Mercifully, the parties my kids went to (and homecoming game) were elsewhere. I was the chauffeur.

I've got my son's bedroom all ready to put some primer on, in preparation to painting it. I'll be out when the sun comes up, as Home Depot opens early for the contractors to go and buy stuff. Or I'll be sitting here when the sun comes up, thinking about how I really need to get to Home Depot. (Any bets on which of the two it will be?)

I'll bet on the second.

Lucky you! I had six 14 year old girls, six 11 year old girls plus 8 family members here for the festivities amidst scores of trick-or-treaters.

This year I asked my husband to take the screen out of the front screen door to be able to pass the candy out without knocking the little ones over. At first he thought I was nuts, but it worked like a charm!
