Today's Question(s):
ok with Halloween 1 week away I gotta ask

Who still has to get candy & stuff ? I haven't. But, I am not going to be home to hand out candy. So, I do not need to get any

Anyone going to or giving a Halloween party ? Nope

Bonus Question:

What are your plans for this weekend ? Cleaning up; and do a little work too.

Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing you did that " made a difference" ? How are you defining difference? In its most general terms, I would like to think that the things that I do on a daily basis makes a difference in one way or another. And, of course, if I pray that someone gets well, then I believe that makes a difference too.

Just for Fun:

Last thing that made you just a bit "crazy: ? I drive really fast. So, I'm sure that it was a slow driver in front of me.

Today's Question(s):
ok with Halloween 1 week away I gotta ask

Who still has to get candy & stuff ? That would be me. I'm hoping we will carve the pumpkin this weekend.

Anyone going to or giving a Halloween party ? not this year

ok Fess up who dresses their pets in a costume ? now that would be cruel wouldn't it?

Bonus Question:

What are your plans for this weekend ? Just starting to consider that - it kinda snuck up on me.

Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing you did that " made a difference" ? Sadly this had me stumped. Hopefully the way I treat my kids will make a difference.

Just for Fun:

Last thing that made you just a bit "crazy: ? The drivers in PR are crazy. Last night someone passed me on the inside of a busy downtown street - weaving in and out of traffic - if there isn't a lane to pass they just make one.

Happy Saturday everybody!

Who still has to get candy & stuff ?
I need to replace what I ate last week. So I can eat it again!
Anyone going to or giving a Halloween party ?
Not unless it's spontaneous. That's a scary thought.
ok Fess up who dresses their pets in a costume ?
No pets, but didn't do this when I had one. That cat was scary without a costume!


Bonus Question:

What are your plans for this weekend ? More wallpaper scraping (yes, I know I'm boring you all with my whining about it), then find something fun to do. Perhaps a scary movie tonight...

Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing you did that " made a difference" ? Gave a woman the # to the domestic violence shelter. She seemed very relieved to know support is available... hope she called.

Just for Fun:

Last thing that made you just a bit "crazy: ? My boss yesterday treating us in a thoughtless manner. It made me crazy cause she isn't usually like that.

I will get a bag for work, but we live in a complex and do not get Trick or Treaters

Anyone going to or giving a Halloween party ?
No, but am think about going to the Sloss Furnace, it is a spooky place without it being halloween, so with the way they have it done up now it should be really scary!

ok Fess up who dresses their pets in a costume ?
I used to do this, but they protested.

Bonus Question:

What are your plans for this weekend ?
Just the usual, shopping, errands, cleaning, laundry........

Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing you did that " made a difference" ?
I'd like to believe I make a difference everyday, I work at a Legal Service and we deal with poverty everyday.

Who dresses their pets in a costume? Well, I could go as Uncle Fester but you've all already seen the picture.

What are your plans for this weekend? Outside of grocery shopping, not much for me.

What was the last thing you did that " made a difference"? From the feedback received, I think that there are people who are learning from the journal I've been keeping. Hopefully, it really is making a difference for someone somewhere.

Last thing that made you just a bit "crazy"? The fact that I still don't have full feeling in my fingers from the damn chemo drugs. I'm told it might take a couple of months although there are some website research that suggests it could take up to forty months! Yes, that's making me crazy.
You have made a difference Charlie. Cancer runs in my family as well. Thanks, for all the time it was hard for you to share your story. Ladybee.

This was reported to me as a true story...Woman at the GYN and, as she was being examined, the Dr was humming the Oscar Mayer song..."wish I was an Oscar Mayer weiner."

Good & Plenty...supposedly, black licorice - not sure if it's the taste or even just the smell - increases libido in some women!
