HALLOWEEN CHAOS

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. For years, I've always jumped right in to the spirit of halloween. I would purchase my candy for trick-or-treaters atleast a week in advance, if I were dressing up I would have an idea of what my costume would be pretty early in the month, I'd put halloween decorations up, carve pumpkins with my nieces and nephews. It would be nothing but complete Halloween bliss! This year --NOTHING! I haven't purchased halloween candy, I don't have a costume (for the halloween party that my husband and I are supposedly "hosting"), there are no spooky decorations up, and no cute pumpkin sitting on my doorstep. To top it off, IT'S HALLOWEEN TODAY. I've been at work all day today stressing about tonight. Hobart, (my husband), keeps assuring me that he's got everything under control. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! His definition of "under control" is as long as our house hasn't burned down everything is (repeat with me) "under control". This is the same guy that once plugged our christmas lights in to our swamp cooler on the roof and blew out the motor. Yup, same guy. He's been at home today getting everything ready for tonight. Maybe I don't give him enough credit. We'll just have to see. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
