One Last Thing

Actually a few last things before I put my favorite holiday (Halloween) completely behind me.


Odd how The Addams Family, inasmuch as they’ve been around for ages, was so immensely popular as costumed characters this time around.

I’m fairly certain Netflix’s Wednesday had something to do with it.

My Little Stalker’s GG sent me a vid of her Wednesday costume and dance, for which she won a 1st Place Medal in a costume contest.


In return, I put on my costume, took a video of the dance I learned from TikTok shortly after the movie came out last year.


So, that's it for Halloween this year, but it's not too early to plan for next year's costume and decorations while everything's on sale.

Except that's how I ended up with three, count 'em, three Thing hands.



I'd planned early, purchased Thing on sale but, as Halloween approached, could not find where I'd stored Thing.

Of course, after purchasing another, the first one turned up; but then I ran across the motion activated Thing, had to have it.

So now, I've a collection.

Oh well, I suppose three hands are better than one.

    1. While the others around here are displaying family photos, I'm displaying severed hands. Go figure.

  2. Three Thing hands? Hahahahahaha! If someone ever asks you to "lend a hand," you know what to do! Both you and the Little Stalker do MARVELOUS

    1. Maybe I can work the hands into hanging patio decorations next year.

  3. Well, I screwed up that comment. Here's the ending . . . "do MARVELOUS Wednesday Addams dances!"

    1. One of the few TikTok dances I learned without injuring myself.

  4. I'd keep one of those Thing hands out to take to the next corporate-sponsored food feast. After the food, you can show how it steals money like corporate does...Linda in Kansas

    1. I thought you wanted me to stay out of jail, but here you are encouraging me to get locked up for libel against Corporate, LOL.

  5. And three things are better than one! (So I've heard.) You are a riot and make the best Wednesday ever. (Although Little Stalker did a good job, I must admit.)

    1. I just bet you heard that from the divine Mistress Maddie, LOL.

    2. I'm older than Mistress Maddie and, although I don't have half the experience I'm sure, I DID learn about three things long before he did.

    3. Mistress is going to love this discussion thread when he returns from continually vacationing and catches up, ROFLMAO.

    1. Like I told Debra, it's the only TikTok dance that didn't involve an injury of some sort while trying to learn it. I'm currently trying to learn the Woody Dance. I like to keep up.

  7. "could not find where I'd stored Thing."
    How could you misplace something in that little bitty apartment?

    1. You wouldn't believe how many times I've said those same words to myself when I couldn't find something. Good news is that, because space is limited, that which was missing eventually turns up.

  8. Love your Thing Collection, and yes, Three of anything constitutes an official Collection... as in Incurable Collector, I know. *LOL* The Addams Family is Iconic so I'm not surprised it has abided over the many Years, but, this Year it was very Popular and when a new Movie drops for any Iconic Characters, it always makes a big splash and new devotees of the Younger Generation who may not know of the Originals.

    1. Good to know three is considered a collection. I need one more cup for Inmate No. P01135809, possibly when he finally gets locked up, then I'll have a collection. Thus far, I've .. I love it when I wake up and DT isn't President and I love when I wake up and DT is being Indicted.

    2. I'd Love it more if he'd hurry up and just FOAD. *winks*

    1. At least now, if I can't find one, I've two others. I'm in real trouble if I can't find all three.

  10. Buying something you know you have but can't find when you want to use it is SO common at my house. You'd think we'd get smart and put a notation on our day planners near the date where we'd be wanting those items. Three definitely is a collection.

    1. I'm especially prone to forgetting where things are after a reorganization project and forget where I reorganized to, LOL.
