Rainy Halloween

Halloween this year was flanked by two beautiful, sunny Fall days. Halloween itself, however, was not so nice. In fact, it was just plain nasty. Between cold temps and the rain, the adults couldn’t win. To the kids, however, the weather didn’t matter. They just wanted to go trick-or-treating with each other, and run around the neighborhood like crazy, ringing doorbells and collecting candy. The cold drizzle didn’t bother them one bit. Us moms kept commenting that at least it wasn’t as cold as last year, when there were snow flurries fluttering around us all afternoon. Plus, there was a hot crock pot full of chili waiting in my kitchen, along with “mummy” dogs for Lily and Emmy since they don’t care for my chili even in cold weather.

How was your Halloween? Was it rainy or sunny?

Busy, Busy!

I’ve so busy lately, as I’m sure you all have been! Preschool started after Labor Day, so I’m back to working five mornings a week. The girls have started school and their various extracurricular activities. Ed is as busy as always!

In short, my writing has suffered. Why do I keep up the Spin Cycle? To keep writing–writing anything, even if I end up throwing something together at the last minute!

Are you as busy as a bee?

I know you are busy, too. So this week’s Spin Cycle topic is busy. Write about what’s keeping you busy these days, and link up your posts here! I’ll be back on Friday, writing about being busy…even though I’m busy!
