I'm wiped out. Thankfully my sister is moved! Yeah! The house she is renting now is so much better for her family. It was worth the work. The weather cooperated, my body did too, although now I'm exhausted. I pray things work out for her, and she can purchase the home within the next 6 months.
Trick or Treating went very well. We had our biggest turnout yet. DS9 got lots of compliments on his Poptart costume. (I'll show you next week. DH promises to burn my photos to a CD at his work for me since I'm still struggling with moving them to our PC with our USB cord or card reader.)
Even though the Posse Rats were a little hyped up from all the Halloween candy, the sleep over party was stress free. I made hot dogs, (easier and cheaper than pizza), added a few bags of chips and 2 liters of soda. I should start calling these all night video game parties, "all nighters" instead of sleep overs. None of them get much sleep. I was just glad they were all safe in our basement, instead of running around the town Halloween night, possibly getting into trouble.
Maybe this sleep over seemed less stressful because of our new deal. The boys were getting a little tired of being "abandoned", (left with a babysitter), while DH & I rocked away our midlife crisis with Blind Melon concerts. We've made a deal they get to have a sleep over for every concert we go to now. This Friday will be our 8th concert since last March. I don't know if my luck will hold. Every concert I've been stage front and managed to grab a set list or a pick. Every time I see them, I tell myself this could be it. This could be the last time I hear their songs live.
Well, I'm off to bed. I'm really trying to get 8 hours, get my exercise and drink my Emergen-C. The boys have colds, and I mistakenly drank from a contaminated water bottle! Not that I couldn't have breathed in their rhinos will all the sneezing that's been going around. I must stay well for next Friday's road trip!

Sounds like you had a great halloween also. Hope you keep healthy, don't want to get sick prior to another awesome concert.
Take Care and Hugs
I'm glad that your sister was able to get a nicer home.
Glad your Halloween was good. Hope you don't get their cold. Have a great day!
When I saw the headline of this post I couldn't help smilling because I did exactly the same thing a week ago when we switched our time. It was so nice to have the extra hour. And I was getting up early enough on Sunday morning and didn't feel tired at all.
It's very important when it comes to where you live and what the place is like. Also the location is hugely important. I've been thinking about it a lot when I've been planning things having dealings with my future apartment. I don't have a car and never will, so I need to have a good public transport network around me.
I hope you all will get rid of the cold soon. It's very easy to catch it now when the weather's getting colder. I'm hoping I won't get it. It'd be so annoying because I'm changing the job and I should be prepared to that.
Have a relaxing Sunday. I hope you got to have a good sleep!
I always wake up an hour earlier....my usual 9:30 becomes 8:30 and I get SO much more accomplished! lol
I hope you stay well for your road trip!
That is exactly what I used my extra hour for!!!
The reason they are called "sleep overs" are because the SLEEP is OVER.
