Halloween Party

For the first time in a few years we have decided not to do the halloween party thing for the town I live in.

I was hoping someone else this year someone else would pick up the slack and do somethng,but it didn't happen

That's pretty sad Yorkie. I didn't get to go any parties this year, I was working the midnight shift....

The neighbour and I have done them for the last 3 years,we also do the 4th of July and I own the big decorations that go up on the light poles at christmas,but nope no one wanted to do anything this year.

Frankly it pisses me off

I don't do parties.

That is pretty shitty of them to do nothing.

There's always a party at my house on Halloween.
Come on over.

I'm off work at 6.

last year we had kids come from 2 towns away to see what we did this time

Now I am feeling guilty because I opted out this year

They can't expect you to do it every year. Should be take turns with others.

apparently no one else is interested and now it is to late to do anything grrrr

Don't feel guilty yorkie, you do a lot for your community.
Why didn't you do a Halloween party this year though? I know how much you like Halloween.

You could do a Halloween in November party if you still want to do it.

I think it is because I was just tired Jersey,we did a lot this summer in my yard and the neighbours,I have been working at city hall a lot and doing other things in the community


maybe just a bit of burn out

For our neighbourhood Canada Day fireworks and things, they take donations in the park for next years. Maybe you could do that when you throw the parties so it cuts the cost down for whoever does it. Might have more people interested if it's cheaper.

the neighbours and I and that is just the back ally neighbours have paid for all of it out of pocket,4th of july,halloween,and the big stuff that goes up for the town on christmas

Last year the previous council and mayor decided to auction off the towns christmas ornaments that go on the light poles down main. I bought them all back and then the neighbour and I stripped them down redid them,reshaped them and had the power company hang them for us

I don't think it would kill people to throw 5 bux each at you for doing all that stuff for them.

Me too! Yorkie, I am sorry that no one else seems to think it is important to step up to the plate.

It isn't about the money,it is about the fact that some help would be appreciated,we are already getting the christmas stuff out and checking all the lights and redoing some of them

DId mention it at a meeting and everyone said "thanks" so very helpful them

If it wasn't for assholes, who would we get mad at?

Interesting costume choice.....

just a few rolls of toilet paper lol

All this talk about Halloween and I realized I didn't have a pumpkin.
I went to the Farmers Market in my Jammies.
You'd think people have never seen a lady in pink frog jams before.
Met a nice lady named Rachael, we picked out pumpkins in the dark together.
She said she'd meet me there next year to pick out pumpkins and she'll wear her PJ's too.

and this is what you get when you pick pumpkins in the dark.



This one's white and blue??

the white and blue one is awesome Jersey,save the seeds and plant them next year.

Okay I caved and we did some decorating for the kids,nothing elaborate like we have done in the past though

When the kids are all done I am going out for the rest of the evening

You can kinda see the witch in there. Not fun to do with the wrong tools.
