Catch Up

Sorry for the lack of writing, the light in the darkness was flickering for a time and needed some help to get it's strength back. Thank you Tristin and Aric for your help, Father knows I needed it for a while.

I got a great deal of work on my book done, rough draft of the 2nd one is done. It needs a lot of work before I can really do anything with it, though. I am proud that I got it written down at last. It took me long enough. :P

I spent Halloween night at home watching the new Sherlock on PBS. The night before was the town night for trick or treating. I went to Tristin's for that. We had him hanging from a gallows by a harness hidden under his shirt and Aric was a head in the "candy" container. I was the witch that killed them both. I told the kids that were old enough to be scared that the candy was in the container that had Aric's head in it (there was a hole at the bottom and in the table too, so Aric could stick his head in there while he sat in a tight position under the table). Aric would do an evil laugh and scare them. Then I would give them the candy, but for the ones that were really tiny, I just gave them the candy. Tristin would pretend to be a dummy and then say "How's it hanging?" (or something along those lines) when they walked past. A few people thought I was a statue as they went for the doorbell. We had a lot of fun, and had a lot of laughs. At the end, Tristin could not walk straight from hanging in the harness for several hours and his back was killing him. Aric's knees and neck were hurting from being cramped under the table, but we both think Tristin had it the worst. After I was out of the witch costume and Tristin and Aric had nursed their wounds, we went to my house and watched Ironman 2. We had a lot of fun and I wish Tristin would be back next year so we could do it again.
