Happy Halloween.....A day late!

Yesterday was Halloween... One of Matt's favorite holidays, and he spends it sleeping on a submarine. Mona and I however, went all out. Our day started like this.

Me waking up at 5 to drive an hour to work and work 10 furiously busy hours. Mona waking up at 5 to eat/pee/poop/spend 12 hours in a crate. Since I had to work on the day of Halloween you would think I would have bought candy a few days before. Well I didn't. I figured it would be no big deal, I'd stop at the comissary on base before I went home and buy some. I mean in Stinnett you might buy 10 bags of candy and have two trick or treaters. While speaking with an ex-military lady at work yesterday she kind of had me worried when she said "You have to have candy.. If your living on base you'll have lots of kids...People bring their kids in from outside of the base to get candy" Yeah sure like this lady knows anything. I finish working my day, buy Mona a costume and drive my hour home. Run into the comissary to discover that they have NO halloween candy left. None. I could have bought M&Ms that were not wrapped. Seriously they had nothing. I had to buy candy bars. I had a friend coming over later, so I knew I"d have more candy eventually. I start to drive down my road to my house and pass seriously no less than 5 swarms of people. I pull in, attempt to put Monas costume on her and open my candy. After two knocks on my door, I was out. Luckily Dayna came to save the day. We had enough candy for about 30 more minutes. I even passed out twinkies. haha! Mona only escaped once and some nice man caught her for us! So Mona was a pig, I guess my costume was a frazzled lady with not enough candy!

Hope everyone had fun! I am so sad I'm missing the Halloween bash in Granburry!!!
