Lol Mitzi. I was wondering what I was going to do this Halloween becuase hubby has to work. My inlaws are coming up and I was going to go with them to take the kids around the neighborhood. I decided to fill a bowl up with dum dums and smartees and leave a sign saying, "take two". I feared that my house would become unpopular and nobody would come here next year (and i didn't want to be left with the crappy candy), so I am going to stay home and give out candy and my inlaws will take the kids.
If all else fails...buy the crappy candy. Hey..if it keeps you on a diet all the power to you!

I always look forard to this time of year. Three years ago, my son was divorced. He is our only child and is 26. To make a long story short, my ex-DIL had an affair with a man 20 years older then her. She thought she was pregnant but told only me, letting me think it was my sons, of course. We went an bought a pregnancy test and she said it was negative.
A few weeks later, my son caught them together. She disappeared for 4 days and I believe she had an abortion.It was very hard on him and us. I could not believe she used me that way and let me think that this baby was my sons.
Anyway, as I was licking my emotional wounds, I got a call one day from a neighbor I only knew from saying hello.
She was pregnant and having problems and found my name in the phone book. I ran over there and she was having contractions at 7 months. She was just crying and crying, she was so scared. I got her on the couch and put her feet up. Just then, a friend arrived to take her to the dr.
The dr put her in his car and rushed her to the hospital...a half an hour later, she had a 4 pound beautiful baby girl, two months early.
Since my neighbors own mother lived up North, I kind of became the baby's "Florida grandma". I have babysat for her since she was 3 months old. I remember her first Halloween, dressed as a pumpkin, there was Mickey Mouse, then a rabbit and last year, a little witch.
So, I have my digital camera ready to take picture of "my baby", Clarissa. She even calls me Mimi. I will always believe God put her there because I took what my ex-DIL di so hard. She's just an angel.
