Happy Halloween!!
Halloween Costumes (And Some Great Costume Ideas to Make your own costume at home!) (And some great deals to check out, too! Maybe you'll get some great ideas! : )




 Well, this made me laugh - if you're heading out for Halloween with your dog! haha! 


Buy any costume at BuyCostumes for $15+ and get a FREE Deluxe Elsa costume (Suh'weeet!!)
Tia wanted in on the fancy 'bear' action, too! haha! 




HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ALL MY SCAAAARY FIENDS OUT THERE!! Easy to make, 


Last Minute Hallowe'en Costumes! Let's see, I've been a Hot Nurse, a Freudian Slip (my personal favorite, because I thought it was really, really funny... and you know I love to amuse myself, and then hope other will laugh with me, rather than just at me... although, truth be told, I'll take that, too! hahaha!) I love the idea of forcing your kid or 'smaller' friend to be the 'Jung'en'... oh, I'm full o' Bad Jokes like that! Anyway, those Costume Ideas are on my Hallowe'en page, for fun... and this year I am a Fortune Teller! I tell everyone what a great, highly successful life they gonna have! haha! And I'm sure they will, right?? The Power of Thought, Baby, the Power of Thought!

Our Low Prices! Better than their September free shipping at Costumes4less.com Costumes, Party Supplies, Lingerie, Shoes - for all Occasions!
I love a great Hallowe'en Costume -- my all-time favorite Costume was when I dressed up as a 'Freudian Slip'... I wore a Black Slip (you know, like the things you wear under a dress, but now you can get fabulous 'slips' at Frederick's that would be even nicer!) with a sign that said 'Freud' written on the front. Comfy and funny (and it looked good, too! ha,ha,ha!). Oooh, and don't forget the high heels and stockings -- and I'm just thinking this would be even funnier on a man! (That just makes me laugh, and I'm sitting here all by myself! ha,ha,ha!)

Hey, just came up with a great idea if you are going out for Hallowe'en with your kid, or a smaller &/or younger friend... have the smaller person dress like a child (if they already are a kid, all the faster!), and put a sign on them that says, "Jung' ian" or just "Jung' en", depending on how far down in the Deep South you is... ha,ha! Oh, your Psychology Majors will laugh and laugh, then continue to drink, no doubt!

You know what else I thought might be a fun costume to put together? I thought about going to School (it has to be a 'Work-Friendly' Costume, unlike my Wonder Woman Costume for later...! ha,ha!) as an Emotional Wreck. Heart on my Sleeve (she wears her heart on her sleeve...), tears cut out of blue paper or material and placed generally all over... a heart, broken in two, taped on your back... maybe some electrodes for your head, just for fun (shock therapy). You get the drift. Might still do this one at work... must try on the Wonder Woman Costume to see how short it is... maybe I could modify it for 'daytime use'?? ha,ha,ha!

Halloween: 2007. Okay, so this year, I'm gonna be a "Bee-Otch". I know, I can hear you through the computer, you know, and that is a slight change for me, in that this time I'll be wearing real wings, and not just acting the part! hahaha! (I'm just makng myself laugh, now -- all giddy at being up really late, still working on my site!) My lovely Daughter, Cara, went out and bought some Bee Wings and the matching Antennae, so as soon as I saw it, I squealed, like I am want to do, (and not like a pig, as some would expect...), "Ooooh, I wanta be a Bee-Otch!" So that's how that was born. I'm gonna wear the Bee wings and the Antennae, then make myself a big medallion that says 'Otch'. Only the sharpest peoples in da crowd will get it, after lots of drunken (I can only hope!) explaining on my part, when I show off my costume!

  Hey,I was a Cat Woman, one year! Funny story attached to that! hahaha!


I always get the Amazon.com Gift Certificates, especially for Family and Friends who live further away. The Amazon Gift Certificates are delivered in days, and they're incredibly easy for anyone to use. Perfect Gift Idea! And you can get a large array, if you will...lol... of well, everything, at Amazon, including lots of costumes and Halloween stuffs! : )

Get your Halloween supplies and costumes at great prices at AliExpress.com!

(An oldie but a goodie, this is an easy, inexpensive and super-sexy Costume Idea... ) Sunday, October 7th, 2006. Oh, hey. I bought a new Hallowe'en Costume, this year (last year..). I was gonna go as a Freudian Slip, since I think that's really funny (Black sexy slip with Freud written across it... fun and funny, much like meself! ha,ha,ha!). I happened upon a Wonder Woman Costume, and really, that's perfect for me, what wit' da Thigh High Boots, 'n all... maybe I can get a picture of that to put on the site... wish me luck finding the right wires, which you know I struggle with!

