Respite (n.) To relieve by a pause or interval of rest.

My definition of a break is a good long nap

[or vegging out with a good movie]. I'll be doing precisely this over the next several days!

My invitation orders are filled now and I'm taking a break from "invitation overload" before I embark on my next projects. {A big THANK YOU to all my wonderful customers and new friends for all your halloween invitation orders! It's been fun being a part of your festivities!}

Next, I'll be preparing for my own Halloween party. Lots of halloweeny decorations to put up, menu to plan, groceries to buy, rooms to clean [ugh!], and costumes to finish. Guess nap time is over! I'll be seeing you in a week or so. Don't worry I'll be back! ~Julie

NO "BONES" ABOUT IT...

...today is the very last day I'm listing any of my Halloween/Party invitations for sale on eBay!
This is your last chance to get Severed Fingers, Toe Tags, Skull & Crossbones, Finger Earrings, or [the one and only] Severed Toes for this year!!!
I've been working my own "fingers" to the "bone" getting ready for my last auctions for this season, so I can mail out the invitations quickly to you. When I finally stop and rest my "bones" I'll probably realize just how "bone-tired" I am! [I'm such a "bone-head".]
After I'm done with all this craziness, I'll sit and rest my "lazy-bones" and get right back up to sew a cobwebby-spidery-costume for my little sis! She's needs a fabulous costume so she can get out there and "break a leg" in her school play!
Fortunately Halloween is just around the corner [I LOVE IT!] and with it autumn [my favorite season]! The leaves are changing color and falling, and the air is turning cooler. I feel it in my "bones".
Happy Haunting all! ~Julie
