Haunted by Old Heather

How was Halloween? yeah, I know-that was days ago! Been busy this week. My man just got back from a loong business trip, so we were getting re-acquainted. Celebrating!
 We love seeing the little kids in their cutie pie costumes. Randy bought the candy on Friday, since I refused to be alone in the house with it. He bought bags and bags of Snickers, Butterfingers, Almond Joys, 3 Musketeers, but no Twix-thank Goodness! Unfortunately, we still have most of it! We only had about six small groups of trick or treaters. So sad. I guess all the kids in our neighborhood have grown up and are attending their own parties.
 I had two each of the Almond Joys and the Snickers. AAhhhh, chocolaty heaven! Is it just me, or do the bite sized Snickers taste better than the real 8 point candy bar? Randy threw away the bag the candy came in, so "Darn It!" I couldn't count it-but I approximated each one at one point.
And that set the stage for a not so strict weekend. I'm proud to say I resisted more candy bars, but said yes to other things. Like the Zaxby's chicken wings Sat afternoon. Like Bud Light Limes after dinner that same night. Like a chicken chimichanga on Sunday evening. Zoiks! 
Oooh, then at the movies on Sunday, I packed my own Orville Redenbacher 100 calorie kettle corn pop corn. We got a coupon for free popcorn, so that was "Randy's." Hahahahaha!!! And of course it tasted light years better than mine, so I ate my bag and about half of his bag with the irresistible butter. Man! A haunting by the old Heather. Must exorcise her now!!
My WW weigh in was tonight, and I only lost 0.6, so let that be a lesson to  me. Go easy on the candy and the Bud Light Limes, and $1 Twizzlers at the movie theater. (5 for 3 points) I will be taking the rest of the candy bowl in to work tomorrow morning. Party for them!!
