Dear Halloween Hangover,

Let me start this with saying... not that kind of hangover. Halloween is one of my most favorite holidays. I get to dress up. I get to eat candy. I get to watch scary movies. And I get to do some pretty fun things with some pretty fun people. And now it is over. And I still feel sick from the treats I ate yesterday. My work had an awesome party... which lasted all day. Starting with pumpkin carving contest... I did not carve mine, I painted and rhinestoned it. A little later a few games like the doughnut on a string and shake the ping pong balls out of a Kleenex box while it is attached to your hips. After that, a costume contest... obviously a must on Halloweeny. Then we all ate pizza and drank sodas while watching Hocus Pocus. Besides all that there were buckets or candy, filled to the brim, ALL DAY and EVERYWHERE. I ate more candy than I have in the last three months and multiple times felt sick... but I could not stop... I have a problem. Then I went home and Adam, Drew, and Madison celebrated Halloween with taco soup, homemade maple bars, and Avengers, because what says Halloween better than a bunch of grown men in costumes? But I am not ready to let go completely... so I am going to share the little bit of festivity I have left... DECORATIONS! Not too much and not too little.

  

And now today... I have the Halloween Hangover. Still sick from treats but needing more, sad to see my Halloween decorations come down, no more costumes, and man am I sleepy....

Love,
Deidre
