Ouch!    :-[

This thread has gone off in a decidedly negative direction, at least from my point of view. I may have to do some moderating here, just to save myself!  ;)

Steve,
You are just too much but I have to say you do look  like you could be Phyl's  slightly less feminine sister! ;D  I have to agree with her the upper lip and chin wax would do a lot for the costume.  ;D

Happy Halloween everyone ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

well, me thinks that since Steve-llis is going to dress as moi (ah, such an honor!) for Halloween.. and since we booked his facial and Brazilian waxing, why not continue to the leg wax? Yep, a hairless Steve-llis will then be my twue twin sista' :D

Here's a pic of what Pop Love makes fer a true trick or treat breakfast for his grandscallywags and me!


He made some pretty good ghosts, too!

And here's on of me and Thing 1 and Thing 2 on our way off to pillage and plunder the neighborhood!


I started off with a really cool skull mask on, but it scared the pants offa the lil one and he made me take it off.  Now the big one is obsessed with "Pirate Skeletons" and I told him a bedtime story about one who had a girlfriend who was a ghost and they lived on a deserted island.  Next year he wants to be a pirate skeleton!  Pop put the skull mask on all week-end and chased them around the yard and the woods with it on. We had a blast!

My life is so different without the dreadful headaches--three years ago I wouldn't have dreamed of a week-end like this.  Thank you Neurontin and Topamax!!!!!!!!  I still was pretty achey yesterday and today, but nothing like it could have been or used to be. 
 

A Halloween weekend with the grandkids is now a huge event.  My gratitude for small stuff like this is immeasurable!!!

Here's to hope for all of you out there suffering from headaches like I did--there is relief out there--it just takes time and persistance. Never give up!!!

Love ya!!

Capt Deb
