Halloween prank not sitting very well
Like many of you I am a senior living on a fixed income. When Halloween rolls around I purchase as many treats as my budget will allow.
Around 8 p.m. I heard car doors slam and moments later my bell rang. Since I was out of treats I did not answer the door.
Apparently this did not please the kids at the door so they decided to steal instead. It is not really the cost of what was stolen, only a few dollars, but my time was stolen. What was taken was a homemade witches' hat from my concrete goose! It took me about five hours to hand-crochet.
So, if your kids came back to the car waving their "ill-begotten treat" I would like it back.
