I survived

another night of Trick or Treat!! I'm always solo that night because the fire department patrols the town to keep the little ghosts and goblins (these days more like the power rangers and princesses) safe. Mike came along and picked up Laiken after about an hour and she helped patrol the rest of the evening. The kids had fun, but you can tell they don't walk a whole lot, but ride their bike about everywhere. I think they were more tired than I was. I'll put up pictures as soon as I get them downloaded. Yesterday we did a marathon clean of about half the house, the rest will have to wait until tomorrow. Mike and the older three are butchering a hog today so I'm cleaning out the freezer to get ready to stock up. We still have about 1/4 of the cow and 14 chickens so it'll be tight getting the hog in there too. The bacon and hams won't be ready for about two weeks though so we'll be having chicken a few times to make more room. Since the freezer is in the laundry room, I'm cleaning that out as well. What a job!! Oh well, it always makes me feel better to be tackling some sort of project. Just seems like I end one only to find another couple dozen waiting!! Oh! I forgot I have a cake in the oven and I just heard my timer so more later
