Well, it is after Labor Day, so white is a definite no-no.
I just wrote a long post over on the Hermits thread about my morning. I will shorthand it here and tell you I fell. You can go there for the gory details. Suffice it to so I probably won't even be going to the door. But I'm ok.

Sorry to hear you hit the deck Magdalene - maybe you should change your costume to patient, same as Peppermint. Sounds like Snookiesmom and Sass should be patients too, or maybe a Sassy a repair man?
Chevyboy- what are you dressing up as?
I just put on a witch hat and open the door a zillion times to hand out candy. We get soooo many kids and they are so cute. Lots of fun. I have never seen a neighborhood so fixated on Halloween as this one! Lots of fun for the kids. Happy Halloween ya'll!

Mags I just read it, u poor thing, falls are hard to take when u'r body isn't as strong as it should be. Well at east u didn't fall over a BOULDER like Chevy did, u'd think her body would be limber with her pole dancing.
OK I think I am officially going to get a cane very soon, I hated to give in to this, but maby I've have more confidence in walking not all bent over I hope--I kept on thinking I can do it, well I can but my body is fighting me like crazy.Even tho I gave it a lot of fun over the years.
Oh and BTW Mags I don't think chevy and I were thinking about labor day white--we just thought in general no white for many of us anymore.

Teka you're so funny...thread slowing down. Hells bells we can hardly keep up at 2-4 pages a day. It slows down on the weekends from Friday night till Sun. Sun is irregular. I think it has to do with football.Smarrty------------have funnnnnnnnnn
Mags I hope all is better.
Enerva----------you are so artistic.
Patty LOL with Chevy's pics. The guys don't look like my DBF. MY guy's nickname would be "STICKMAN". Skin and bones.
Water heater going in today, then we can check out the dishwasher. Then I can call the bug guy. It's a domino thing. If you spray for fleas, you're supposed to wash everything in hotwater. No hotwater. No if I can just get the guy in the garage to put the WH in. The liftmaster chain broke----life time warranty----they sent the chain DBF had it only partially fixed.
Methinks Just about everything is about replaced .I'll have to inventory.
ANY ways sorry for anyone's troubles, May be BBL starting a sleep attack. It's going to be work staying awake.

Too far behind to even try! So I'll just say "hi"!0 -
Cami, Get a purple cane and decorate with lazer glow stars. Hope KatieKat doesn't react to sticks. We had a foster cat who was terrified of my friend's cane.

Wren I have to get it decorated but I never thought about my cat, she's so skiddish about so many silly things. This should be interesting. for her and me. U know I feel like I'm giving in by getting a cane instead of helping me. I wish I could get over this stupid feeling. And t is stupid. LOL

Cami, I've been using a cane for a few years now. Found a beautiful one at Walgreen's of all places, and I've gotten so many compliments on it. I got it mostly because I have no cartilage in my knees and I only use it when I'm out and about as I don't have too much trouble getting around in the house, although it's come in handy after surgeries. You'll be surprised how much you lean on it!

Mags, keep it coming funny one, Chevy needs some competition. I will zip over to Hermits to read your tale of near disaster...
I have been BUSY....getting the house ready to sell has taken over my life. DH will never see the stuff that needs to be done, not in his nature. I bought a new shower curtain rod, that came with a nice curtain ( Costco ) thinks it silly to spend $ on updating stuff.....DD tells him what's what... She is blunt as they come. Tells me all the time "your clothes are too big & baggy".
I am going to go back & try to catch up....
Patty P, have a great time with your boys tonight. Get a heated throw or blanket as warm as it will get. Take it, so you can start toasty. If you stop somewhere, plug your self in for a few minutes. I bought a heated throw yesterday at Costco for $24. They have them on sale, $6 off.
Blondie, it's you ! Cool, I love photos.
Ok, hello to all....Be safe...

went to ortho, it's broken. In a hard purple cast for 5 weeks
Cami, my great grandfather made this cane. I've used it, it really helps. Better than wall walking!
Today is Spookies birthday. She is 5! I can't get her shirt on with this cast. It says I'm the birthday girl. She and Kris will have s special cookie later

