Happy Friday! 12 more days till Halloween! It’s been a long week, I’ve had seizures every day, brain fog has been hip deep, but we’ve still gotten things done. Halloween is approaching and even Bark Box has gotten into the swing of things, with a “Children of the Acorn” theme for Halloween.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It's also so we can find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. Members come here to check in. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a PM to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!

Halloween is fast approaching, and obviously this little guy was too busy gathering nuts to pay attention to traffic. Both of the dogs LOVE this toy, which has two squeakers and is crinkly. Lursa loves to try and de-fur the tail, so we have to keep an eye on her.
Today we’re going grocery shopping, and we’ll get our pumpkins and such for this year, we need to pick up the make up kit for Bit as well. She wants to be a Barlow Vampire.
The real problem, and one we may just forgo, are the teeth. The blue and face make-up I can accomplish. The teeth? There’s no way. And the prosthetics are just uncomfortable.
If I had the money I would put up something like this:
Or maybe this:
This one is pretty cool too:
And this one is cute.
And here’s a nifty DIY Halloween lighting project, that is pretty inexpensive.
