I am an Ebay fiend

I love Ebay. I get such a rush bidding on something. It takes me forever to see if what I'm bidding on is the best deal on Ebay. Then, I hit the BID NOW button and I'm exhilarated. I bite my nails during the last seconds before the auction ends. I pump my fists in the air when I win. I say Christian slang when I lose like "dang", "poop", "good grief" and I think very evil thoughts about the ebayer who outbid me. But tonight, just now, just 3 minutes ago - I was victorious!!!!!! I won a Morticia Addams outfit for myself for Halloween!!! I'm excited because that completes our "theme" for this year. Last year we were the Mystery Inc. gang (Scott as Fred, Myself as Velma, Emma as Daphne and Maelynn as Scooby-do-be-DOO!) This year we are going as the roaring '60's sitcoms! Maelynn and my nephew, Logan are Fred and Wilma Flintstone. Emma and I are Morticia and Wednesday Addams. I cannot and will not (I'm afraid) get Scott to dress up as Gomez ("Scott, will you please just go as Gomez?" "JUST Gomez? No, not anything!") I'm not sure how I did it last year.

I can't explain how excited I am. I enjoy Halloween so much! I love the fall - I love seeing the kids come around - I love fixing Chicken Stew before we go out and eating it when we get home - I love going around to our extended families houses - I love seeing Emma and Maelynn so excited to get all dressed up - I love being the only mom to dress up and go around with their kids - I love it all!! And not to mention the huge haul of chocolate I get to enjoy for the next year!!

Anyway - I thought that I would share my Ebay joy. I'm already bidding on an "I Love Lucy" dress for next year!!! I'll start working on Scott so he can be Ricky next year hahahahahaha!!! "Lucy, I'm home!"
