Happy Halloween!
Hi folks,
Happy Halloween & welcome to my first post. I’m painfully aware that I have some big shoes to fill and, no joke, I’m a little intimidated. That said, I’m going to give it my all and we’ll see how it works out (fingers crossed).
Please pardon the messy state of things; today isn’t just All Hallows Eve for me, it’s also move-in-day and I’m not even close to done unpacking.
You see, about a year back, I designed a tiny house for myself (post about that to follow) – 40 feet long, 13.5 feet tall, and 8.5 feet wide. It took a while to complete the project and, while you might be cringing at the thought of such limited space, to me, it feels like a palace. I did just spend a year + in a tiny rented, 12 x 12 room, after all.
I’m not going to let the chaos of my place stop me from celebrating Halloween, though. I managed to carve a jack-o-lantern, I’m watching horror movies on my laptop, and I popped to the store to get yummy treats to hand out. Sadly, I was unable to find my box of Halloween decorations that had the severed heads in it - yes, there’s more than one - next year ;)
I also may or may not have gone through my husband’s closet to pull this year’s Halloween look together using his big, comfy, leather coat. It might not be the first time I’ve borrowed it without asking first, but we’ll keep that between us. Not that he’d mind, he’s the mushy, understanding sort. He won’t notice…assuming that I manage not to spill anything on it.
Knock on wood.
I’m doing my best impression of Dean Winchester of Supernatural, complete with frown:
Not that I’m as cool as a guy that drives around with his brother hunting ghosts, ghouls, and demons, that can actually claim his BFF is an angel - but I can look the part. Right? Right.
I’ll be leaving my lights on until the last of the candy is gone, so if you need a piece, you know where to find me. You may hear a slight scream when you knock or ring the bell - it just means the horror movie is a good one.
Thanks for stopping in and happy Halloween 😊
