Halloween Reading & A Grumpy Pumpkin

I would first like to say, I am not getting sick, I am not getting sick, I am not getting sick.
I've used half a tube of Head On on my forehead and I was too achy to brush my teeth,
but I tell you, I am not getting sick.
Next, Halloween decorating stresses me out. I don't know why. It just does.
I don't like to switch out all of my regular decor to make a whole Halloween vignette, so I just stick a few things in here and there. Christmas decor stresses me out too.
Also, my Christmas shopping is underway and I've already accomplished a lot. I'm really kind of proud of myself for that.
I'm going back to bed now, but it's not because I'm getting sick.

Porter would like to recommend these Halloween books.

How can Brooklyn not be smiling in this Jack-O-Lantern dress?

    I repeated that same mantra exactly 2 weeks ago: right before the flu came and knocked me on my arse.

    Alright, Love the pumpkin dress. Where do you find these things. And seriously matching jack-o-lantern crocks. I agree about decorating for the holidays. It takes me soooo long each year to get things out and decide where they should go, and I feel sad when other stuff has to be put away to make room for it all. I have no idea how we will survive with our tree and a one year old....

    Love the pumpkin dress and crocs! You have got to call your doc and ask for some Tamiflu...I'm telling you, you'll be so thankful that you did.

    Those pictures of Brooklyn are the best. Not sure if the outfit would be as cute without her pouting face.

    I don't get stressed about decorating. I don't decorate (much, anyway).

    Oh I hope you are not getting sick! That is the worst. I have two kids with the flu right now. I hope I don't get it! If I do the whole household is going to be wrecked with my husband being out of town next week.

    Take care of yourself! I am with you on the Halloween decorating. I just add a few things here and there. And I do like to decorate my porch.

    Have a great weekend!

    XOXO
