It's amazing. Life changes very quickly, in a very positive way, if you let it. --Lindsey Vonn

Happy Halloween!
It's my most favorite day of the year!

This week I've made cupcakes, treats, delivered them, went to the foot surgeon, dentist, a fall supper, movie, got Avon, sorted it, and delivered it, Firepit Friday .................

These were the treat bags I made my peeps!
Kids at work, hairdresser, a lady at the post office yesterday that was having a bad day...............

 They all included some form of this Russell Stover pumpkin chocolate, and the bigger ones had a little more!


 Finally finished Vanessa & Harleys' Halloween card!
(It's dark purple, horrible lighting!)




This was pumpkin spice chocolate I found at Michaels & made them for the top of the cupcakes, which apparently didn't make a picture! But the recipe is here!




 This is what it did Monday!
Didn't stay, but we're supposed to get more tomorrow!
It's the "S" word!

 Later this afternoon, I will go to Vanessa's to had out treats!
I'm in a basement suite, and the doorbell doesn't belong to me!
Hauling my bag of costumes up the alley!!

Firepit Friday has still been going strong as it hasn't snowed yet!
We dress warmer, and the fire is bigger!

The foot surgeon & I will talk again in 3 months.
He wants to do surgery again, I just think the screws should come out!
It's not healing; I told him that's because I'm allergic to metal, and why do you have to wear that big bracelet that says 'METAL' into the operating room if no one looks at it!?

Another dentist appointment in a week for a crown!
The movie we went to was The Intern,
with Robert DeNiro & Anne Hathaway.
Highly recommended! 

Tomorrow evening we're going to another fall supper, then to Transylvania 2
Tis the season! 

So have a great day & weekend everyone!

Hope you're all well!
Talk to you later!

Nothing will work unless you do. ---Maya Angelou

Good morning peeps!
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends!
I have made a few cards.
I'll show you them, and then you can get on with your day!

I needed 2 wedding cards, so whipped up 2 standbys!
(Mom needed one!)


 I made a Halloween wreath from a Stampin' Up kit and took it to my mom!
The color is really off here! It's all quite orange!
Look for the purple spider. It's put together with beads!


 |Kalen's Halloween card. I stopped last Sunday on my way home & had lunch with him & 2 of his room mates to the Rusty Nail Bistro, which is to the west of Grouchy Daddy's!

 My drive was beautiful!
Mother Nature was wonderful in all her Fall Splender!
Our leaves are long gone, we have such horrible winds!


 We also had to stop for this procession!
A push & pull load! It's so heavy that there's a semi at the front, and one at the back!

 Sorry the picture is crappy!
I could only find this on Pinterest!
I guess I'd have to know the trucking company! 

The kids are all away!
Vanessa & Harley are gone to a concert in Edmonton.
Kalen took my nephew Shawn & went to grammas!
This is the first time in about 2 years that I didn't have any projects at Vanessas'! 
I've been grocery shopping, filled the van with gas, I'm on my 4th load of laundry! 
The plan is to make a pie or 2, work on my Halloween bags for my peeps, maybe make a card, make my pumpkin spice pumpkin shaped chocolates for on top of my Halloween cupcakes for work, make stuffing, I bought a chicken! Peggy is coming for supper tomorrow. I also took her with me on my trip and dropped her off at her daughters!
I need to get the outside of my windows washed either later today or tomorrow morning. I got cabbage roles |& perogies from the Farmers Market yesterday, they're thawing in the fridge!
I have an easy recipe for  sugar scrub I want to try. I have a 25 lb. bag of apples sitting on my floor to do something with, and I brought the brand new coveralls home from work to pick the patch off the back!
We moved into our new (to us) shop & office.
I can probably walk there if I have to!
There was a box of brand new coveralls; if someone would pick the patch off the back, we can use them!
I might or might not have volunteered!
I have a dentist appointment Tuesday morning, and I finally (after whining) get to see the orthopedic surgeon on Oct 22!
I can live with the pain, it would just be another ache, but the swelling bothers me!I want to know what he put in there!
So this has taken me forever cause I keep getting side tracked on the internet by stuff like this!
 
Anyhoo, have a great weekend people!

Hope you're all well! Talk to ya later!!
