So I have been crazy busy lately. I have wanted to write a few times and also get to my LOL spanking but there just has not been any time or means to do so. Sometimes I wish that there was more time in a day then again I wish the days were shorter LOL.
Anyway my weekend started out really really busy with last minute preps for Halloween. We were hoping to have a few more bucks for some interesting costumes and decor but had to do with what we had, which worked out really well. We have new neighbors as well with a little boy that has become friends with my son and i have become friends with the grown ups in the house as well. As everyone is they are also struggling to get by but a little more then we are though. Her son wanted to be Darth Vader I believe or a star wars guy and my youngest wanted to be Harry Potter. On Thursday or Wednesday maybe we realized there was no way we could swing the money for the costumes and knew we had to figure out something quickly.
For my son when we were sitting outside chit chatting she got in her storage and pulled out a broom. It was Harry Potters broom and she gave me a Dracula cape to borrow. When one of his other friends saw that he had the broom and wanted to be Harry Potter he gave him the scarf that Harry wears to use as well and looked for the real robe that he wore. he was Harry Potter one year and had the outfit. They never were able to locate the robe but my son was happy with what he was given and was really excited about being harry potter. I had already priced the costume and was planning on getting it if we had the money it would have been around 30 dollars for the robe and glasses. The glasses though were separate and only 5 dollars so I told Thomas to pick up the glasses since we had all the other stuff pretty much top be able to pull off a Harry Potter. I also sent him to get black hairspray as well. We ended up drawing the lighting bolt scar on his forehead with lip liner. In the end he made a pretty good Harry Potter even if most of his costume was borrowed.
The other little boy wanted to be an army man and Thomas had some camo face paint from Amtgard that we let them borrow and my son had a camo tee shirt. So we decided to dress him in camo and then as we were brainstorming ideas for this and since he wanted to be a sniper more specificly we went to the woods and had the kids collect leaves to attach to a hat. The process though became quite long and aggravating but with three adults working on it his dad was able to get it done. We then grabbed some of the creepy cloth that we had to place over his face like a sniper as well. In the end he was the cutest little sniper you ever did see. LOL.
When i was at the mall with Katia getting her school girl outfit for Guavaween I had noticed that they had a trick or treat so others can eat thing going on from 5-7 on Saturday. So I decided to go ahead and take the kids to that. All they had to do was bring in a can food item for a food drive and they were able to trick or treat through out the mall. When the other kids that are friends with mine heard about it they wanted to go as well. Though I could not fit some in the car since I had my two and the neighbors little boy I was able though to bring along the boy that loaned my son his scarf and his sister. His sister the night before was saying that she didn't have a costume this year and was going to dress up with whatever she could find. She then mentioned that she wanted to be a pirate for a few years but again they struggle as well. So she hasn't been able to be one. I told her that I had a pirate costume she could borrow as long as her parents approved since it was an adult costume. So we got it out tried it on and I took her to her parents to see if they approved. It actually looked really good on her and was not bad at all. They approved so she got to be the pirate she wanted to be.
We had alot of fun going through the mall trick or treating but since we were heading to Guavaween at 6:30 I had to go to the mall with the kids in my school girl outfit. Thank goodness it was Halloween and it wouldn't raise any eyebrows dressing as a schoolgirl. LOL Though when I walked outside one of my neighbors yelled out oh my you look hot! I was quite embarrassed. by 6 o'clock when the kids were done my feet were hurting I had taken off my shoes since they were new and hurting a long time before and walked around the mall in my stockings LOL. it was eventful.
Shortly after returning home Katia arrived and we headed to Guavaween. She and i were almost matching in our costumes and we were both excited about going to Guavaween. Thomas of course was dressed in his suit as the principle and carried around a ruler LOL. We had so much fun even if the parade this year sucked big time. Katia and I had alot of fun running amuck through the streets of Ybor and having Thomas chasing us with the ruler. A few times we even plotted to try to get the ruler from him. At one point we did manage it briefly and were passing it to each other before he caught it in the air and proceeded to spank us with it. Guavaween was a blast even if my back and feet were killing me. LOL. Here's a picture of us showing the camera our best side LOL.
