well the trick or treating is done. We went to all of the streets around here. I drove and they walked most of the way/ We were gone for one and a half hours. We got back home at 7:30p.m. with sacks full of candy. They have showered and I am letting them eat candy and watch tv. I made them some red punch snd had filled a latex glove with water and froze it and had it floating in the red punch. It looked like a cut-off had floating in the red punch. It ws a hit, but Brendan made me show him that is was just fruit punch and not blood because he said it looked too much like blood. You know I hate Halloween, and the only reason I did this is because they have been looking so forward to thisnday. I think I showed them a good time.

I just bought them a hamburger for super tonight because I knew we would be leaving early for trick or treating and they would be feasting on junk dcandy. I was right, and the kitchen is clean.

My back is beginning to hurt and I am ready to go to bed. It wont be long until I am able to go. I just heard something spill that sounded like a million marbles! Oh my mercy! Another job, or should I just gripe at the childre? I will try to have my mind made up by the time i get to them. Good nite to you all. love you. jk
