And So It Begins!!

 Oh no ... OH NO!!!  It's the FULL HARVEST MOON on a Tuesday!!  You know what THAT means.  And it's already begun.  The Kitchen Manager called last night to say she's SICK and won't be there.  I thought ... no big deal, I'll just have to slice up a few tomatoes and chop some onions.  

She sent the TWO PAGE list of what needs to be done.  I'm going into delegation mode ... those bingo players are going to be put to work!!

This is the brightest moon of the year ... for hunters and harvesting.  Also good for making my front yard a TON of work from all the leaves falling off that huge sycamore tree.  The gardener will be happy, yes?

It was mostly a recovery day.  I spent all morning doing accounting work.  It seems every time they wrote a check, it recorded it twice, with different check numbers.  You've got to love computers!!

Then it was off to the dentist.  OH BOY!  Actually, that's usually a treat because I like the gal a lot.  She's a cat adopter ... says the Universe blessed me with Kitters.  I'm not so sure about that, but maybe it blessed Kitters with me.  

She snuck in the door again, happy to wander around until she caught the smell of Jonathan.  Out the door she went.

It's easy to get her moving ... just tap the kitty food container and drop in a few pieces.  She's definitely well fed.  So far the feeder has lasted 18 days and is still half full.  Remind me to put the backup batteries in.

Company came in late and left early after depositing these zinnias from her friend's garden.  They are just gorgeous!!  No enhancement of the colors here ... that's exactly how they look.

Lunch was easy once again.  I think there are nine tomatoes on the counter now.  This should be just about the last harvest.  Even with the harvest moon, I'm not into harvesting any more.  

What I AM into is Halloween.  I have absolutely no idea what motivated me this year.  It's been so bad the last two years that I gave away most all the decorations.  At this point, Amazon loves me and knows exactly where I live.  

The witch that ran into my pillar came first.  Her broom landed on the porch, so I set it up.  The wreath got a big black bow with a skull whose eyes light up.

That was followed by headstones, just before the ghosts appeared.  They fly across the front of the house.  The only thing missing is the scary music.  I can't wait to hear it blasting across the neighborhood.  And yeah, well, I ordered another ghost dispenser and an entire yard of tombstones.

Yup I even found my old witches outfit in the back closet, green face paint and all.  I'm not sure how all this will shake out since I still have candy left over from last year.  A new box of snickers now resides in the fridge, so I hope at least a FEW stop by so I don't have to eat it all.

Here's to a night of dagger eyes, flame throwing, pitchfork prodding and mayhem at Bingo during a FULL MOON!!!  Please let me return home unscathed and sane.

P. S.  I ordered that kitty warmer for the patio.  I told you Amazon loves me!!
