Honestly every evening we’d be like no, no puzzling tonight. Then one of us would walk past, glance and spot a piece where we knew it would go and next thing you know we’ve been sucked back in for hours.

God I wouldn't have the concentration to do that

Today I have spent 40 quid taking 4 kids out for Halloween only for 2 of them to leave the party after an hour and then other 2 half an hour before it ended

That is frustrating. It feels like everything at toddler age is like that and a lot of things have to be rushed also. Very annoying if there's money behind it, so get that completely.

We went north to the suburbs to trick or treat with friends and when sitting outside in front of the fire, I saw a shooting star (everyone else missed it)... we just got home at about 10:30... I want a nice soak, but I'm tired...

…(…I think that it started in Australia first…)…I recall Ben doing it here/and being sponsored… and both of my sons have done it a few times…I think it’s been a thing for around 15 years or so…

Me and the boy just got a McDs and watched the first five minutes of Stranger Things season 5 and then watched a breakdown video of Stranger Things the first 5 mins

Husband flew out of town for almost a week so I reset the house for the holidays. Got some woodworking/DIY projects done in the meantime. And just before that, I got the floating shelf for the breakfast area put up. Everything is so much more organized and tidier. Other little things in that mindset. I made a mail holder with compartments so we can sort our mail by purpose and it's no longer ending up anywhere else in the house...

Oh yeah, story time....

I had to call 911 on a neighbor to get fire department to come today because a neighbor decided to take heavy trash into their own hands. When we have any home debris, including old furniture, we put it on the end of the street for city pickup. These piles can get pretty large and theirs was considerable. Anyway, they decided they would start to try to slowly burn down this pile at the end of their driveway and partway in the street so it was a fire hazard.

This neighbor, also, a few days ago went door-to-door to different neighbors while screaming terroristic threats. Probably about someone living with them probably because we've seen that they've fought. Anyway, they were complaining they were locked out and had their phone taken... can't imagine why... my camera very much caught their conversation from across the street and my front yard is not small. So they were loud enough it sounded like they were already at our front door.

For some reason, they decided to go to everyone's door on the street and knock really hard but then walk away while having this crazy dialogue by themselves about how they were going to help someone bleed, etc. So probably quite a few cameras caught them. Our block is quiet, but this is the one unstable person on our street because law of probabilities I guess dictate we need at least one. He makes a scene in their driveway regularly, always about "I have a job!" and how he pays for stuff (yay?)... this justifies threats and total meltdowns when someone offends him. I've seen him meltdown at UPS drivers, so I suspect it's either mental illness or his brain is probably cooked from drugs. But he is obviously living with someone and not happy with the arrangement when he is told to do one. So this initiates schizo gangster mode every time for the entire block to hear, which is very annoying...

Related, I went to a very nice nature reserve yesterday with child in what is actually a nice area and some people showed up on bikes to make use of the covered area. One of them rides away and as he does this, he suddenly stops dramatically and then turns to the ones that are setting up very seriously, and says "Don't be ghetto!"... and then takes right off... pure comedy. And it fits in very well with the moral of the last story I just told...
