the little moosie wants to get in on the fun!
But, he’s not the only one . . .
 (click for larger version) The Girl decked out in MOM’s old cheerleading outfit. Heh. She even did a Halloween cheer for us.
Here she is again – with younger sister/princess/unicorn rider:Â 
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnddddddddd – to round out the trio . . .
 A Boy and his sword 
That took care of group #1. Admiration and pictures freely given/taken and they were off to their next spot. They’ll be good and sugared up by tomorrow, huh?
Then came group number two – I can always count on having at least 7 trick-or-treaters each year.

a Jedi, a Ladybug, and an elephant – oh, my! – wait, who’s that skully kinda guy in there?
Ladybug’s kiddos ran through, got hugs and candy and skedaddled. Nice to see you, too. Don’t eat all your candy in one sitting!
love ya!
ICE
ICE, ICE
ICE, ICE, ICE BABY
Sigh . . . it’s coming . . . buuuuuuuuuuttttt
the future’s so bright . . . .
have a wonderful week!
So, awhile back I mentioned being tired . . . and then the Ladybug challenged me to tell you why in her comment.
Now that I am recovering, that is, not quite as tired, I thought I would let you know what I’ve been up to – in addition to working a 40 hour schedule.
Each weekday morning I get up at 5 am, check email, and then drive over to the Kenai High School pool to meet ms. Ladybug. From 6:30 to 7:45 or so she swims laps while I walk half laps in the water. I can only do half laps because I’m just 5’4″ after all. 😉
My ankles and knees won’t allow me to walk on dry land – at least not fitness walking. Walking in water is GREAT exercise. You get the benefits of walking, PLUS you get a harder workout because you are pushing against all that water volume.
It’s been two weeks now and I can tell the difference in how I feel now when I get out of the pool compared to then when I got out of the pool. For one thing, it’s not nearly as hard to PULL myself up the steps and out of the pool now as it was then. (gravity works, by the way!) So that is a good thing. Also, I’m not nearly as sore now as I was that first week. Although . . . my left hip has been bothering me. It feels better when I get up and move around, so I’m trying hard not to just sit and get stiff.
Also making sure I get all the water I should be drinking.
So, thanks, Ladybug! And, yes, you are right. I should have joined you a long time ago. But, that’s in the past. We’ll just keep working on the future. 😉
This is just RIGHT UP YOUR ALLEY, my girl!!! Thanks to Angela at Fluid Pudding for the link . . .
are you ready for this?
No, I mean are you REALLY ready for this?
