So this last weekend my wife got to go to a Theresa Caputo show here in town. She's a huge fan! Both my wife and my stepdaughter got to go to a meet and greet prior to the show and got to meet Theresa. The day before the show, my stepdaughter treated my wife to a manicure... including "Theresa" style fake nails. Well, my wife works at a greenhouse...so long fake nails don't work so well - as she found at this week. They were so thick she couldn't cut or trim them with clippers or scissors. My solution...use the grinding wheels...so she did! LOL Oh...and Theresa actually DID read my wife during the show! It made her year I think! Oh...and my stepdaughter wore one of my wraps. When she met Theresa, Theresa said she loved her necklace! Woot Woot!! Super cool!!!! I remember when I saw Gary Numan for the first time. I was on cloud 9 at the meet and greet.
I'm guilty of filing on the genie, too. Works great.

Yesterday, I had the honor and privilege of seeing off my grandson into the bonds of Holy Matrimony. No pictures. I was so caught up, I only took a few and they didn't turn out so good. Thankfully there was a great photographer there.
Yes, they are young. But they have been living together for 2 years and have been dating for 4. They are such a great couple and are good friends. Oh my goodness, I could go on. It was so magical. I shed quite a few tears. DH was a groomsman and my other grandson was the best man. My one daughter and granddaughter were also part of the ceremony. My grandson calls me mom. I basically raised him (with help from DH ). It was such a special day. They were sooooo happy.

Crude to break in, but I use the green d-con bait blocks, we had a big rat problem over a large area a few years ago, and fixed it. Everyone around got in on it. I have a place to put them out, not in the supplied bait station, the rats and mice can get there but no one else. I get it at Walmart.

knave Good to see you here again. How are things going NW of me? beefjello I feel your pain. I have not seen or caught a rat in months in my house. Just getting about 3-4 mice weekly. Hopefully, the upcoming foundation repairs will eliminate the mice.

Those kids can't go out like that, kidding. I love young children playing dress up! The dogs getting into it. Pitt packer Ewok! I had a friend that had a dog like that. Flying monkeys, great costumes. My favorite trick-or-treaters to see at the door! (No, not my pic, none of these are, but thought I'd still share them.) King Mutt Pit lion Will see if I can come up with any more.

Doing another little show tomorrow and I had some friends of mine make these signs up for me. I think they turned out nice- and for only eleven bucks!

Yeah, Pawleys Island is getting hammered. I hope RickB is holding up ok. We made it ok and stayed at home all day. It's still raining outside. Don't know how much we got, but it's been raining over 24 hours straight. Slows down at times then gets pretty heavy. Was also gusty all day long but not too bad. Power hasn't gone off so far.

Was told to decorate for the children's party at work yesterday. So, this is what I was able to do in an hour. Fill 24 goodie bags. Each has 4 different fun sized candy bars. A ring and some stickers. Next, I had to decorate the area where the party will be. Was told to lace crepe paper through the fence, put on table cloths and decorate the tables somehow. I used a few of the rings as decorations. I didn't have time to take photos of the mini pumpkins the children will be decorating. They were on the opposite side of our place, in storage area. The Church that rents our event area for Services is doing face painting and Halloween crafts. If you have ever laced crepe paper through a chain link fence, you will understand what a pain this was. Considering the resources and time, I think it turned out OK.
