So yes, I went trick or treating yesterday, but to our surprise I think only two people commented on our age. A few people I think where kind of upset to see us probably and so they skimped on the candy when we came to the door, by giving us one piece out of the entire full bowl of theirs. On the other hand lots of people were somewhat really impressed with our costumes. I know we tried quite a bit on our costumes and walking about twenty blocks to get candy is a lot of work, especially if you are with a few *ahem* slow walkers. Saw some pretty interesting Jack O'Lanterns, but couldn't take a pic of all of them.

So November is officially here and I've got to say I just got into the habit of writing October instead of September, and now that effort can be thrown out the window as well. Ordered some Russian films over the weekend, will see how fast they can get to the library I go to.
Will probably be posting picture of my mask tomorrow, and I've got to say glitter glue has partially failed me, because halfway through trick or treating my glitter red lips on my mask fell off. Another thing I might add is that if you ever buy a feather boa from Hobby Lobby make sure it doesn't stain. That's what happened with the one I got and at the end of the night my neck was a greenish blue color along with my hands.
Once upon a time in a land far far away lived a group of children who had no idea what to do with their lives until they grew up. There were 10 of them and each decided one day to go out on their own and find a profession that they enjoyed.
After breaking off, they searched far and wide for something that was pleasant to do. They spent years and years perfecting their specialization. They had now become young adults that where fit enough to thrive on their own. However they all missed each other, so one by one they headed back to their home. Once all 10 assembled there they were surprised at each others skills. They spent hours telling their journeys to one another until there was nothing else they could tell. None of them had practically anything in common. So they decided to split up again for a few years, only to meet again at their childhood home for an update.
Once again they wandered off and continued to live as if the meeting had never happened, only with the future meeting date in the back of their developing minds. They met new people and developed new sets of skills, some of them being the ones that the others had already gained. At this next meeting they all wanted to impress one another so when the date came they all gathered. They where almost all the same, with the same skill sets and trains of thought. None of them liked this at all, being copies of each other.
So before they departed they decided that they should choose what their mind wanted as well as their hearts. Their next meeting would be in twenty years when they were all in their mid- thirties. Some of them gained families while others stayed alone in search for the perfect partner. When they met again one had passed away. They all grieved together for the one they had lost. On this sad note they departed to make the world a better place on their lost friend. Not thinking of when to meet next and who might be gone by then.
Another thirty years had passed when they decided to meet again, most of them grandparents. However this time around two more were missing and their loved ones told their story. These gatherings got more more somber, so they decided that instead of being caught up in grief they would enjoy what they had left. They all stayed together until one by one each one pasted to the next life.
When there was only one left, on their death bed they remembered all their friends and all the stories everyone had. If only we were immortal, would we have all the time in the world to enjoy those journeys together. With their final breath the last memories and thoughts exited with the air, somewhere far off in the distance 10 children decided to go their separate ways.
THE END.
Please leave some feedback it would be much appreciated.
P.S. You are never too old to trick or treat.
