All good things.

After 15 years of decorating for Halloween, adding new things to our display every year to get the kids to venture down to our end of the block passing all the darkened porch lights and handing out handfuls of candy to make the trip worth it. We have had steadily declining numbers of trick or treaters so I think Needles and I have come to a decision. This will be the last year we decorate and hand out candy. I think the best year we ended up with around 70+ T or T'ers. Last year we had 52 and this year 37. I think we can decorate our yard all we want but I can't make my stingy ass neighbors turn on their porch lights and hand out candy. Oh well it was a good run. They win, our light will be off next year.

Zombie Walk 2011

Made the trip down to Greenville, Kentucky this weekend to attend the Zombie Walk. We had a great time watching all the Zombies and getting some pictures. I think the last head count was over 350 zombies with well over 500 watching the event.

Thank God This F*cking Week Is Over.

To say I am done with this week is an understatement. October is getting off to a rough start.

Sense of Loss.

This week hasn't been a good week. There seems to be a little uproar with my family that I am not taking sides and just staying out of it. The less I know the better. On top of that situation we had a long time neighbor and friend of the family pass away on Wednesday and I found out about it Thursday and if that wasn't enough we received a phone call this morning that informed us that my sister-in-law's brother loss their 14 month old child in her sleep. This of course would be devastating news to anyone but this same thing has happened to one of the parents more that once just makes it even worse. I feel like I am numb from all the emotions I have been through this week and I feel like my emotions aren't in check as they usually are. I hope that the situation with my family resolves itself soon and my heart goes out to my neighbor's and sister-in-law's family.
