The Muse Online Writers Conference Is On

Since The Muse Online Writers Conference is on all week and I've signed up for a ridiculous amount of workshops and chats (had to take advantage of the free stuff, ya know), I'm going to take the week off from blogging. Sorry 'bout that. Feel free to leave me messages. Otherwise, have a great week and see you back here on Monday.

Oh, I will give you a little update. The family went searching for a kangaroo costume for hours this weekend, but didn't find one. We lucked out and got an Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) costume at K-Mart for $12.95 (regular price is $20). Then, we realized it was just too cold to wear such a thin costume. It wasn't big enough to get a jacket under it, so we'd have wear one over it, which defeats the purpose. Instead, we went to Old Navy (who knew they had costumes there???) and bought two really warm, fuzzy costumes: a white and pink cat, and a pink butterfly. So, if you have little ones, check out Old Navy's costumes. They're the warmest around and a little cheaper than some of the other places. Happy hunting!

  1. I'm gone half of the week, so I restrained when signing up for the conference workshops! Just have to be sure I don't miss my own chat on Wednesday - LOL

  2. I love those warm fuzzy costumes for kids! You're right it seems like all the costumes were meant to be worn in a heat-wave.

  5. I'm looking forward to hearing more about the Muse conference , too. Funny, I went out with my daughter this weekend trying to find a costume for my grandson that that was cool enough to wear here! They must send the warm fuzzy ones to Florida and the others to the rest of the country! Figures.

  8. Cool. That's the big dilemma. The problem in Nashville is, you never know. Sometimes on Halloween we have warm temps. Sometimes it's chilly.
