BOO!
Holy Crap! This has been the longest week of my life and it's only Monday! Doing the classroom Halloween circuit along with Craig's work Halloween thing, trying to have a somewhat healthy meal and carving the fricken' pumpkins we forgot to carve over the weekend, I'm fucking beat. Let's not forget the actual trick-or-treating. Holy Hell, they got a lot of candy! Then I look at my blog that hasn't been updated in almost a week and I feel bad.
Boy, that Catholic guilt thing will stay with you for a long, long time! On a different note...
I had a nice little Mom memory/love thing happen today. Well, as you might know my mom died almost two years ago. I inherited a lot of her clothes. Today I decided to put on a Halloween sweatshirt of hers. When I grabbed it, I smelled it. It has a very faint smell of mom, Shalimar and something else I can't describe. Not a bad smell, a memory smell, if you know what I mean. Anyway, I put it over my head to put it on and I pushed my arm through the sleeve and out popped a Kleenex from the cuff. I had to laugh! My mother used to blot her nose or lips and then stuff her Kleenex up her sleeve just in case she or anyone else needed it. This may seem gross to some, but I always thought it was cute. I knew if I sneezed or unexpectedly burst into tears, my mom had me covered, out would come a tissue from her sleeve.
Anywho, it was a great way to start off this insanely busy day!!!
