Last Friday our school had a “Fall Festival”. Now in the years before, we went and had a really good time. I enjoyed going to each booth with my kids, and it was always a blast. This year I volunteered to work the booths for both children. I didn’t know what I was getting into. I just knew that because I was going to have to work for 2 kids instead of just one, I wasn’t going to get to spend any time with them. But, because I worked the booths, I got to kinda see what each of their teachers were like. Both of them were really fun to be around and I must say Noisy’s teacher was really a lot of fun. She is, well or was new to the school this year, and I really like her. I was kind of afraid she would think I’m an idiot because of the way I am about Noisy. But she is really down to earth. Nosey’s teacher, or one of them, he has 4, was just as cool. I was afraid I would just be so filled with anxiety that I wouldn’t be able to be myself. But these teachers made me feel at ease. So anyway the point is, I did have a good time, and the kids had their friends to hang out with and I still got to see them and hang out with them. I am so lucky to have them.
Oh yes, it is finally Halloween. Tomorrow this holiday will be over, so over. I am not saying I hate Halloween, just that I am ready for it to be over. We have already been to the parties, hayrides, and festivals. Now tonight is the trick or treating part. This is the part I really don’t like. The reason is because I have to drive around, get out of the car and let them out. The reason is we live in a small community and to trick or treat we have to drive in between homes for most of it. Now in town I can at least follow behind them for some of the way, but I still have to get out of the car. Sound like I’m whining?? You betcha. I know that everyone has to do this. Drive, get out, drive, get out. But they will enjoy it and that is what matters. So ok, there it is. My Halloween post. Happy Friggin Halloween.
