Our town so kindly allocated 60 minutes for our kids to trick or treat this year. Isn’t that sweet?
It wasn’t to bad, but our youngest really wanted to visit more houses, as long as Daddy was carrying him LOL
The image is all the candy/chips etc they collected in that one hour period. Looks like there is enough for a while 
.
I am sure I can find enough stuff to put in my desk drawer at work for a while… LOL
Happy Halloween!

That is right. JobysBlog.com recieved (at the time of this post) 335 drops. I am both excited and befuddled. I hope I don’t lose any of my normal droppers because I was unable to drop on them.
I understand there being a limit on the number of drops you can make per day, but I think EntreCard could at least make it possible to retaliate on the drops you received. I see it like this; I can drop 300 if I receive 300 or less. If I receive more than 300 then I should be able to give those Blogs the the reciprocal drops. Once I reach the number of drops I have received, I can no longer drop.
As the graphic shows, the number of clicks on my ad today ended up being almost half of what I have total. I am sure that has a lot to do with the number of drops JobysBlog received today. Thank you to the sites I my ad ran on today.
It is bittersweet to be in this situation. I hope there is some way to keep everyone coming back.
Let me know your thoughts. Do you agree we should be able to drop “one for one” on each of our droppers if the total is above 300?

WOW – I cannot believe the amount of sugar my kids have been handed in the past 48 hours.
Sunday morning they were both given a small treat bag from one of the ladies at church. She is a sweetheart of a woman who bakes like a 5 star chef. She has Diabetes, yet she is constantly giving my kids lollipops and candy. I guess if she can’t eat it she will give it to the kids so she can have it via osmosis LOL.
Sunday night we went to the Fall Festival at church. Before the party started, one lady had given my sons each two lollipops! They then competed in some games where they won more candy. Just before leaving guess what they handed out… Yup bags of candy!!!
Last night was the oldest boys Cub Scout halloween party. One look around the room I swear to you I saw what could have been collectively weighed as 30 pounds of candy. There was candy in bowls, candy in bags, candy hanging from string as part of the games…
I have decided not to buy any candy to passout this Halloween, I will just pour all of the candy they have gotten so far into a bowl and pass it out to the kids as they come to my door!
The good thing is, my kids are not big candy eaters. The sad thing is, I AM!!!
