It is last weekend....
My stomach still hurts.
Why don’t I go over to Walgreen’s and get some Pepto Bismal for you? I need to pick up a couple of office things, too.
NUT looks at her husband. What office supplies did he need without a job? Instead of asking NUT simply told him to go for it. She certainly didn’t want to discourage anything that had the word office in it. No sirrreeeee! And besides, her stomach really did hurt.
I’ll be back in a bit.
NUT hobbles upstairs and dives into her fluffy bed. This flu she had was terrible. She wasn’t sure if it was the Swine Flu because there was no way she would go to a doctor’s office and be exposed to more nasty germs to find out. Besides, NUT felt it better just to live in the unknown.
A nap was needed and NUT obliged.
An hour later the dogs wake her up with their “Welcome Home” barking. NUT looked at the clock and how long she had been asleep. WTF had taken Mr. Nut so long at Walgreen’s?
NUT meanders over to the window and peeks out. Here is Mr. Nut carrying 5 HUGE bags of stuff. What in the heck was he doing with all those unknown items? NUT looked for his favorite golf store on the bags but no, they said loud and clear Walgreen’s.
Ummmmmmmm, better check out the situation. Something is not quite right in the Nut House.
Bark, bark, bark. Funny sounds. Bark, bark, bark.
Roxie almost knocks NUT over trying to get out of Dodge and Daddy’s new stuff. She headed upstairs like a bat out of hell. Now NUT was really curious. Roxie the Brave German Sheppard was the biggest coward on the block.
However, Rozie is sniffing the bags, sure there was a treat in there. Mommy always picked up a bone, toy or treat when she went to that store. Perhaps Daddy did the same thing?
What is all this stuff?
Well…………….I decided since we got the loan and are going to be here awhile we needed a graveyard in the front yard for Halloween.
WTF? Mr. Nut DEFINITELY had too much time on his hands. Graveyard? With all my cute decorations around?
They would clash for sure. Didn’t Mr. Nut realize NUT was in charge of ALL decorating in the Nut House? Hadn’t 31 years of marriage taught him that?
Everything was 50% off and I couldn’t resist. Just look, NUT! Isn’t it incredible?
NUT looks and decides her husband of 31 years has just become a little boy of 10 again. His eyes were sparkling with mischief and he was obviously quite thrilled with his haunted shopping spree. Even though the last thing NUT wanted on her front lawn was a graveyard, she was happy her husband had that spark back in his eye. If something simple like this could enchant him, she was all for it.
Two hours later…………………………..
Come see, NUT. It is all ready for the curtain call.
NUT opens the front door and a witch scares the shit out of her with a horrid cackle.
It actually looked like it was flying. As NUT took a closer look she could see fishing wire hooked up to the wisteria tree vine. Whenever someone stepped near her, she lit up with orange eyes and DID fly a bit.
The bat also played spooky music just to make sure you were good and frightened.
 Mr. Nut was proud he had scared his wife. Damned but didn't this feel like he was a teenager again? He should have done a graveyard a long time ago!
NUT was still in shock about the whole thing. She couldn’t take much more excitement and get well at the same time. The Children Factory needed her back and there was no telling if her classroom would still be standing or not.
I'm going to change her, though. She needs spiderwebs and I think she won't scare the kids as much there because of the screen door.
There, that is better!
Down the front steps was the Mr Nut's famous graveyard. Wow, Mr. Nut didn’t mess around when he set up something like this!
Come see. I have the fancy stuff in the kitchen.
NUT sees all these various plastic and rubber body parts and masks.
Interesting.
Then Mr. Nut plugs it all in.
 Holy shit! Even the heart lit up and moved! NUT figured they would have the best graveyard in the whole neighborhood this year. And surprisingly, NUT felt as proud as her husband. It isn’t easy to set up a complete graveyard like this!
Now the wait is on until Halloween Night when the graveyard really comes to life.
Nutsville Class Assignment:
Do you have any Haunted Houses to go to in your area? We have one downtown that is adults only. Son Nut went last year and said it truly was very scary. I think I’ll go ahead and skip it………
