My tiny town has more events happening this year than in the past. Trick or treat, one event with games and face painting, another event around town with music and trunk or treat and movies in the theatre, plus now an outdoor movie and haunted trail. We are not participating at all.
On a different note, my stepdad was exposed at work. The guy was sitting next to him just yesterday and today they find out he’s positive. Mom and stepdad leave for Ocean City MD in the morning and they both refuse to wear masks. Yes they are assholes and I’ve told them this.

My town is doing TOT but it’s DS dad’s day, so I can’t control what happens. I’m going to talk to xh about it, but he will probably not listen to me

My neighbor stopped me when I was walking up the driveway today. In the course of things he informed me that covid will go away after the election. So I guess just hang in there another month and everything will be over. 🙄🙄
And yes he is a die hard trumper. His reason for being mad about trump not shutting up is that he didn't give Biden a chance to fumble and not be able to answer. Ugh.

Mummy dogs are pretty easy. You just buy the crescent roll sheet, cut in strips and wrap a hot dog. I have some other things saved on pinterest to do with my kids. Hold on.

I saw another rice krispie that was all green and they used black icing to make it into Frankenstein. But the monster balls will be much easier.

Pistol I just remembered that I bought battery powered candles to do floating candles for a Harry Potter themed party. I’ll have to bust those out too!

Also, my mom got me these light up eyes from walmart for $10 and I put them in the bush at the bottom of the driveway and it is bringing me immense joy right now.

I can't figure out how to upload a video but here was from earlier when I put them in there. They have a timer built in and they light up for 6 hours starting when you turn them on and then off for 18 hours and repeat.

I ordered some floating witches hats with LEDs from Amazon. The kids and I put them up last week but from a tree. They are really cute, but get tangled in the branches. hanging on a porch would look better!

Pistol that bush is awesome. It sort of reminds me of the red hairy monster with sneakers! From the bugs bunny cartoons?

I don't even know if we're having ToT. Local areas were posted but not ours. I honestly don't care. If it's a thing, we may just visit our Biden neighbors immediately around us & that's it. We're planning on doing a fire in the driveway & keeping candy out in case we get people.

Pistol thanks for the ideas! The kids would love the monster Rice Krispie balls and they would be easy for them to make.

Our city is doing trick or treat. And I think are trying to still hold their Trunk or Treat but having it be drive through or something. I don't get it.
We will probably just go to our closest neighbors that we know. The kids are young enough that 4-5 houses will be plenty.

I totally got the reference you made. 🙂

I’m watching the press conf and he only mentioned the numbers are higher than average and that him and Fran took a test today but don’t have results. That’s it, now he’s taking questions.
1495 cases (21 day avg of 1023) 88 deaths (24 avg) 82 hospitalizations (69 avg) 15 ICU admissions (11 avg)
