Halloween Spirit

These past two weeks, as I walk the dogs thru the hood, I’ve been loving the decorations that the neighbors are displaying in anticipation for Halloween. To celebrate the upcoming holiday, some front yards are decorated scary. Some are cute. Some are both scary and cute which is confusing but still awesome. I see blow up Draculas and ghosts and skeletons galore. It’s quite charming to see everyone getting into the spirit for this candy-filled holiday.

My Helpers

When I first got married I was taught early on that I would need help around the house because of the hours my hub would be putting into his career. Since I had never had to hire anyone before that, I began practicing my hospitality skills on anyone who would come into my home and help me. Whether it was a plumber, a gardener, a designer, a housekeeper, a painter, handyman, a/c repair person, etc. I practiced looking them in the eyes and remembering their names.