Amongst all that excitement those last few days we still had a haunted house scene to do. and i had to help Thomas with that and he enlisted the help of some teenagers around the area for painting and things though only the pirate girl was able to really be of the best help. LOL We managed to get it all set up and I took my youngest and the sniper and the pirate girls brother with me to head to trick or treating in Joyce's neighborhood. It is a good area and ever since I meet Thomas we have taken the kids there for trick or treating. I had also read in the paper that the Brandon Mall had trick or treat at there mall on Sunday from 4=6 and so we went there first. The boys had fun and were tired even before the night came were they could really trick or treat. We left my oldest and Thomas at the house for the haunted scene and to scare the children and give them candy. We returned around 830 after the boys were pooped from all the trick or treating and had a bag full of candy. Thomas had said that he only really had about five groups of kids so we had lots of candy left from that as well. Our neighborhood really doesn't have alot of children and the ones it does have are older teenage kids that I don't think really went trick or treating. but it was still fun for all.
Sunday was not the last of my running around on Monday I had to get up and use the car so I could pay a few bills. I was also paying off the Xbox and getting a new computer for us. That proved to be fun as I ended up having to go to the rent a center three times before the computer was ready to take home. We did get a brand new one out of the box though so it was a good deal. The school also ended up calling me and I had to pick up my oldest who was having pains. Since two of my children have kidney problems any time they have pains in their sides it is cause for concern. Since I got him early as soon as the youngest got home we headed back to Brandon to pick up the computer and Thomas. Thomas also had to run by Joyce's to do something so it was around 530 till we headed back to our house. at this time though traffic really sucks and it sucked even more when we got to our exit and found that it was closed off and we had to go the opposite direction and turn around. Traffic was really slow and I was hurting plus I had taken a pain pill Saturday night after Guavaween because I was hurting so much. I couldn't take one on Sunday since I knew I had to drive Monday. So I was in alot of pain and grouchy as it was. My mood though quickly went from mad at traffic to feeling guilty for being so mad about the slow traffic when we passed by a really bad accident near the exit we were supposed to take. As we were passing by we noticed that there was a body covered up and a bicycle in the road along with a shoe and the bikes wheel strewn across the road. It must have just happened as there were plenty of cops and the body and everything was still as it was. They did put a white sheet over the body but my kid and Thomas saw the blood coming out from the sheet. My youngest I don't think saw but my oldest said something the next day about how he will never get the image of the body and the blood pouring out from the sheet out of his head. We ended up getting home around 645 and I had a message from my sons tutor that he had missed us. I totally forgot that it was Monday though and he has tutoring on Mondays and Thursday from 530 till 630 so he missed his tutor.
I have had so many things to do and have had my oldest home sick with me so that rules out being able to do any videos this week. I am hoping he returns to school tomorrow and I can get a few scenes done and the LOL spanking. Last night since the pain was getting worse i decided to take him to the ER to get checked. It isn't his kidneys so we are good. I have to make a follow up appointment for him though. I think that he has a nasty cold and the pains are just muscle aches who knows. But he was checked to make sure it wasn't anything bad.
There has been so much going on lately that I cant even think sometimes. LOL I spent Tuesday cleaning the house and taking down the Halloween decorations and putting the few Thanksgiving ones up. After Thanksgiving it will be the Christmas ones. I will be glad when January gets here. LOL
Thomas had wanted me to join him Wednesday at lunch for a attitude adjustment he has been meaning to give me for awhile now but having my son home I couldn't. So last night after we returned from the hospital and I got online for awhile and was laying in bed reading the newspaper he grabbed the wedding gift and proceeded to tell me to remove my clothes and lay across his lap. Of course it took me awhile and I tried to get out of it but he said he wasn't going to wait any longer. he did ask if I wanted to go out to the car so that the kids wouldn't wake up and hear. Though I declined. They were both knocked out and I was to tired to want to go out to the car anyway. So he gave me a dose of the wedding gift. And took a picture probably for his blog as well. We then got in bed and went to sleep. This morning though at 6 in the morning I was grouchy as it was a late night so I wasn't moving when he woke me up and when he said to get up I yelled at him. He had a paddle in his hand since he was leaving for work and I think meeting someone tonight after work for a discipline session so he took the paddle and warmed up my backside telling asking me what i learned last night about the attitude. I finally got up though I am just not a morning person.
I am hoping to get in a play session soon. Katia and I are reaching for Wednesday this week though I have to find out if it is an early release day for the kids first. I promise I will write more as soon as this craziness I call life settles a little bit LOL.
Before I go though I will leave you with a few pictures from a recent video that is now available at both our stores.
