Happy November 1st!!
Yay! It's November and Halloween is over. The idea of Halloween now as an adult with all this scary death and fear jaunts doesn't do it for me. I live a lot of my life in fear why do I want to seek it out now? I'm totally mixing a very serious discussion with a not so serious holiday. As I'm learning about myself, I need to chill out and enjoy life and stop thinking about it so seriously...
I loved Halloween as a kid, all that candy. But then again I was allowed to eat candy all the time since I needed to gain weight and that was my method of choice. Dressing up has also been a favorite activity of mine, but I don't need a holiday to do that. Come on dressing up only once year, more like 3 or more times to make the year worth it. In college I was in a sorority so costume parties occurred as often as the day Thursday. I was known for my funny oddball costumes. I found more boys talked to me when they could admire my creative design then all the skin I could be showing in a not so creative sexy version of a costume. To name a few costumes that I will never forget: ch-ch-chia pets, we wore real Astro turf, Christmas elf,Olympic ice skaters, and stacy's mom (from that song), not the most original outfit but everyone loved say, Stacy's mom has got it going on!!
This year Halloween seemed to drag on forever! I only participated in my Young Adult's murder mystery dinner party. I was Vicky Ravioli (gluten-free Ravioli) who was the ex wife of a big boss who liked younger woman. So I got a lot of money from our divorce and went to canoodle with an inspector and a US Congressman. Yes, I was quite busy, but I didn't get to kill anyone and I survived! The party kind of worked, it seemed like too many people knew others secrets so it was hard to bribe others. Four others were murdered because of their actions or shady dealings with others. And more make believe and so on. It was fun to dress up in 1920's garb, but kind of awkward to play this game with all these married couples...I figured out this was not what single people need to be doing on Halloween...It was a great way to spend time together and not get to know anyone!
Now that's its November I need to face my biggest fear, making decisions! Decision making to me is as scary as spiders. See in decisions you set up a course of events, and this could turn out the way you want or not, like it will cost you your time, money or you life. In my situation certain decisions cost me my health. I need too stop torturing myself with CF but the past couple of years I have let it overshadow my decision making. I am slowly working on just going for it, not listing all the pros and cons, just making a decision (I'm talking big decisions, not what shall we have for dinner tonight, though sometimes that's a hard one) I'll keep you updated on the decisions I make and not all the intensive thinking of my mind :)
