Boo! with no Hoo!

Wishing everyone a fun Halloween eve and Halloween!

I have bought more candy which I won't open until the first knock on the door.

I have lots of easy to heat up foods for guests who might pop in and for my houseguests.

But, I do have to clean the house.

Why do I spend most of my time either cleaning it or thinking about cleaning it? Can't it stay clean for once in its life?

I must admit the four animals do their share of messing things up and if I had some extra money I'd invest in Oust, S'Wheat cat litter and Arm & Hammer Litter box deoderizer.

Onward to the feather duster!

I meant I'd invest in stock as I certainly have invested enough cash in those items!!

hey mary i know the feeling about cleaning. i dont mind cleaning most of the house. i just hate the bathrooms.
anyway i found a website that you might want to check out http://www.flylady.net
its all about setting up routines and it works i know it sounds stupid but it does not take me nearly as long to clean my house as it used to:)

I'm in a perpetual state of cleaning and it bothers me. Talk about killing ones creative mood. Is that your pumpkin? I'll take a pic of ours-it's a cat and my husband said it looks like it's mayan. I will flip out if someone steals it-and tonight is the Devils night.

Ilanna, your babies are so so cute! Thanks for posting their photos, I love them!

Jackie, I was a flybaby about 6 months ago, and I was doing so well...then they changed the email format and I slipped back into slobbery...I am trying to get going again...I even have the Flylady duster!!

Dasha...a hollow weenie? oh my!

PG - Yes, it sure does kill the creative buzz...staying home and trying to be creative is hard..we need studios!

It is my pumpkin but it's fake..you plug it in, though it's one of the best fakes and husband bought if for me so it has sentimental value but no seeds.

*knock* *knock*

Recover yet?

Any candy left for me?

We ended up going out to Church Street in Toronto with the photography group to take pictures of the costumed folks... They close down the street and have a street party.

It was wild and crazy... details on my Blog and pictures on my Flicker... including... believe it or not... a canded picture (uncostumed) someone took of me and posted on their flickr page!

(Linked by one of my images!).

Hope you had a great night... and that there were not too many beverages consumed!

;)
