I have been very busy with family in town. I have been sick. I have been training to be a Girl Scout Leader. I have been volunteering in my kids classes at school. I have been working a little here and there.

I have collected some things to blog about, when I have time to take the pictures.

I am very interested in this new Skull Vodka from Mr. Akroyd, I'm a sucker for the package!

I promise to write as soon as I get the pictures taken and my company leaves and I get my halloween decorations up (I have more of these than I do x-mas). I will be back soon......until then learn some history. I'll post the other volumes as time permits.
