That is so ugly and scary, Cwillie. If I remember correctly, there was one teacher with that look, and it wasn't halloween. Mostly though, I loved all my teachers, throughout the years.
So, now I have my pumpkin on. Instead of risking a copyright protected photo off the internet, this one is a real family photo.! My avatar is a carved pumpkin that my artist brother carves every year for display at his store. Looks a little like him....lol.
Oh, BTW, I have a calendar in each room. Something I can recommend to seniors who often lose track of what day it is. I recommend writing appointments on only one calendar. These are spooky times for many seniors. I see it as an opportunity for God to work in our lives, instead of giving up and resolving that It is what it is".
Cwillie, Just too busy to check if someone else did their jobs correctly or messed up more of the calendar. Decided not to try to do things perfectly, because now I have different priorities. If I am awake, if someone comes to the door, if I hear it, I will give out some candy, and then turn out the lights, lock the doors, go to bed, and not answer the door. Not Sunday night, not Monday night! The calendar is just one more thing that I can no longer trust, but that's okay. Why is it okay? Because I am the keeper of the chocolate candy!
Got this calendar on clearance the first of October. No one said it was defective! There was no Oct. 31st. Was wondering, again-when do we turn out the lights, pretend no one's home, and get to eat all the candy? Sunday night, Monday night?
I'm going te re-enter my Jack-o-lantern from last year. This was actually done by my Eldest Son with a real fishbowl insert, and real fish inside too! Pretty Spooky!
Some beautiful pumpkins tonight, and some ugly ones too. Great effort everyone! Can you post on this thread so they can all be seen together? Love, from the Ugly Pumpkin
Hey, good idea............check expiry date on candy. If it's soon........you have an excuse to eat it all. Hang on.........just putting my jacket on.......gotta run to the nearest junk food store.
Stacey, Your comment about prizes from last year-let's have Ms. Madge award the prizes, just after the VOTE! She is still trying to figure out how to mail in n out burgers to Canada! ha ha, lol.
That avatar is a monkey, and I'm sticking to it! For a short while, at least.
Has anyone seen the latest Halloween Avatars-they are actually photos of people! Scary, huh? I think people are the scariest. Lol.
Cwillie, Thanks only to you, and your example of what to do with halloween candy, (that would be to eat all of it, then buy more), I bought 18 packaged candy bars. They are sealed in the box, hmmmn.
Cwillie, You were supposed to buy pumpkins. Was the candy at the dollar store chocolate? Was it expired, or about to expire? No wonder you had to eat it all right away. No problem!
Glad, I thought it was a nose sticking out, too. Then I copied and pasted it on my Microsoft word - enlarged it. It was very pretty Glad. And so detailed! The pumpkin looks like the planet earth. The tornado - is obvious - and the car is flying out of the tornado. The carver is very talented with great imagination. I kept a copy of that pumpkin. Sooo unique!

Happy Halloween!
For those of us who don't celebrate for faith reasons, you be happy too!

So Are November and December dates totally messed up or do you just lose a day?

Just so no one will notice, suppose I could get some expired at the dollar store.
Cwillie, Are you still with us? How was that candy?
She is still trying to figure out how to mail in n out burgers to Canada! ha ha, lol.

Still there, in the box. Hmmmmnn.

I am already scared, and aging.
Perfectly worded for getting older, caregiving for others.
I had lots of fun, thanks everyone, again thanks!
