October's Haunting Fragrances

Laurie--so sorry to hear about your friend. At least her suffering is over, but it just begins for all who knew and loved her. Hugs to you [smilie=_smileyfacehugging_]

 

 

Just lit my Village Marshmallow Cocoa candle for the first time. It is chilly and dreary here and hot cocoa with marshmallows seems just the thing. Maybe I'll have the real thing later. Also have on Village Vanilla Cupcake.

Thanks, Trep . . . it's a little unnerving when someone so close to your own age passes . . .

:(

I did take 10 minutes this morning to go through some stash bins and pull some fall scents for my fall box. . . .

I put a Fall Hayride candle by Glade in my bathroom - strong scent!

In the main part of the house, I have Spiced Apples & Peaches by Victoria's Designer Creations . . . now I got these in July of 2012 and they did not hold up very well. The tart cups started to break down, they lost the center of the bottom, and the wax is SUPER soft and mushy to handle. They're not giving off a stellar throw either, I'll know better when I leave the house and come back - note to self: use these guys up fast!

Yes, Laurie--it really hits home when people your own age pass away. A man from my high school class dropped over dead the other day and that was a shock.

 

 

This afternoon may be sugar overload around here on the scents. I have the Village Marshmallow Cocoa going (very nice chocolate scent) plus BBW Marshmallow Fireside and Yankee Vanilla Caramel. I am thinking I shouldn't have done the BBW one as it is really putting out the throw but we will see.

Just wanted to pop in and say

[smilie=th_Hello_]

I am still in frazzled mode and barely melting/burning. I keep saying I have to go thru my stash and pull out the fall-ish ones, but I never get the time to do the digging.

 

I'm so sorry to read about Koosh.

[smilie=th_sorry_]

I am very attached to my pets and dread *the day* for all of them.

A friend of mine from animal rescue passed away, I am so sad about it, even though I know her suffering is over (she had cancer) - she was one of the most selfless people I've ever known and the animals at the shelter are going to miss her greatly, as will I. Her service/burial is this Saturday and I'm a little bit freaking out.

 

I am determined to melt/burn something today, so I hope to report back later.

[smilie=th_prod_107_1676]

I'm so sorry to hear about your friends passing. I am sure her passing will leave very big shoes to fill at the shelter and to her friends. I am sure she was greeted by all of the fur babies she has helped through the years that are over the Rainbow Bridge.

Laurie, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. It's so hard to bear when the truly amazing people in this world are taken. Seems like this year has been especially filled with bad news in that way :( Thank you for your kind words about Koosh.

 

Weirdly, I don't get much throw at all from the Glade Fall Hayride, even in my small living room. I like it a lot though and need to pick up a few more before they disappear!

 

Burning B&BW Pumpkin Hayride this evening, which is turning out to be quite warm still.

Hello all!

 

Trep, I'm so happy to hear about your husband doing well!th_dancing_smile.gif

Laurie, I'm sorry to hear about your friend's passing. I'm always reminded when things like this happen how truly special everyone in my life is (especially around the holidays too). th_cuddle-1.gif

 

Today just slipped away from me- hence the late post! I was truly blessed to have both baby boys sleep for three hours today at the same time- wow! Talk about a much needed break. th_avatar_4219.gif

I melted McCall's Country Store from my swap buddy and loved it! I need this in a candle next fall. I also melted Spice & Sour Cream Coffee Cake from Granny's and loved it. I'm sad she's closed.

 

Goodnight, everyone! thzzz003.gif
