This warmed my heart [View all]

My wife works from home.

Yesterday, on Halloween, her work table was piled high with paperwork. She had no on-camera meetings, and she didn't have to go into work at all, but she put her Halloween top on.

I asked her why she bothered wearing that since she wasn't going to be seeing anyone at all, and she told me that she put it on for me.

It's a lovely top, the pictures don't do it justice.

She has worn this top on every Halloween for the past 30 years!!

Here's some pics. I'm just checking in. I haven't posted in a few days. Struggling badly with Shingles. No improvement. Just trying to stay alive at this point.

You all be good.
