Creativity

Lately, I've suffered from a lack of creativity. Have you gone through that? I need to make Halloween gifts for my class, but I don't like anything that I've come up with so far. I need to catch up on some scrapbook pages, but I just can't get into it. I'm getting paid to make some candy bar wrappers for a friend to give out at her daughter's tenth birthday party, but I just want to eat the chocolate. LOL!

I think I've fallen into a rut. I keep doing the same things the same way and I need a change. I need to step out of my comfort zone and try something new. I have no idea what that something new will be, so wish me luck!

Here's a goodie for anyone else that has ever fallen into a rut...

Good or Bad?

OK, I have to know would you be the wicked witch or the good witch? I guess we all want to be the good witch, but aren't there just days when the bad witch comes out?

Here's a goodie for you..

Trick or Treat

I didn't quite understand trick or treating when I was very young. I tried to insist that I be allowed to eat my candy after every house. LOL! I told you that I had a sweet tooth!

I remember the streets being filled with families going house to house. I remember the decorations in the yards. I remember my dad standing back and watching as we walked up to a house and rang the doorbell. I remember the neighbors pretending not to know us when they opened the door. I remember getting mad when someone gave me an apple instead of chocolate. I remember going home and sorting out the "good" candy from the "bad" and in those days the "bad" candy was the kind that I didn't like. My parents always checked it over but we didn't really have to worry about someone putting something in the candy.

I think it's sad that kids today won't have those memories. The areas that still allow trick or treating mainly have it during daylight hours. Where I live the kids hit up Lincoln Road and go to the stores for their trick or treating. Then they're off the streets before the sun goes down and the adults come out to play.

When it comes to Halloween I miss the old days. Here's a couple of goodies for anyone else that misses it too...

What's your story?

Have you ever noticed how the Halloween costume you wear tells something about where you are in your life at the moment? Maybe you're feeling powerful like a superhero? Maybe you feel special like a princess? Maybe you feel a little wicked? Tell me, what's your story going to be this Halloween?

Here's a goodie to help tell your story...

For Lisa...

Lisa, here's the quote you requested. I'd love to see what you do with it. As a matter of fact, I'd love to see what anyone who snags it does with it. This blog could use some decorations and I can't think of any better decorations than your pages with my word art.

Now, here's the goodie for Lisa and anyone that fishes or knows someone who does...
