Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

[jvls1942]

good PM, I did work on the roof.. bu t not the house roof Dave,, the dog coop roof.. I have one side ready for plywood and aluminum wrap.. tomorrow I should get the other side all ready and both sides plywooded.. then I just have to frame a little trim around the door.. I think I will insulate at least the ceiling.. I have some insulation around here somewhere.. I found a roll of 15# felt and a whole 50 foot roll of aluminum wrap.. I put a call into Darwin to bring me my brake.. He borrowed it for a couple of days,,,,,3 years ago....really !!! time sure flies..

Annie brought me "Chinese" for lunch.. (my request).. I am going to heat up the leftovers for supper..

No T or T here tonight.. I think we had prolly 10 or so in the last 30 years.. I would have to give them P & J sandwiches.. DD#2 was here today and said that the mini candy bars we have are over two years old.. Shame on me for not eating them up sooner, eh?

we got 2 kids, we had a power outage last night, the light up pumpkins and ghosts were on a timer and just came on.

oh well at least we didn't run out, have a good evening everyone.

WE have not had a trick or treater in 20 years of living here. probably because you can not see the house from the road. It;s just a fire number and a mailbox next to a drive going into some spooky woods.

We played pin the face pieces on the pumpkin to design our jack o lantern this year it was fun.




and I gave my 2 year old a silver marker and an egg to draw on, then put a hole in to let out the white and yolk, then set it on one of those LED pumpkin lights. We are thinking of thanksgiving designs for eggs now.





We are so square!

Happy Hallowed Eve, all! We don't get many, if any, trick or treaters around here either. Unless they come on an ATV. Otherwise, they take one look at the driveway & must say forget it.

This is the very first year I didn't bother buying any candy either. Can't believe I didn't get inundated.

Well, I got caught up reading, but CRS has promptly kicked in. Must be the lack of sleep. DH got home late last night from band practice, I couldn't sleep for crap then had to get up early. Then mom & I spent the day shopping. Think I'm heading to bed now. Sweet dreams, all!

Hey Cind. At least Isis didn't have this big of a litter, hey? Yikes! That ain't right.

Yes MXM I had my swimming this evening after work. For the next 6 weeks on Wed. evenings I will be one tired chika! That lady made me work! It is all good though, I am not as bad of a swimmer as I thought I was. I need to learn how to swim with my face looking down into the water, not trying to see where I am going..... plus learning to breathe without filling your mouth and nose with water (sort of defeats the purpose). I think I am going to be sore tomorrow...... now it would be nice if I could swim laps someplace after I get a handle on this swimming thing........

Dog-wise, I would stay away from any terrier breeds. The size you are talking about are the ones bread to kill small critters..... I have had Fonzie out with the ducks and he is just fine with them, but I would never trust him to be left alone with them.

I see it is after 10.... time to kick out the BF so I can go to bed!

Night all!

Hi All!

DrH... Didn't get MY computer going.... I'm running an OLD (2003) IBM ThinkPad No Windows! The OS is Ubuntu (easy Linux) I think DH got it a year or so ago for like $50 And of course.... none of my stuff is on it!

At least it will tide me over until I can get a new one.... someday.

amber... cute cartoon!

Jim... Glad your brother is safe!

MxM...Glad you had a nice trip!

JJ.... Cute Pumpkin lol.... Love the idea of that egg! Great work for a 2 yr old!

CC.... couldn't get that link to work. Isn't your new kitty cute?

Amy... cute kids!

No trick or treaters here either, There's about 8 houses in a clump here but not worth coming from town for.
Got nothin' done today.... I was lucky to make supper and take care of the birds. Bad hip day, even put the walker to use! LOL came to the realization that even though this house has a nice wide hall.... it ain't big enough for 2 walkers!

Well, must sleep... Night All!

Cind, that little kitty with the white mustache is sure cute!

I think I need better soap.... I still smelled like a pool this morning. Irritated my shoulder swimming.... I really hate soft tissue injuries in joints.... they take FOREVER to heal.

Amy, love the pics of your kids!

The scared chicken pic was great too!

I have to say there was a reduction in the number of kids out for TorT. I had almost nothing left last year, this year I had less candy and still ended up with a lot left. Off to work it went! They all enjoy Atomic fireballs and Smarties and gum.....

Off to the grind again.... I have Saturday off though..... whatever will I do!
