I slept in. I woke up because the doorbell rang at 2015, and was just about to fall asleep and it rang again. Just before my eyelids slammed shut for the final time, I did a facepalm.

For the first time in umpteen years, I live in an area where there are children, and accompanied by a parent, they celebrated Hallowe’en by ringing doorbells of houses that have their porchlights on. (Mine is on for security reasons — because the security lights don’t work.)

And me with no candy... They didn’t mind. They just kept going. “No candy here, let’s try the next place!”

That’s what happens when you live in a senior community forever.

Sorry you were disturbed! There wasn’t much trick-or-treat here because of bad weather. It’s much cooler this morning. I wasn’t prepared - didn’t put my robe and slippers in the hall - but it’s 71 in the dining room, so I’ll be okay until others get up.