Today they didn't pay me so I will have to move some money to cover my bills. Hopefully next week it'll get pay. The pnk carving was fun but yet we did not win lol

Tomorrow I will go to a prostate cancer charity even and it is a gun shooting even. I am not into guns but I ll go and maybe shoot something to realese stress lol
Sister still very ill and her new tumor seams getting bigger
I am so worry i wishing could be home 0 -
Aw sheesh! It IS broke! Hope it's not your right hand... I could never do my hair, OR make-up! I would be banished to the damn house! I'm sorry Spookie!
Okay and Cammi, little honey, yes, we must use a cane.... but only when we walk.... I bought my flowered one from King Soopers! I think for about $15! But I bought another one at Ross, for only $10, and it is one of those ones you see on TV, that has like 3 little suction .... no, they are not suction cups.... they are 3 feet, and it will stand by itself.... Also has a light, for when we want to go out at night in the alley....! You know for "work"???? But I like my plain flowered pink one better, because ..... I don't know why. The other one will fold up....
You could lay your cane on the bed, and lay there with Katy-Kat, so she won't be afraid, or use it slowly, like right next to your leg. I notice when I use it more, my back doesn't hurt.... But when you limp, or walk bent, it hurts your other parts.... So go get a damn cane!
Spookie, I love that cane! I also have my Grandma's.... It's a little twisted wooden one...
And Spookie looks like a Princess! Ha!
Rosie, I just have on a Christmas sweat shirt, and my pants! But I have the Halloween decorations on the front porch.... just waiting for the little gremlins!
And wait...... Mags? You FELL? Oh for God's sakes! You weren't even pole dancin' or nothing? I have to go read it.... You should copy and past that post here... but it's okay.... I'll go read it.
Did you hurt anything? On you? My DH tripped on a rug that was folded inside the door at the store today, and as he was trying to fall, he threw his hand out, and it came down on my arm, and now I have a black, purple, and blue bruise on my arm! But at least he didn't fall.... I am so used to looking where I am walking now!
Sass! Come back when you got everything fixed! These broken things drive me nuts.... I just hate to even THINK about something breaking down! And those guys I sent you are so hard to find nowadays! Hour DDDBBBBFFFF is skinny? Is that attractive? Can't you fatten him up a bit? THEN post a picture of him....

hi guys. We're in SF. Fly tomorrow. I will post when I can and read of course. Don't want to get pages behind. I'll post pics too when I can if you guys want me to.
HI1- I'll play when I can. This game is almost done. Don't start a new one until I get back if you want.
Spookie, why is her name Spookie? She doesn't look scary!
Sorry about the fall mags, sound like nothing got broken. That's a good thing.
Whoever broke her arm, 2nd??, sorry about that, hope it's not your dominate hand. You guys be good now.

Funny you should mention almond joys... My 13 year old just traded a bunch of candy she didn't like for Almond joys which she loves! We are still getting a ton of adorable little kids! One little boy suddenly bent down and dramatically came back up. I wondered what is this little guy doing? Mom pitched - "he's transforming!" But of course! Hey what do I know being a dumb 56 year old? I had one preschooler jump up and down shouting "me pick!" So I let her and she was most gracious, took one and shouted "thank you!" Being little she had a BIG voice! Loved it. I think I have as much fun watching and listening to the kids as they do going out. Yep supporting our dentists! Had one kid with a zipper down his face and the most amazing make-up.. totally disgusting and very real looking. Yep I love Halloween. Won't turn off the light until 9:30 catch the last of the teenagers.
Any one else awake?

Who is starting to talk again? I missed something. Glad you made it back from your walk and didn't get too wet. We are still getting the stray trick or treaters so I am up. I enjoy the kids. Hope everyone is safe and having fun.

