Getting ready for Halloween...

Hello all,

I love this cooler weather we are having. Went to the pharmacy (R.Aid) the other day and they had their fall stuff 50% off so I found me a little scarecrow with dangling feet and also a 'Happy Harvest' pumpkin to sit on my fireplace mantel. I put out the Halloween stuff but I haven't bought any pumpkins yet. I'm not going to get the hay bales this year for the porch they are too much trouble. Trying to decide if I want to fix something to sit in one of my rocking chairs...maybe Mike Myers or Leather face. I have a mask for both. I asked hubby if they had coveralls at work and what color, he said blue...reckon you can borrow a pair until after Halloween? Ha. May have to check a thrift store to see if I can find something. We fixed one like Jason from Friday the 13th way back in Kansas.

Poor Hubby broke the arm off his glasses last weekend so he went in Tuesday for an eye exam and new pair...I taped the arm back on so he could wear them and he got a lot of nerd comments at work...ha. The new glasses are supposed to take about 2 weeks but they ordered him another frame for the pair he had and they came in yesterday. We picked them up then went to eat at Applebee's... I was not impressed, I tried the turkey sandwich with fried green tomato and I don't know if they toasted the bread with butter or oil but it was greasy. We also ordered french onion soup and they were supposed to bring it first, but after they brought out the food we had to remind them we had soup also... Seems they were better when we lived in Texas.

Roll Tide,
Sheila

  1. It's a little early in the season to find fall stuff for 50% off. I went to the Dollar General store the other day and they already had Christmas items!
    Ironically, my glasses broke last week and I taped them back together.

Hi, I was at Rite Aid a while ago and started to get some decoration I'm sure Millie and Jet would have enjoyed it if I had. lol I found a purse i liked at Goody's I may just go back and get it since I don't have a closet full.

  6. Love your Halloween theme. I only ate at Applebee's once and that was in TX.visiting my son when he was a normal son. It was very good. We have one here but we don't go out to eat any more. I cook and cook and cook, I think you got it, I cook.
