Party till the cows go home!

More grey skies today and we are still under self imposed quarantine up here on the hill. The girls are going completely cuckoo, and so am I. I managed to slip out for a couple of hours today to run errands (thank you, Mom!) and I don't remember ever being so glad to go grocery shopping before!

L has been in rare form. Yesterday she wrote on the computer monitor with an ink pen (luckily for her, it was the old computer.) Today she wrote on a dining room chair. She also locked herself in the bathroom and combed a bar of soap until there were nice soap shavings all over the floor.

I dodged the crazy Trick-or-Treat crowds in town today on my way to the Library. We don't go until Saturday, and apparently we will brave the wave of H1N1 for the sake of sweets and our sweeties. I finally finished the costumes yesterday, the pumpkins have been carved, and the toasted pumpkin seeds nearly all devoured.

Last night the cows got out of who-knows-where and trampled all over our newly planted lawn. I'm not feeling particularly forgiving of the incident either. Anyone up for a cook-out?
