Its no secret that I hate Halloween. I post it every year and my family has heard about it for years. I thought that once my kids were grown and finding their own costumes that I was off the hook, but here I am - almost 60 years old and planning another ward Halloween party! I keep hoping no one will show up but each year it gets bigger and bigger. Hoards of children running thru the church scattering candy wrappers, costume pieces and smearing gum and makeup on the walls as they go. On top of all of that I have to come up with a costume for myself. The first year I went as an overweight Snow White, black wig and all. Hardly anyone knew who I was but the little girls loved me. I was so suprised how many wanted to take their pictures with me. The next year I wore my pajamas and everyone kept asking me who I was supose to be. I didn't really care, I was comfortable. This year I'm thinking about going as a gift wrapped box. Just think I could put a box over my head- 2 peep holes and no one has to know who I am. I could just hide out in there except for the fact that I'm in charge. I am just sure that this is my last Halloween Party (I know I said this last year) And I will do my best to make it a good one. God forgive when I whine, I have good health the world is mine.
