Good morning chicks

As you can see we now have a Holiday Challenge thread

To keep us on track I have also started a holiday recipe sticky, a tips sticky and a daily exercise challenge sticky.

Together we can make reach our goals and have a fun healthy holiday!

(okay, I am turning into a cheeleader...I need some virtual pom poms )

The Challenge starts tomorrow so everyone have fun tonight -
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Mauvais, refresh my memory. WHAT are you wearing this evening?

I am going as a belly dancer!

I am wearing a black velvet stretch top that is trimmed with silver beads, irridescent black/purple beads and silver coins a long flowing skirt trimmed with silver sequins, a purple hip scarf trimmed with silver beads and coins.

Accessories: teardrop shaped bindi with silver rhinestones on my forehead, a layered collar necklace of black/purple irridescent beads, matching earrings- with two matching bracelets that look like beaded black chainmail that start at the wrist and go into a point ten turn into a ring for your middle finger, silver toe ring, metallic purple toe and fingernail polish and smoky/sultry makeup with big red lips -big sexy hair.

Not sure what to wear on my feet yet - I am trying to find some strappy sandals that are not too high heeled.

Oh, Mauvais. *swoon* You babe, you. (picture, please!)
Hey, have you used that fabric that you bought yet?

ps Go barefoot.

Oh Mauvais that sounds just beautiful! I just love the color purple Yes, please do post some pictures.

Ellis I can't go barefoot in a bar - lord only knows what is on the floor!

Thanks sflake - I will if I get some good pics

I just answered the door to a small knight in shining armour, and his sword went right up my nose. Most unpleasant. If he hadn't been so small, I might have struck him.

Ellis, can I come sit in your front yard and just watch you deal with all the goblins that come knocking?

Mauvais, your costume sounds great!

everyone!

No, but you can come and sit on my verandah, darling. Please leave your weapons at home.

Wow! I gave out candy in my belly dance costume, but it wasn't nearly so involved. I just had my black harem pants and choli trimmed in metallic blue sequins and a purple coin scarf. Maybe if I had gone anywhere important I would have tried harder... sounds like you looked fabulous!

Well I felt fabulous anyway

Snort...sword up the nose hehehe. Ellis sorry to laugh at your injury. You should have given him tuna or something in place of the candy.

Speaking of tuna treats...last night we took Cody trick or treating, and he went to one house of college guys and they asked 'candy or spinach?' Cody played along and said spinach. He pulled out about 6 big pieces when he dumped his candy out last night.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VERY funny!!!!!

We only had 5 kids (3 groups); I was BUMMED!! Our street is too busy so not too many people come...

Mauvais - your costume sounds absolutely beautiful!

Jen - very cute!

Den - No one really comes to the house so I went out instead. How did DS like trick or treating? or are they both too old now?

Ellis - sorry you got a sword up the nose.

Hello to all of the chicks!

Well finally a quite end to a busy week. Went to a hockey game, which was fun - but we lost. Got a chance to see the Blue Man group. If you ever get a chance - GO! They were just amazing!!! Did the trick or treating thing with my sisters (a renisance bar maid, and Magenta from Rocky Horror), my nephew (Dumbo) and a friend from work (a vampire). I was Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas. We had fun. I got to see a kid I used to babysit, who is now 17, taller then me and has a girlfriend. It was so great to see him, but it made me feel old. He was only 5 or 6 when I started babysitting. Yesterday was my "little" cousin's 18th birthday. The the kids aren't kids any more.

Today I finally broken down - I got a cell phone. Mostly just in case of an emergancy - especially on the long ride to Ohio.

I am determined to get back OP too. so far - I am doing ok I guess.

Have a wonderful day girls!
