Slowly I am getting my energy back, all those drugs for that long slows a person down….which I’m sure is a good thing but I hate the feeling.  Everyday is alittle better than the last.

Staples are coming out on Monday & I’m sure that will help even more as I feel them tugging or maybe its the bandages!  Then, it will be 4 more weeks of no lifting or exercising other than walking…..which is better everyday also.

Yesterday I decided instead of having 3 boxes of goodies out in the front porch that I’d make little packages so we only have to give out one thing and can keep track of how many kids come trick or treating tonite.

So this is what I made today. Found the idea in a google search HERE.

I had found a huge pile of the brown wrapping paper in packages while pulling a box or two in the garage this spring.

Tearing the pieces for these doesn’t even make a dent in that huge pile.

I was going to stamp the greeting but all the Halloween stamps I had were TOO SMALL so I wrote with a black  Sharpie BOO! on one side and Happy Halloween! on the other.  Then, I took it all upstairs to my studio (first time in a month that I’ve been in there farther than the door!), using orange thread I zigzagged around two sides before putting 3 different treats inside, then finished sewing them all!

We are READY – Happy Halloween!!!  Weather is perfect…..
