How is it that I've made it all day without blogging? It's almost like going through caffeine withdrawal... we have been on a mission all day from the moment we woke up... had to get showered and dressed to run to the store to pick up last minute accessories for the Halloween party at the clubhouse... went to said party and had a good time... returned to the house on a sugar buzz and made the kids take a nap... (love the sugar crash!)... talked to my sister during said nap time... 3 1/2 hours later, get them up and dressed and hang up with my sister... friendly neighbor drops off dinner... Yum! Eat dinner and reapply make-up to Cinderella and Cat in the Hat... drive to friends' block party in another neighborhood and realize I am the only adult in costume... at least I wasn't in my full regalia; only black dress, fishnets, boots, and cape... no hat or broom but I did bring my cauldron... had a great time at said block party and went back to friends' house... listened to a "song" by one friend who is learning to play the guitar and also watched him teach Hannah how to play Dance Dance Revolution... wow... that is all I can say... wow... eventually drag my kids from their house and came home... now they're in the tub getting all of the make up scrubbed off of their little faces and we will have yet another day of on-the-go excitement in the morning... how fun! The upside to our late evening is tonight we set our clocks back an hour... oh, wouldn't it be grand if we could get an extra hour of sleep every weekend?
