"There's a big round moon in a dark, dark sky. The chickens are nervous. Witches, wizards, robots, and an alarmingly enormous mouse (eek!) are prowling around town tonight, and it's up to the chickens to get to the bottom of it -- that is, if they can uncover their eyes long enough!"--

We had Gabby from Gabby‘s Dollhouse & a gorilla with his banana (our dog is a good sport, this was my son‘s idea). Luckily the rain held off & our first Halloween in Boston didn‘t involve snow or freezing temps.

@quietjenn Wow! Thanks so much for this awesome #hauntedhollowswap I‘m excited for all the books and don‘t know where to start. Love the bookmarks, candles and especially the string lights. I‘m going to hang them up for tomorrow. The pencils, case, keychain and everything is perfect. And the snacks, yum! Happy Halloween to you!

Some recent spooky reads with the kiddo! Have y'all read any Black Lagoon books? They crack me up 😂

Plus, two movies (Hannibal Rising & Midnight Meat Train, which was absolutely wild), two episodes of Midnight Mass (good so far), first four episodes of The Ghost and Molly McGee (very cute), and I'm currently rewatching Nitemare b4 Xmas for the 100th time.

I meant to post a picture of my Halloween shelf on Saturday to celebrate the holiday, but I think it also works for those of us in the U.S. to symbolize our collective dread as the votes are counted 😱😨

A huge thank you to @4thhouseontheleft @Clwojick & @StayCurious for organizing their respective readathons.
Last week I added 10,632 points to #TeamSlaughter 🔪
That‘s a grand total of 30,210 points. 👻🎃

And here‘s my last week‘s points for #Scarathlon2020 I had a great ti@d reading for #TeamSlaughter This week wasn‘t as productive as I‘d hoped-read a lot of hours (22) but didn‘t get much finished. I finished a Halloween related book (Ruthless Halloween) watched 5 scary shoes/movies and finished 3 stories in a True Crime Anthology (Unsoeakable Acts) made progress in a couple other books but that‘s about it. @Clwojick

kamoorephoto I had a hard time keeping the Pennywise T-shirt and Funko away from my son; he wanted to keep them! Enjoy the goodies and the candle. I was tempted to send more for the kitties but I was worried about mailing stuff. So glad you love your box; I enjoyed putting it together 🙂 4y

Happy fall, y‘all! Didn‘t rake leaves today because it was a little rainy (that‘s my excuse 😂).
Update for #scarathlon #teamslaughter
Week 2 check-in: 568 points
Total points: 904 points. @Clwojick

Clwojick oh my god! Raking must take you hours! I can hardly see any grass! 4y
Scochrane26 @Clwojick Yes, it‘s a big job. If I wait long enough though, the winds will blow the leaves all over & I don‘t have to do as much. 😂 Usually it‘s about 15 bags. 4y
Texreader Wow!!! That‘s a ton of work! And good job on points!!! 4y
Scochrane26 @Texreader It is a lot of work, but I love the trees. Sometimes I pay my pastor‘s teens to rake or my dad helps. (edited) 4y
Texreader @Scochrane26 When we bought our house we years ago it had five pecan trees. We‘re down to two 🙁 but we still have the same issue. Some years we get a lovely bunch of pecans, my fave nut, so bonus! 4y

I‘m having a hard time reading anything this month, I had a really busy week with things at home and with the family so not many points racked up but I did start A Discovery of Witches and am very intrigued so I‘m hoping it‘ll kick start my reading again.

What happens when you forget that you‘ve already put together a box for your #hauntedhollowswap person? You put together a second, then find the first. So @Insightsintobooks gets a double box of goodies heading out in the mail on Thursday. Hope you enjoy it!

I‘ll be over here, cleaning off my desk, which I apparently needed to do earlier. Who knows what other wonders I might find?

@wanderinglynn

Insightsintobooks Lol! Thank you so much!! I can't wait to get it!!! 4y
wanderinglynn Oh, had you told me, I might have asked you to keep it just in case we needed a spare package. But that‘s okay. 🎃 4y
PurpleTulipGirl @wanderinglynn It didn‘t even occur to me! Thanks for letting me know that could be an option. 4y
wanderinglynn Yes, always an option for swaps & your swap host will love you for it. Because sadly, sometimes participants don‘t follow through on their promise to send a box (hence my check-in posts and emails). So swap hosts often have to scramble to get replacement boxes sent out. 💜 4y
