The Halloween Classics

Did you catch The Great Pumpkin on TV Tuesday night? We have it on DVD but there is just something special about having to wait an entire year to see those holiday specials on TV, with commercials and everything. Is there anything better than Charlie Brown?

A new(ish) classic, Nightmare Before Christmas is the DVD we tend to watch over and over this time of year. I can't get the songs out of my head till after Christmas. Unfortunately I am not allowed to sing "Kidnap the Sandy Claws". According to the five-year-old I don't do it justice. Everyone's a critic.

Candy Corn = evil. Do you have any? Could I have...just...one?

Tonight we carve pumpkins and if anyone is ambitious we will roast some seeds.

Have a safe and Happy All Hallows Eve Everyone and to my Catholic friends and family, Happy All Saints Day!

Fall Fell Full

Your mission today, should you choose to accept it, is to go out side and find a wooded area. It doesn't have to be heavily wooded just a few trees is fine. Then stand there, or sit if that is more convenient. And listen.

I prescribe at least one half an hour, or the full hour if you're ambitious, but I understand how busy you are so even if you can only manage a few minutes it will be worth your time.

Thank you and have a nice day.

my new toy

I am now blogging with my birthday present...my precious. Cough cough. Sorry, I don't know where that came from. Anyway I'm keeping it short because it's quite difficult to do this with my big fat fingers. Ok, maybe my fingers aren't that fat but these keys are teeny tiny.

Say hello to my new itouch!

Thank you honey!
