When I was 11--in 1962--my mother was in the hospital at Halloween giving birth to my youngest brother. My sister and I were on our own to come up with costumes. I fabricated a pirate costume and my sister dressed as a ballerina using on of her old dance recital costumes. I think we ended up looking pretty darn good.<br /><br /><br />Lee<br /><a href="http://afarawayview.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"> A Faraway View</a>Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-31561034988378217432011-11-02T17:43:42.293-05:002011-11-02T17:43:42.293-05:00I love these personal glimpses.I love these personal glimpses.Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10006966091789130047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-63503894171409681622011-11-02T13:06:44.826-05:002011-11-02T13:06:44.826-05:00Dressing up can be fun.

It does sound like an exhausting two days...but fun too. I remember feeling overscheduled during my teen years at times but most of the time it was because everything I signed up to do seemed like it would be a lot of fun --- and it usually was!

Haha! <br /><br />I finally got my computer back today and am so sorry I missed out on your blog party. The hard drive crashing was just the tip of the ice berg of things that went wrong in the past two weeks. "When it rains, it pours," it's so true. NaNo starts in five minutes. Are you participating? This is my first time. I'm not starting in five minutes.
