Remembe...good for you in the job department, Susan! Remembering customer's names would be really hard for me too. <br /><br />I used to have fun with my kids at Halloween. They love costumes and carving a pumpkin is cool. Guess I've gotten old and cranky about this holiday, because I quit doing it as soon as Maggie was old enough for me to get out of it.organistsandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127502429931791166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34185942.post-89028328341279476292011-10-28T15:22:39.740-05:002011-10-28T15:22:39.740-05:00"(They keep telling me I'm too hard on my..."(They keep telling me I'm too hard on myself.)"<br /><br />You're kidding. I would have never believed it. (And now I'm kidding.) :-)<br /><br />Re: the pumpkin (every time I type "pumpkin" it comes out "pumpking" at first and I have to go back and delete the "g"), you could just do like us and not have one (gasp!). I bought some candy and we will give it out if anyone comes to the door, but there will be no pumpking, sigh, pumpkin, or other types of Halloween or harvest decorations to serve as an invitation to trick-or-treaters. It's not that we have a philosophical or religious objection to Halloween. We let our older kids dress up and trick-or-treat when they were younger. But I have never much cared for the holiday and now I have a child (my youngest) who hates it and says he will spend Halloween night in his bedroom so as not to see the trick-or-treaters. So I am not very motivated to do much of anything Halloween-y, to say the least!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04817680463922038375noreply@blogger.com