Pet Costumes

Sexy Halloween Costumes and a Giant Shoe Sale! WooHoo!! 
(Hope these links are still live... all these different stores have been sneakily chaning their ads and links.. very annoying.. will check this later, or let me know, if you find something that needs to be updated... or just straight-out removed : ) 

ElectriqueBoutique.com has an enormous selection of very sexy costumes, and stuff you can put together to make your own extra-unique costume... and they are having the largest Shoe Sale sale of the season on select brands of shoes, such as Soda and Classified. Their warehouse is full and they are slashing prices to make room. That's right, they are letting these cuties go for only $9.99 a pair! And you know I'm a bit of a shoe freak! Oooh, I just went in to see what I want to buy, and they have a pair of White GoGo Boots for $9.99WooHoo! Now there's a cheap way to find out how your life would change if you just owned a pair of GoGo Boots, right?? hahaha! And Strappy Sandals like you wouldn't believe, and all for $9.99 or less... yippee!

I've bought a lot of fabulous stuff from ElectriqueBoutique.com over the years, and they are exceptionally easy to work with online.(Check out their Sexy Outfits, too!) And their shoes and boots fit like a dream! I think I've bought three pairs of their Thigh High Boots, and they all fit perfectly! Now's the time to give that a try, if you haven't got some sitting in your closet, right now! haha!Electrique Boutique


Find sexy costumes for Halloween at great prices!
Oh, let me update you on the Wonder Woman Costume... it was hideous on a whole new level that you might not have known existed... hilarious, though. Cara and I laughed and laughed and laughed, it was just that bad, and of course Cara took a million pictures of me looking all terrible, 'n all. The 'Thigh High Wonder Woman Boots' were like giant socks that fall down to your ankles the second you take a step, and before you know it, you've got yerself some 'Grade One Socks'... I used to teach Grade One, and the kids invariably would have their little socks hanging down around the middle of their feet, completely unnoticed... funny! Anyhooo, this Wonder Woman Outfit was just God-Awful. They have some great ones out there... if you're going in the Wonder Woman direction for your costume, this year, just get the sexiest one you can find, and wear your own thigh high boots! (I'm assuming you have yer own, or are actively looking for a pair, right now! haha!) Here's the deal: You can't go wrong with insanely sexy, 'cause, really, no one will care if it's perfect or not, if you're lookin' all Hot 'n all, right?? You gonna wear it, you gotta own it!

Hallowe'en is all about the Sexy Costumes with the Adult Crowd, to be sure. It's either Sexy Costumes, or Creepy Costumes... and sometimes (come on, now.. we've all seen it!), there's a terrible cross-over and someone who is trying their very, very bestest to be sexy is just down right creepy. You know what I'm talkin' about! hahaha! That's when you know they are waiting, desperately, for you to say how incredibly sexy they look, and you say, "Hey, there, You. You, you, you. Wow. That is quite a costume! Hmmmm. Yep." Then you gotta turn and run, and hope to God they're not faster than you (and that you don't spill your drink while you is runnin'! hahaha!).

Aidan used to love wearing animal costumes at Hallowe'en... now it's all about the Power Rangers and Ninjas, so if you have children small enough that they can still be 'manipulated' into these cute little costumes, go for it and take lots of pictures! I think you can scroll down this Halloween page to see some pictures of Aidan in a white bear suit ... I think he was about 3 or 4 for that outfit!Very cute!



Amazon has an incredible selection of Costumes, so type in what you're after and see what comes up!


I woke up this morning (okay, this was a morning God-Knows when, but good story, so I'm leavin' it in!) with a great new idea for another funny costume -- you could go as a Weasel, wearing a Suit and carrying a Briefcase (for your candies, or full of candies you could give out, depending on how old you are and your level of access to bags and bags of candies!). Guess who you'd be? That's right, a Hollywood Agent! Maybe you could have a Contract you could whip out... and a vial of Red Ink -- that's be the 'Sign Here in Blood part of the Contract -- that's the really legally binding part! ha,ha,ha! (Okay, now this is for my own amusement!)

Anyway, you'd need to paint your nose Black, and try to make your face look 'furry' with makeup or backwards brown wig..., put something furry at your neck and wrists. Kids could wear a parent's Suit Jacket (remember, I'm pretty sure there are plenty of female Hollywood Agents, too...), or pick up a cheap suit at a Second Hand Store. They're great places to find unique Costumes. You might have to let people in on what you are, but they'll laugh and laugh, and then your Hallowe'en will be even more fun!


Now you've got your sexy costume, so what's next on yer list?? Sexy Lips! This looks like fun... and it appears to be very safe... it comes from a reliable source, so definitely worth checking out for a bit of fun! Maybe this'll turn out to be a brand new look for you -- who knows??



