Of confused dandilions and small boys

One of the Angel's friends posted on Facebook that her father visited her house in Maine.... And picked a yellow, newly bloomed dandilion. Even the flowers are confused, with temperatures in the 40's and low 50's.

It is hard to recall that Christmas is in two weeks. We have the dark of winter, sunset at 4:30, but not the cold.

In more amusing news, while I changed clothes in the bathroom there came a polite tapping on the door. Followed by "Ooooow-Ooo-Oooooow!" Which was repeated several times in a high pitched time. Followed by "I am a ghooooooooost" in a rather familiar small boy's voice. Just as I managed to stop grinning like a loon, the voice added "I will eat your soul!"

It is extremely hard to not howl with laughter, but I managed to as I did not want to hurt his feelings.

Halloween, or lack thereof

Halloween got cancelled, for the most part, in our household, due to sick.

This was rather saddening, as we were fortunate to have Kiddo at our place (due to scheduling, this is unlikely for several more years) and were really looking forward to trick-or-treating.

However, with Angel sick since last Wednesday, me getting sick Friday, and Kiddo arriving with a very stuffy nose and coughing in his sleep, it was decided that the best option was to stay home and watch Star Wars movies.

We did let Kiddo pick out a bag of half-off Halloween candy the next day. He wanted the bag of chocolate balls whose wrappers were designed to look like eyeballs. He is, indeed, his father's son.

Hope everyone else had a wonderful weekend.
