Well, I finally got the finishing touches done on the kids' costumes and they took them to school today and of course came home with a bag full of tooth-decay in pretty colours and great flavours!
Polly looked so cute as a Faerie Princes...pretty little wings and all! The boys went as the darkside....Troy was the Grim Reaper and Taylor was the Scream dude.
We ended up having to drive around this stupid Village of the Inbred Idiots that we live in but we were able to see one of the home mothers from Polly's class and my AVON customer, so at least that part was nice enough.
Surprisingly though, the boys wanted to call it quits before I expected them too...talk about a shock! Time to pick mommy off the ground! Even though we didn't go to too many houses, they still made out like bandits....then of course the tedious task of going through ALL of that candy and checking each and every piece....there's no way in hell I'm going to risk the well being and safety of my children!
This year was so emotional for me....I watched Polly as she crossed the road with her brothers and just realizing that she was getting so big! She'll be 5 on December 21st!! She's my precious little baby and she's just getting so big, so quick! I started to cry, kind of in disbelief as to how quickly the years have gone by.
Well, we got home, candy in check, rationed out 3 pieces before bed...you guessed it, mommy is a hard-ass....lol, you would think they would be used to it by now!! It must not have bothered them too much because I then told them it was time for bed seeing as it was 2100 already and they still have school tomorrow, but the boys went in their room, laid down and within 45 minutes at the most, they were out. Then Polly butt came in the living room, laid down and within an hour, she was sawing logs...lol.
Now, for tomorrow! If I can get to bed soon, which I am very tired...it's hitting me, the drive and weekend events so now it's time for mommy to drag....bleh. Anyway, hopefully if I can muster enough energy tomorrow, granted I don't wake up with another WONDERFUL migraine, as soon as Polly leaves for school, I'll head to Taylorville and get some goodies put on lay-a-way, while Wally World still has it...man, that sure does piss me off!!!! Regardless, I'll get stuff put on for Polly's b-day and for Christmas and maybe put a separate one on just for decor....since we were given that nice new tree from Gena, we can use that this year....but where? Time to rearrange the furniture!
Then I'll head to Dollar Tree and get some of the purtiful goodies they have there and bring them home in the hopes that they make it from now until the weekend after Thanksgiving...or whenever it is that the kids and I come back from our holiday in Iowa with Troy.
Oh shit...I forgot I have wet clothes in the washer!!! Time to sign off and take care of that!