 I know, some folks don't like dressing up their dogs, but it is a lot of fun , and they're soooo cute! One year for Hallowe'en, we dressed our wee dog, Tia, up as Cara's Agent, and that was very entertaining -- mostly for us!

Who doesn't love a Baby Costume?? Aidan's been a Baby Bear, a Panda, a Polar Bear (can you see a trend in the early years?), and this year I got him the Red Power Ranger's Costume. They have some amazing Girls' costumes, too, this year. Cara and I saw some lovely Disney Dresses lots of wee girls would love!


Here are a couple of my favorite Hallowe'en Costumes over the years... Aidan loves to buy the costumes, but when it comes time to actually put the costume on, it's a whole other story. I always have to have a 'back-up' costume I can throw over his coat, since, invariably, it starts to snow just on your way out to go Trick-or-Treating! Oh, Canada. How cold and harsh you are... I think those are the first few words of the Canadian National Anthem...

 - Soo cute!!  See Tia, our sweet little dog? She loves to check out Aidan -- a little smell here, a wee sniff there... Aidan's 8, now, (Okay, now he's 16 - that's how long I've been writing on mah' site and blog! lol!) and just as cute as ever! His Costume Plan for this year is to be the White Power Ranger, on account 'a it comes with a fancy Gold and White Sword! hahaha!

Happy Hallowe'en!! Ailsa! xoxo

#Dogs! Tia -- My Sweet Little Dog! #Cockapoo #Spaniels #Ilovedogs! #DogCostumes : )



 Is that a treat in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?? Both! lol! : )

Here she is! Tia is 12 years old and everyone loves her! There are many days when Tia gets waaaay more hugs and kisses than anyone else in the family! Lucky Wee Dog!

Tia used to spend a good part of her day with her head on my leg at the Computer! Isn't she cute?? She used to like to lay under my desk while I'm working, too! She's such a sweet wee girl! (She looks sleepy because she had been standing like this for hours, waiting for me to finish working! ha,ha!)

In case you're wondering what I'm wearing -- and I am wearing something(!!) -- it's my favorite Black Mini-skirt, which I practically live in! I've had it for years, and have to sew in a new zipper every so often, and since I've lost all that weight, I have to keep adding new buttons to cinch in the waist -- WooHoo!



Here's Tia supervising the work! The windows are the perfect height for her to look out very easily. Tia spends a lot of time watching the Prairie Dogs from the Sunroom!

Tia loves the Snow, but I'm not so sure she really, really loves her Sweater, but we do! She looks sooo cute in it! We only put it on her when the Temperature goes below -20 Degrees Celsius. And she only stays outside for a very tiny amount of time, since it's too bitterly cold. Otherwise, Tia loves the Winter and likes to run her nose through the Snow!

I just got the best No Barking Collar at Canadian Tire over this past weekend. It's the Sonic Bark Control Collar, by Guardian Pet Training Systems, and it is miraculous! I tested it, first, adjusted the collar to fit Tia's neck, then put it on her when she was going outside to play (where she typically will bark at other dogs walking by, which is not good), and in the Sunroom, where she also barks at the dogs who are innocently walking by the window.

Up to 72% off pet medications, free shipping always, free 24/7 vet access!

I watched her to see what her response would be to the high-pitched sound (a little startled!), then each time she barked and the sound went off, I said to her firmly, "No Barking". By the end of a few hours, I took the collar off, and now I just get the collar out to show it to her, and say, "No Barking", and she immediately stops. I can't believe we didn't find this earlier, given that she's almost 7... but better late than never, right? I put the Colar beside her on the Couch in the Sunroom where she likes to sun herself (and bark!), so she was pretty quiet just with it sitting there! Funny! And quiet!

So if you are struggling with your dog barking like crazy, give this a try. They make it for Small Dogs and Big Dogs, and the Volume is controllable, so you don't have to worry about your dogs (or your!) ears being damaged.



Some Healthy Options for your Favourite Friend! : )





She's moved over one room! This is our Master Bedroom -- the Sunroom is off the Master with lovely Double French Doors. One thing that is really hilarious that Tia is doing these days is 'crying' (more like a humming!) in the morning -- not to go outside, but to get into the Sunroom! I leave the Sheer Curtains closed in the morning, so she slides her body under the curtains! Hysterical!



Who doesn't love a picture of a boy and his dog?? Tia goes between being Aidan's Best Friend and desperately trying to stay away from him! He is one her primary sources of food, though, so they are generally pretty close together! :)



Tia and Aidan spend a lot of time just running in the Garden! It's sooo beautiful, here -- just like living in a Park!



We had a 100 foot Rope out of every door so Tia could go out and play without us having to worry about her when we're working on the Decks or the Gardens. She comes in when Dwight is Mowing the Lawn, though, for safety!



