Halloween is the heaux dream holiday. I usually see lots of sexy every thing.

I don't get Halloween period, I didn't really grow up celebrating it. It just seems like an annoying road bump to the real holiday season.

I always love the idea of Halloween. But we never did anything. My parents never really Celebrate anything, and being overweight my whole life if I even mentioned going trick or treating I got lectures about my weight. As an adult it became more of not wanting to get up and go to the door every few minutes especially since our apartment is on the second floor. I was always self conscious so I never enjoyed putting on a costume either.

I much prefer the holidays that come after, Thanksgiving and Christmas (though I'm technically jewish)

I'm not a big fan of Halloween. I have a cute costume this year, but it also involves some really great tights, otherwise no way could I pull off the short tutu that goes with it. I feel like Halloween is the one time of year where it is socially acceptable for good girls to dress like wh*res and so, I am ok with it. If the rest of the year I wear conservative clothing, I figure once a year I can go out and look like hookerella and I should be good.

that's exactly what I said to myself last year before my surgery! For one time in my entire life I might be able to pull off an adult costume off the rack, but I am convinced that yes- Halloween is for ho's fat or skinny. I love love love Halloween still, but this year I am dressing as a pumpkin! :)

What makes this risque is that your significant other is dressing up as "Peter Peter". ;)

I absolutely love Halloween! In fact my husband and I love it so much we got married on Halloween 28 years ago. When we have purchased houses, we chose Halloween to close on them. LOL.

It is our lucky number too!

For many many years we have had huge Halloween parties where friends would fly in or drive in and stay the week, weekend, whatever they could. We Celebrate Halloween in my family bigger than Christmas.

My family and friends would also get dressed up for trick or treat, come to our house and scare the neighbors. Our house was called the Halloween house in our neighborhood and we always got a huge turnout, people would drive in from other parts of the city to see it.

At our costume parties we always had to dress up and finding great costumes in a size 3x was near impossible.i spent a small fortune on our costume after all we were the host and hostess. Although this is the 2nd year in many that we are not having a huge party, I am excited that I could actually find and purchase a costume in a size large and it will likely fit great.

I will say it is kind of sad that we sold our home and moved states so a party this year is near impossible. Hopefully next year!

Halloween rocks!

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
