I hope you all had a great Halloween and lots of fun collecting your sweets while trick and treating. Although most people in our area got into the spirit of things and happily dealt out tons of tooth-rotting items to the kids there were some who frankly need a dose of happy pills…
Of course it is up to the individual if they wish to participate in this tradition and those who wish not to make it clear by not putting up Halloween paraphernalia in their front windows – that makes it obvious to us parents accompanying our children that those homes are not to be approached. But we encountered those who openly advertise themselves as being a part of things and then growl at the kids when they knock on the door. One such woman did that last night – told the kids to get lost in a most unnecessary manner.
Telling kids to go away is one thing, pushing them roughly away from the door is another so when my kids came and told me about what she did I decided to show her what Halloween is all about. By the time we got back to her door she had taken down all the Halloween trappings from her front door and windows – what a sour puss – and this was only 7pm. I hope she has as much fun cleaning her front door as I had decorating it with a couple of eggs:)
She’d probably throw Santa and his reindeer out on their backsides!
