You have a busy schedule, Susan! I hope all goes well for your brother, Michele. It sounds like you have had a lot on your plate lately! Amy, I am a fan of perennials also, but I had a bunch that froze a few years ago and have needed annuals to fill in the spaces til the new ones get some size to them. Tonight - a 2014 oldie I found - Cheryl's Balsam Spruce Musk. It is quite nice and pretty strong for an elder!

It is very cold here, too! Under 30 degrees at night, but 50-60 during the day. All of my annuals went kaput last night. Maggie, it is interesting how the number of trick-or-treaters changes each year. It is really hard to know ho much candy to buy - I hated running out early! Susan, that Halloween scent sounds like a very good one! Honeybear, that is a lot to spend on shipping! Ouch! Candles would make the box heavy in a hurry. Tonight it is cleaning out the Halloween basket: Trick or Treat - HHS and BooBerry - Scentsationals.

Maggie, I hope the day after Halloween is not too chaotic at school! Amy - the dentist? Must have gone well to be able to post! I have had 2 waxidents in 2 days, and turned on the melters last evening and forgot to put in the melt. Maybe I need to be licensed for this hobby? It seems to be above my skill level right now. Tonight, Happy Halloween to all! - I am melting YC, the patchouli scent. It is not Halloween if I don't melt that one for the spooky evening.

Trying several Haunted Hayride tarts from different vendors. So far Dessa's is my winner!

Thank you for the furnace condolences! That really eats into the wax fund, doesn't it? It has been chilly, but absolutley beautiful - blue skies, autumn leaves...I wish it would stay like this for months! Tonight it is Cheryl's - Cedar and Teakwood. I think tomorrow will be the time to bust out the Halloween scents!

I am also happy it is Friday. This has seemed like a very long week. We had to replace the furnace this week. A big project that did not make the cats happy. Too much noise, thank you very much. I hope you have a nice weekend with DH, Valerie! Amy, I am also thinking I should have bought the Lavender sampler. I haven't found many of those blends I don't like. The Pumpkin Lavender was one of my favorites. Looks like I may need to do a custom blend somewhere to get more. And, I usually can not smell the Candy Corn scents, either...and I really want to! Tonight it is Citrus Pop - Scentsy.

Amy, I see you have the cocoa/coffee bug! Michele, I am glad you had a good time with all of your events! I remember Hocus Pocus! That was an extremely popular, hard to find candle awhile back! I am melting a favorite CYS - I don't think it is on the list anymore - Pumpkin Lavender Vanilla.

Michele, you have had a big weekend! Congratulations on it all! Time to rest... Amy, I agree - it is fun to do wax maintenance! Maggie I have quite a few TCC! It has been several years ago - but I think that was the first vendor that I tried out my own custom blends. This weekend it has been Scentsationals - Adventure Seekers and one from a very old OOB vendor - Grumpy Girl in a Blue Sugar scent.

Amy, a moment of silence for your Cronuts! You will miss them... Maggie, was that a surprise day off? Or something already on the calendar? My Night Owl has been pretty good - I have only melted 2-3...seems there is a lot of other wax here! Tonight it is another very old one from Bella - Caramel Zucchini Bread.

Valerie, the Mom in me is feeling your anxiety! I am glad she is better. And that she is willing to contact you for help! Michele - finding an unposted post is annoying - like typing a big one and seeing it go poof! Tonight it is Night Owl - Iced Orange Chiffon Cake.

I also noticed that your surgery would be Thanksgiving week, Michele! I hope you can just sit, heal and direct cooking traffic! Sharon, glad the smeller still works! Amy, traffic delays make me nuts. Fortunately we have GPS programs now that can give you a clue about what is ahead! Tonight it is Fizzy Lavender - Sweet Sage.

Amy, the Bloom notes I could find included greens, daisy, honey blossom, peony, amber and I think musk? Glad to hear work is calmer today! I imagine more gets done that way... Michele, sending your brother good thoughts. Tonight it is Satin Suzie: Aubrey Marie, which has some rose and lemon notes.

Isn't that Scentsationals MM the one you liked so much, Amy? I never have found it...but will keep looking! Sorry to hear about work issues...battle fatigue again? Trying to use up the YC melt stash - popped Wildflower Blooms in. I ended up liking this one a lot!

Michele, I am thinking good thoughts for your brother! I am glad you dad had a good birthday. Amy, that must have been fun feeding the horses! I love their fuzzy noses and lips when they nibble. Went for a beautiful drive today though our wine country. Clear blue sky, brilliant orange and yellow leaves. I love this time of year! Today has been Midnight Daydream's Brulee Sugar Cookies.

Amy, I think adding berries to any scent makes it wonderful! Susan, I am also sorry to hear about your BF situation. Sharon, we have our wind and rain back already here - total hairdo busters. I often wonder why I bother before work! Today it is Cheryl's Pomegranate Clove.

Hello! I am back from the 1990's! No computer for almost a week - you sure get a lot more done. Seems I am always looking things up when the computer is working... Glad the peachy one is good, Amy - I have a love/hate relationship with peach scents. Good news about your mom, Honeybear! Sorry she had to take a little trip in to be checked, but sounds like all will be well for the big event! Maggie, clever title! Tonight it is Scentsy - Shaka, (sandalwood, bergamot and lime)

How are things going now for your daughter, Valerie? Sometimes a day or two can make a big difference, can't it? I see green here, too! And burgundy/purple. Cyn, I still have a fair amount of Can-do - in the drawer with my other OOB fav... Crosscreek. Susan, I hope the car repair was an easy one. Tonight - it is Nene's - Lavender Chamomille

Tonight it is a missed OOB vendor - Can-Do, the scent is Lemon Magnolia

Cyn, mission accomplished with a different browser! Thanks! It is supposed to be a rainy day tomorrow, sounds like a good wax organizing day... Honeybear, it is reassuring to hear things are going well for your daughter! Amy, I love Vetiver! I just got a big jug of that scent for my Fragrance Lampe. Tonight it is a very old Scentsy - Tea Blossom. I keep waiting for them to bring that one back...

It is also getting to be candle weather here, Cookie. It is more like October weather. Ugh...I don't see the emojis at the bottom, only in the gray banner above my posting as I write. Do you find when you click on the emoji smiley face only a few load? Tonight it is a L3 Ravenclaw candle burning.

Wowie, Amy - that is quite a list! Apple Bubblegum - I had not thought about that combo before! Honeybear, I am sending mom hugs - hopefully you have your daughter Skype/facetime trained! I have Pomegranate Spice melting from Creative Enchantment. This is a scent I repeatedly buy, but I am not really a fan. Not sure why I order it from so many vendors!

Good news, Maggie! I think that HR scent combo is one of my most favorites! Was that bad grammar? Amy, are you confused not living out of a suitcase? I have a melt from Me Too going - Rose Jam type. It is pretty strong like most scents with rose in it are!

Hooray for no drama, Amy! ;) What a long day, Michele. :( Your poor dad, having to go through it all. I am glad it was not serious. Tonight it is CYS - Snowy Cranberry Cream - which sounded very good after driving home from work in a hot car! ^_^

Hi there, Starflower! Halfway to the weekend! It has been a busy week. I forgot to mention that when I went to the vet, they opened the door to the exam room where we were waiting and said "it smells like fall in here!" (Or maybe pumpkin pecan waffles, actually!) Tonight it is Red Berry Currant, Cheryl's.
