Hello, welcome back, and happy Halloween! It's been rainy, cold and windy here with a few warm days sprinkled in. Everyone was pulling out the winter clothes this past week. At least tonight it will be dry and pleasant for the trick-or-treaters.
Here are last week's pictures:
Day 296- Monday, 10/23/23
We started the week wet with some rain but thankfully not a traffic jam.
Day 297- Tuesday, 10/24/23
Today was was a much better sunny day plus Taco Tuesday for dinner. It's so nice to have help planning and prepping meals again.
We're expecting near freezing temps overnight so I bet I won't be seeing these wonderful roses out back much longer. It's time to prune the bushes way back and prep for winter. Rusty also found another new napping spot upstairs where it's a bit warmer.
Today was brutally cold and windy with more rain here and there. It was the perfect weather for a chili and baked potato dinner. Rusty is not a fan of this cold snap and has taken to napping in a loaf position near my feet to cope. He's our little pumpkin loaf.
Day 300- Friday, 10/27/23
TGIF! Here are some more of my house pumpkins and for our Friday night movie we watched the Halloween Ends movie that was in theaters last year and is streaming this year. We're on a mission these next few days to watch a bunch of scary movies--'tis the season.
Today I was working on projects around the house like trying to find a better color match for touch-up paint in our bedroom. The paint we had that is supposed to be the same on the wall is drying too dark. Hopefully one of these will work better so we don't have to paint the entire walls of the 3 we need touch-ups on. Fingers crossed! Later I also prepped a bit more for Halloween--need to make sure I have enough candy to fill the cauldron for the big day and it looks like we're set. Now to avoid eating too much before then.
Brrr! Definitely time to switch to winter PJs and slippers. Our overnight temps and early mornings are pretty darn cold. At least once the sun comes out it does warm up for the afternoon and is still pleasant out as long as there is no wind. This afternoon was a good day to be out for a wine pick up. Then around dinner time Brandon sent me a picture of him on a date night with his girlfriend. They like the scary movies too. Boo!
That's it for another week and month. Time to kick off November and can't wait to have the college kids back home for their Thanksgiving week break.
Love your idea to watch scary movies before Halloween! Beautiful rose! And the location of the wine pick-up is gorgeous! Glad Brandon is doing well! We never get any trick-or-treaters at our place.
