It's the day after Halloween---do you know where your kids candy is? Happy November 1st....I got back from my vacation to the tundra country (as my husband calls it) a couple days ago. I stayed an extra week from my original plan. It was so great to visit with family and friends. I even got to visit with people that I hadn't seen in 15 years or so. Oh how time flies when you get older. So this is the costume that I made for Kaitlynn for Halloween. She was a swamp girl. With me staying the extra week, it put me in a bind to get this together. It literally took me all day yesterday to make this. Right up to the time she had to leave to go trick or treating. But I like the outcome and so did she, so I guess that's what counts. I used alot of chesse cloth...and the face really didn't turn out the way I had hoped for. But all in all, it looked great. Well it's been a quiet day here. I really needed it. It's been busy since I got back that I'm glad that I could just hang out. It felt good to take an afternoon nap and rejuvenate to try and scrap some of the tons of photos I took while in Michigan. Speaking of photos, I had a disc made at Wally World and I get back and there were no pics on it. My heart sank. I had already deleted the files from my camera. I had some really special shots of family and friends, not to mention the hours I drove around up at the lakes taking photos of different things. So I called them and they are making me a new disc and printing the photos (all 235 of them) for me to end to me here.....Now if that isn't customer service, I don't know what is. Although I had alot of problems with them while I was there. Something wasn't right everytime I would go and pick my pictures/disc up. The one kid would see me coming and called me the picture lady...lol...hense the screen name, picture mom...lol...if he only knew...my daughter calls me neurotic..heehee... oh well, so I have some quarks about me... Well, this has gotten longer than I had expected. Sorry it has taken me so long to update. But I'm back at home now and hope to update more often... Hugs from a very warm Charm City
