Today at work we had a Halloween costume contest along with a holiday lunch. Almost everybody dressed up and were in the mood for fun.
The votes were tallied and the cat lady took home second place. Only short by one vote, darn it, but still received an Amazon gift card and candy! That crazy cat lady costume was quite the hit!
Straight home after work and the trick or treaters were already casing the sidewalk. Ran inside, filled the candy bowl, and waited for the storm to hit. First trick or treater arrived at 4:51 and the final batch rang the bell at 9:30!! Sad news for them is candy ran out about 8pm. Went through about 600 pieces of candy so it was a red letter Halloween. And no rain!
Friend Marie came over to enjoy the merriment. She dressed up as a tiger while my cat lady costume stayed on until the candy was gone. Changed my clothes and spent a good while combing and brushing through the rats nest that was my hair. So much hairspray this beaten and battered mop is going to need some intense deep conditioning!
Son Sam, with girlfriend Kaitlyn and her daughter, stopped by to say hi and visit. Very cute superhero costumes.
It's now almost 10pm, everyone is gone and it's about time for bed. Long but memorable day.
