So far, we've had exactly 0 trick or treaters.  I'm really hoping this doesn't mean that they'll start later and end later, as I'd like to watch a motion picture.  I can see kids passing right by the house - how weird is that.  There's a light by the gate, there's a light by the front door and every year at this time we've already had fifty kids here.  Oh, well.

I may just go out there at some point and ask WHY.  Right now, I think I'll go leave the gate ajar - maybe that will help.

Between staying up late last night to watch Michigan lose (again), getting up at 5:30 this morning, and not getting a nap or a walk this afternoon, I'm falling asleep.

Happy Halloween, all, and - 'night!

I hope leaving the gate ajar makes a difference.

Finally, we've had an influx, an influx I tell you.  About twelve so far.

Bruce I had hoped to surprise you in Portland and now I don't think it will happen.  I'm very, very sorry.

Why?

Well, for starters Keith is not going to be able to get a break from the yard work.  The falling leaves must be removed before it snows and we have already had too many rainy days making it more difficult for him to keep up.  I can't drive that far.

I looked to see if there are any reasonably priced flights I can take.  I found some possibilities and then realized I can't book anything until I know the new medication doesn't make me sick.  If it does I might not be able to handle it on top of my usual air sickness.  So it is wait & see.

Craig may be coming home about then, along with his dog and cat.  He is on the move again in search of a job.  He wants to base here for awhile & check out his options on the west coast.  If he can't find something he will return to school, which he truly doesn't want to do, for another degree.

Well, hopefully you'll be fine, not get airsick, clean the leaves and come on up and see your pal BK.

It's really funny, though, how many people are just walking by the house - the gate is now wide open, it's very bright, and I have the BEST candy.

Lawsy, we have more T&T-ers here in the last hour than we had in 15 years at our old house.  Betsy is out buying more candy.  We've gone through four bags already.  Some incredibly cute little kids, though, my heart is just welling up when I see some of them (yes, I'm a sentimental fool).

I can't do the leaves which is why I considered flying.  I'll have to wait and see.  Hopefully I will not get sick from this stuff & the flights will not go up in price.

I did the first injection with just the right amount of pressure.  It only stung a little.  I'm tempted to mark the spot so I remember where not to do it again during the month of November.  Of course if I marked the spot every night I would look funny by the end of the month.

Keith made pop corn popped in canola oil.  I don't add anything to mine.

Now watching a kids' movie called "The Librarian," which is a refreshing change of pace. The movie praises education while setting up the usual "save the world" scenario. The special effects aren't terribly special, but any movie with Bob Newhart and Jane Curtain in the background is worth it.

Light years better than "Pal Joey."

Uh-oh. They're headed for Shangri-La. If they round the corner and Liv Ullman is singing "All the World Is a Circle," I may have to smash the DVD.