Thanks for caring my friend, I hope everyone here and You Teka
take care, I have to get my machines ready, and that makes my
sleep problem worse. But life is good when You know you are not alone.

mags - sorry to hear about your fall. I guess some people will do anything to get out of wearing a costume. Lol
Teka - too funny. Thread slowing down.
Chevy well at least you tried for mags. Maybe next year.
Cami / I bet you can find a rocking looking cane. Better to party with a cane than be laid up with something broken at home right ?
Wren - cane wrappers. Never heard of such a thing but sounds cool.
Holeinone - I had no idea they had electric throws I thought only blankets. I am always sitting with a throw on for warmth even in the summer.beung old makes my bones hurt worse. I am def gonna go look for one this week. Gotta have it.
Spookie - purple cast for 5weeks. Bless your heart. Sounds like a pita. At least you'll have it off by Christmas. That s sonething positive to look forward to. Is purple your favorite color ? Did they give you a choice in color ?
Still no Hawaii pics from garden gumby. ?
Rosevalley. Lol too funny with all the people in here who should have went as patients.
Well dh and both ds's and I went trick or treating. We met with some friends. I think there was 10 adults and 8 kids. Most everyone dressed up. It was cold. Like 43. I was toasty warm in the wheelchair under the blanket with a few layers of clothes on. My dh looked mighty sexy with his scrubs on pushing my wheelchair. Told him to keep the scrubs if my bones ever allow a good toss in the hay again on a regular basis he might need that sexy dr's outfit. Ok tmi. Sorry. Oldest ds was a yellow m&m and youngest ds was a hamburger. Not sure what happened to the old costumes , like ghosts , mummies cowboys etc.
Hope everyone had a safe Halloween.
Hootie hoo

Oh boy I did not get many trick or treaters. I lit into the candy and I can't seem to sleep watching Perry mason again. Hope I can wind down soon.

I just love getting up and seeing how you guys talked to each other last night!
I LOVE the canes HiHo! Yes, a girl needs spares, for when I can't find the one I was USING! They should be parked in different locations! For getting up from sitting is the worst! I try and act like normal, but it takes a minute for that leg to realize I NEED it to help out a little!
My Grandma got in trouble at her Assisted Living place one time... They all had to go down to their dining room for meals, and some dumb gal.... or a couple reported her for whacking their legs with a cane under the table. She could be such a rebel sometimes.... I think she had "issues" with them.
So I was asked to talk to her about her cane-smacking table manners.... I just told her "Grandma, it would be better if you didn't smack those women with your cane sometimes." She just said "I don't do that." ..... But at least they didn't move her to an empty table.
I LOVED last night! Those little kids were soooooo cute! Little Ivy and Ellie came first, with Nick their HOT Daddy...! Ellie tripped getting in our house, and her plastic pumpkin HIT the floor, I thought OH NO! But she just scrambled up... They took a hand-full each... But we had so much fun seeing those kids! We only got about 30 I think.... Lots of candy left over...
Peppermint, that was funny what you said to Spookie! About "Bless your heart".... You forgot pea-pickin' heart... Ha! It was her wrist... And how come you are in a wheel-chair again? Did I miss something again, or forgot? And so that shouldn't keep you from a romp in the hay once in awhile.... just don't put the wheel chair in bed with you! It ALWAYS gets in the way... even a walker! A cane is probably fine... but not that other stuff. Just tell DH to put those damn scrubs on again, and you go watch something on your computer that is slightly porno-like, and then go scrambling into bed and say "Come here Doctor boy"..... Tell him you need fixin'...!
Oh, now watch, I will get comments about THAT, I suppose.
Morning Meow! I hope I don't shock you or anything.... See, I'm "older" so I get a free pass once in awhile.....
Cammers, are you feeling better? I see you put together a complete sentence, of which I am proud of you! Did you get a cane yet? You will see how much better it is to walk... without pain! Yes, you could glue streamers and sparkles on it! And paint your name with nail polish... Just paint "I'm Easy".... like they used to call you.... Or was it "midnight cowgirl?" Oh wait.... that was me....
Teka, Foots, and Rosie & Peppermint were all up last night... talking about stuff... I love that.
Sass, sounds like you are running normally again.... Hot water is always a "good thing".... like Martha would say. And you said something else that I don't have a clue about, but you are on the last page, and I can't look right now...
