    Sounds like my days off. In order to keep the peace, I have to keep whittling away at the honey-do list so I can have time to work on Halloween stuff. Starting Monday, I have two weeks vacation though so that should take the pressure off....yeah right!

    This coming weekend is the first one we have that we don't have anything planned - so we supposedly are going to "relax" as well.

    We have to:
    vacuum
    dust
    sweep and mop
    clean 2 bathrooms top to bottom
    laundry
    mow and edge
    grocery shop
    decorate inside of house for party (including changing out curtains, bulbs, cobwebbing, etc...)
    test black light effects for bathroom
    make bloody hand print tablecloth
    finish menu planning and purchase supplies
    put up graveyard fence and tombstones
    fix outdoor lighting
    finish stirring witch
    put up the rest of the outdoor decorations
    clean back porch and patio and string lights
    test fogger

    I am very much looking forward to Halloween and our party, but I really miss sleep.

    The entire month of Oct has me very busy with things. There's something planned every weekend.

    Work, work, work...I travel for work so I'm out of town quite often.
    Haunted Castle (local annual attraction) this weekend
    Gun show (local annual show) this weekend
    Test fog machines
    Work on tombstone epitaphs
    finish 3 websites I'm working on
    Halloween party prep (Oct 27) It's at someone else's place this year, but still have things to prep.
    Finish fence-post connectors for PVC fence
    Family driving down from Kansas City (@ 4 hrs away) to visit for a long weekend and see the H'ween decor, so have to do all the normal cleaning and prep for house guests. About 6-7 people coming.

    and more...I like staying busy

    And here on my agenda for the 25th is to drive around looking for folks to donate limbs towards our scarecrows (2 truckloads). :lol:

    If you drive from Utah to Georgia, you can have all the limbs you want.

    Got the limbs picked up and dumped. Lucky me, it was only 3 loads.
    I mowed. I edged. I ran the leaf blower.

    Then I had to do real work, tedious paperwork.
    Then, I came home and spent time on Monster.com looking for better job.

    Then I put up my cemetery fence and started the lighting. I set up my HHIAB. I am psyched!

    And that's it. About to clean the inside of the house, or at least do what I can.
