And my life is made. A few weeks ago I told him in passing that I always wanted a flaily arm guy like car dealerships in the movies. I was sitting on the porch with the neighbors when he got home from work and 5 minutes later, here we are. Not just a flaily arm guy. The tallest one he could find. This is going to be the best halloween ever. The neighbors might hate me but the other neighbors kids think I'm the coolest 😂😂 His only concern is what I'll come up with to top this. Its HUGE. What have you done that is a bit on the ridiculous side lately?  |

I saw Halloween costumes of the flailing arm guy at Target last week. If they have adult sizes, he needs one to hand out candy that night!

I want one!
I was thinking about starting a thread about how we (purposely) make our children roll their eyes. Mine is that I wave and say hi to all flaily-arm guys we drive past. I think I'm funny.

Ahem. I believe the technical term is "wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man."  I don't know how to embed a youtube video, so this will have to do: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHXvMcLrLSY |

That is awesome! Those things always make me happy when I drive by them in town. Your house will definitely be popular on Halloween.

I haven’t done it yet but I’m saving to buy the inflatable TRex costume and then am going to make work videos.

I love it, StephDRebel!  How is your husband’s health these days? I’ve been thinking of him, hoping that he is doing better and able to eat again. |

You and your husband are just delightful! He needs a proper name though,” Flaily Arm Guy” doesn’t really roll off the tongue.
As to your question about what ridiculous thing you have done lately, I get to work with 3-5 year olds everyday. My working hours are a series of ridiculous events and “did I really just have to tell a child not to lick the chalk off the ground?” moments. The other day we did cabbage leaf prints and then wore the extra leaves on our head while sampling some non painted leaves. That was sort of extra ridiculous.

He is able to eat just about everything with only a few exceptions now and hes had a couple of small things going on but overall he hasn't had any major flare ups since we moved. We are feeling optimistic. Thank you for thinking of him. |

I honestly don't think I have ever seen one in town, but my neighbor let me borrow one (he owns and auction company) for a garage sale. I'll have to tell him to put it up for Halloween.  I love that your DH made your wish come true. |
