Introducing our Halloween Tree!
The Todd has taken to calling me “Good Housekeeping with a taste for blood.” We spent a wonderful afternoon yesterday making our Halloween Tree. I’ve seen fancy, stupidly expensive black trees at the decor places, but I’m not paying $300.00 for a black tree. I picked a nice sturdy branch, clipped off most of the leaves, and The Todd spray-painted it black and put it in a cheap galvanized pail with “Quick Set”–it’s a fast-setting post mix for about $7.00. You can also use sand if you don’t want to get into the cement thingie. Nearly everything you see on the tree here is either from the Dollar store or homemade. I used spanish moss and fake cobwebs to add a three-dimensional look to the tree. Those adorable paper lanterns are from the Dollar store, too. Is Halloween not the BEST holiday?
Save yourself $2,500! A Free-Bee Will & Trust Kit from Suze Orman!
I posted this last week–I’m bringing it up again because it’s THAT
important. I am a big believer in preparing for the worst and hoping that my effort will appease the Dark Gods of Bad Luck and major misfortune will pass my family by. So far, so good!
Seriously, every family should have a Will and Trust–who will take care of your little ones? Do you want extraordinary medical measures to stay alive? Does anyone know where all your tax stuff is? Birth certificates? Suze Orman is an AMAZING financial advisor who’s offering a FREE Will and Trust Kit–save yourself thousands of dollars. It’s easy to read and put together, and I PROMISE you that you will feel such peace after you do this.
Sneaky inside tip: From September 27th to October 3rd, go to www.suzeorman.com and click on the Will & Trust link. Click on the gift code button and enter 898989
(Editor’s note: Lona just finished the process and had this to say…completed the forms, half expecting something to pop up requesting payment information. NOPE!! As promised, everything was completed for FREE! There is great information with the forms that explains what’s going on and it’s suggested that you can go to an attorney to review all the paperwork if you want.
How amazing that you provided this just when I needed it!
