Curse be Non-School Days!

Today is a no school day, meaning all my kids are here (even my dayhome kids). So what that also means is that every so often during the day I feel the need to hide. So where is the best place to hide in my house? The computer room! So you get to be my accomplice to ignoring the children/keeping my sanity (for a bit longer).
The school division here got smart and makes the day after Halloween a PD day. The teachers don't want them the day after a candy binge, right?
My kids did pretty well last night, they each got a Safeway bag full of candy. I have been letting them go at it hard today. 'Cause, by next Wednesday the have to throw away what they haven't eaten. Beleive me it isnt' as cruel as it sounds. They usually have the majority digested by then. There are just a few remnants. mostly things they don't LOVE but will eat in a pinch.
Tate was a Tae Kwando guy, Cordell was a majician and Justine wore her Unicorn costume from last year. She had originally been a toaster box, no really she wore a box to school ofr her costume. She decided that she was a garbage droid from Star Wars, but when nobody else knew what she was she decided to go with last years more obvious cotume.
I'd post pics along with this, but my comp. won't let me get my pictures from my camera.

Anyhoo, talk to you all later!
