I think I’ve done pretty good with this series so I’m going to give myself a break for missing yesterday. Long work day and it was still one of those weeks. So glad it’s Saturday. Finally.
So, let’s just move on to today’s question.
Have any Halloween parties or events to attend? Or that you already attended? Did you dress up for them? And if so, what was your costume? Costumes you’ve worn in the past?

My answers: I have an event to attend tonight. A painting party with a costume contest. However, unlike my stylish game avatar in the picture, real life Jean’s costume is a bit (a lot) more dull. Hardly making an effort to tell the truth. I’m wearing an oversized jack-o-lantern tee-shirt and some black tights with black shorts. Planning to pull my hair up (kinda like the picture but more on top) and wrap some green ribbon around it for “leaves.”
Not sure why but I’ve never been much into the dressing up for Halloween/parties. Maybe it’s emotional scarring from those 70’s plastic masks that made breathing and seeing a bit difficult. I was Fred Flintstone one year in those times! Fun. A witch once or twice. And in my early 20’s one time I dressed up as a scarecrow at work.
For the most part, the preschool parties are pajama parties. So I have some snoopy themed Halloween pajama bottoms (my favorites because they have pockets!). And a pair of moon and stars type pajama bottoms. As well as my tinkerbell ones but I seldom wear those if I work on party days at preschool. First, they are too hot any more (crazy weather) and it’s hard to pass up on pockets especially at work.
I’m not a HUGE fan of costume parties. We did go last year to a Halloween party – I was Mrs. Claus and hubby was Where’s Waldo, but it was boring and we skipped it this year. I much prefer to see the kiddos all dressed up and participated in the downtown TRUNK or TREAT instead. My costume was an orange and black plaid shirt 😀
I like to go and see everyone else’s costumes rather than dressing up myself. It’s always a lot more fun to see the kids dressed up for Halloween!
