfish and only thinks of herself", I bit my tongue, and she used the costume from the year before that I had purchased for her (spent nearly 75$!) She dried her tears, got some clothes she could shred and went as a she-werewolf and had a good time, whie her mother and tweedle dum lingered behind on their own.

This year, Munchkin bought her OWN costume, I bought her some accessories, and newly arrived Feral Eldest was supposed to "do her makeup". Well, I badgered DH for a photo of her in her costume with her makeup, as I left before her arrival for school drop-off. Pouty-faced unhappy camper!!!! Apparently she was unhappy with it and wiped her face clean. So now, we are going to take munchkin to a nice neighborhood near my parents that is FAMOUS for blockbuster trickortreating, where its one big party for kids and adults. There are blocks of homes decorated like crazy, a pumpkin patch that is over the top with over 100 individually carved pumkins, and all the candy a kid could wish for., plus its safe, because the streets are blocked from cars driving around.

Then we get to drop kiddo off at BM's!!!! And celebrate the evening by snoring in front of the tv, or enjoying adult beverages in front of the fire pit...

My favorite costume was one year I dressed like dorothy from wizard of ozz. White thigh-stockings, a pale blue skirt that I cut the bottom off and glued into those straps, a white blouse. I dyed my hair dark auburn, and carried a basket of chocolate instead of a brown dog. I bought red shoes from goodwill and glued sequins on them. 

My second facorite costume was "Ghost Bride". I bought a lacy wedding dress with a tight-on-top bodice, and cut the skirt basically in half to make a mini dress. I bought a big gauzy fabric - also goodwill (a curtain I think), to put over and around myself (like a shroud). I had dried some roses and used them as my bouget. I dyed my hair jet black this time an it was pretty long. Pale white makup and powder and black eye shadow for contouring around the eyes and cheeks. dark red lipstick..black nail polish and white stockings with black shoes. I rocked it.