Two of my favorite 'things'... Tia and my famous 'Marry Me' Cheesecake! ha,ha,ha! They both look good, don't they?


http://buildyourownhousebodylife.blogspot.ca/2010/10/cherry-cheesecake.html


Here's my Girl in the Laundry Room Sink! She loves to play outside all the time in the Spring -- right before the grass is really full and the snow is melting, daily... so those little paws get pretty mucky!

- -

Dwight put in a Spray Fixture in this Sink, so it makes a great area to clean up Tia's little dirty paws! Isn't she cute? No wonder we love her soooo very much! ha,ha,ha!


Here's little 'Construction Dog'! This is just before the Carpet went in on the Stairs (and the whole Lower Level...).

See the little rectangular box cut out of the stairs? That's for the Stair Lighting -- a very cool feature right off the Theatre Room! (I'll need to take another picture of the Bannister!)

- -

Here I am (Ailsa!) with our wee dog, Tia! Man, she is sooo cute and cuddly! This is one very loved dog!

-

Did you notice a slight difference in my size from the first picture to the second one? Yes, that's about a year and 30 pounds! But Tia loves me the same no matter what I look like, and I love her -- there's nothing like the love you have for your wee Pet, is there?? If you want to see how I lost the weight, Click Here.

Decorating with your Dog! lol!

Ahhh, another long day for Tia! A lot of our house colors seem to match 'The Dog', so maybe there IS something to that old design tip to match your house to your dog! (Maybe the other old 'Match your house to your make-up' works, too! Foundation first, then some color... maybe we all do this subconsciously! Now, wouldn't that be funny??)





Tia just went to the Groomers! Here she is all neat and trimmed!


And here's Tia with two of her favorite toys -- her 'new baby' (a little treat for being such a good girl at the Groomers!) and, of course, Aidan!


I really enjoy the Message Boards on Classmates.com -- I've made a lot of great new 'on-line' friends through it, as well as re-connecting with lots of 'old' friends!
Anyway, my new friend from the 'Dog Board', Kelly, has a little Spaniel who won't go to the bathroom outside when it rains! Oh, no! That ain't good! I was thinking about it when Tia also chose not to go outside when it was raining last weekend, and I came up with an idea that I think might work for Kelly and her wee dog, as well as lots of 'city dwellers' and people wanting to train their puppies.
In the City or in an Apartment, it would be much easier for your Pet to train to 'go' on the 'Insta-Lawn' than to trek all the way down the stairs, and clean up would involve a shovel and your own toilet...think you can take it from there!


Here's the idea: Create an 'Indoor Lawn' for you dog.

Insta-Lawn!
Get a large rectangular Plastic bin. Must remember to write to some Manufacturers to see if we can get this to Market, unless it already exists...

If you can find a flat enough Lid to use, that's a good height.

The Container should be about 3' X 5', and about 4" or 5" in Height.

Make the Lawn like a layered cake! One Layer of Vermiculite or Gravel.

One Layer of Good Potting Soil.

A healthy amount of Grass seed.

Put it in a sunny location and water well. The Grass should come up in about a week -- TaaDaa!

Insta-Lawn!

You could make your own 'Lawn Box' out of Lumber, just remember to add a Plastic Liner.
Hey, just thought of another shape that might work well in a smaller Apartment -- how about a Box that could fit behind your Sofa, if it's up against a wall? Say, 1' X 5' or 6'?? Might be worth a shot!

You know what? I was out shopping on the weekend in the Laundry Basket Section (my life is endlessly fascinating! ha,ha!), and I happened upon the perfect container for the Insta-Lawn Idea -- the Under-the-Bed Plastic Containers! They're perfect -- just the right size and depth to grow a little lawn. Some of them have wheels, so I'd make sure the wheels are removed or stabilized, or just choose one without the wheels so you don't freak your dog out completely if their new 'toilet' starts to roll away from them!

I've got a Target ad and a Walmart ad, since I know you can get them at each of the stores, and the prices are great. You can order the Vermiculite, Potting Soil and Grass Seed, too.


Drop me a line if and let me know if this works for you and your pet!

I have the worst time with Allergies, and now I can only use completely Unscented Items (with the exception of Citrus, which I'm still Okay with!). This site has all sorts of useful products for folks like me!
When we first got Tia (our wee dog), I had a really bad allergic reaction to her, but we all loved her sooo much, I went in search of a product that might help, and I found one -- Allerpet/d (Allerpet, Inc., Farnam Pet Products). You just rub it on your pet (cover all the fur...) and any 'pet smell' disappears. The bizarre thing is that we only had to do it a number of times over the first two years, then rarely after that...this stuff really works! There are other Allerpet Products, too. I know about the one for Cats, for sure.
