It's comforting to see that I am not the only one who is down to the last minute on things. My party is the 22nd as well, and I'm also pretty stressed. My costumes are ready (doing a costume change this year) I'm ordering pizza and wings as the 'main food' so im not having to worry about that. inside decor is 95% done
Issues--- ALOT of strong wind lastnight, so I gotta redo all of the outside, what a mess!!! Luckily, it should only take an hour or so.
I still have to make 'dirt cups' (i didnt want it done too early because they might start to dry out (the cake part)
I STILL have to find prizes for the costume categories, which is-
sexiest
scariest
most original
funniest
overall best
----I just don't know what to do yet...I was thinking for sexiest, since itll be a female, a pumpkin candle??
But I don't know what to get the others.
I do still have to buy the alcohol!- I don't like to get the beer to early or else it goes 'skunky' i guess, I don't drink beer personally.
All the liquor and mixers
Also just got one more prop, and i had forgot about it so now i have nowhere to put it! Everything is full already.
Cleaning is my main concern....got laundry all done yesterday so saturday after our showers i can do one load of everything and itll all be done.
Gotta scour bathroom, which i did a few days ago, but i want it freshly cleaned
still have to move our AirConditioner! *which my hubby was sposed to do about one month ago, u know how men are!*
But im not as stressed as lastyear ..Lastyear i was decorating 10 minutes before our first guest showed!
THis year, Im taking friday off so that I can be WELL prepared ahead of time. If a dedicate the rest of today when i get home (4pm) all day tomorrow and all day satuday until 6pm, when i put on my costume, I hopefully will be prepared. *fingers crossed* though because I just found out his brother isn't going to come and help because he has to wait for his g/f to get outta work and pick her up..
