Happy Hippie-hugging Halloween!
Today is October 31, 2013.
Today, I:
…met a Ninja!
…talked football with the Manning brothers!
…kissed a witch and hugged a butterfly!.
…bumped into several Minecraft characters and a few zombies!
…gawked at a bloody-faced ghoul, who followed a line of brides, princesses and pirates!
…embraced a piece of my past,- a hippie wanna-be, sporting psychedelic tinted glasses, tie-dyed, oversized shirt and an afro wig!Today, I rejoice because all the candy I purchased is gone, my lawn has been stomped on by hundreds of kids, and the candles inside my stoop-side pumpkins are burnt down and melted away to smithereens.
Today, I realize that I am happy because, in spite of Sandy, we are living another scream-filled, child-chilled, pumpkin-smashing, pirate-sabering, cotton-candy walking, medusa-stalking, hippie-hugging, super Mario-playing, Halloween!
Today is October 31, 2013.
Happy Halloween!

Thank you. I didn’t know what to write last night, as the last day of NaBloPoMo hit me! Then I realized that I had no time because I’d been so busy with Halloween parades and trick or treating with two sets of grand kids. That’s when it hit me- I thoroughly enjoyed Halloween this year! Thanks for your kind words.

I hadn’t realized how much I missed Halloween, the last couple of years. But this year it was fun to chat with te kids. It seemed that as I walked around with Rob and Robby, the people at the homes were friendlier, too. Love you! Me.
