Halloween Hangover

Did anyone else wake up with a snickers wrapper stuck to their face, m and m's in their bed and a mary jane in their shoe? Or was that just me. Had to drag kids (ok one kid, my oldest) out of bed by his toes, hes happy but tired. Halloween has come and gone and all thats left is too much chocolate for me to be legally allowed to be home with. I woke up thinking... NOVEMBER 1st? HOW did that happen? I feel like I say that way to often. The swiftness with which time passes scares me as I see the kids growing daily and waking up to another milestone. Birthdays....done. Back to school... done. HALLOWEEN??... done. So sad. To make matters more crazy, and as if my kids werent hyped up enough yesterday they discovered the BIG CHRISTMAS TOY BOOK for toys-r-us. Christmas in toys in October...why not.
That being said I decided this year since I am not working to try and get some Christmas shopping done each week. Not necessarily to be DONE, but to spread out the spending that happens. Everything from gifts to extra groceries, wrapping paper and tape and extra nights of ordering food out. Anyway I need to literally and figuratively clear out the cobwebs from Halloween and get started on Thanksgiving prep. Am headed to one of my favorite stores today in hopes of some thanksgiving goodies. I KNOW! Im getting excited over buying a turkey roaster! Anyway- enjoy your day of stealing your favorite candy out of your kids trick or treat loot!!
