Halloween 2018 Skeleton Pirate




This was the first year since having children that I didn't have anyone to take Trick or Treating or make a costume for. I was still going to dress up but nobody else did. They are all too old now. Next year I am going to hand out candy from this spot. I love Halloween and I don't care how old I am , I will still dress up. Maybe I should go to Cosplay conventions.

  I actually got the idea from Pirate of the Caribbean ride in Disneyland. Also some help from the Haunted Mansion. I can write this one up too if anyone is interested.

Mr. Freeze, Two Face, Catwoman and Riddler Halloween 2017




Too bad I couldn't find the hat and mask for Riddler but Mr. Freeze and  Two Face came out really well. I wish I could have shown you the video of it at night. His whole gun and back containers lighted up. Hubby killed the phone and lost the pictures and video. I will write up on how I did both costumes soon.

Kettlebell and Push ups Exercise


I was looking for something like this and ended up making up one myself. I wanted to do a kettlebell swing with push ups. Too many other exercises incorporate so many exercises in a set or exercises that physically hurt me because of injured body parts.

You can do this 3 times to however many sets you want to do.You can do 10 kettlebell swings and 5 push ups. You can switch it to however you like. You can also switch up what type of push ups. You switch up to a double kettlebell swing or an outside body double kettlebell swing.

I really like this one. It kicks my butt. Hope you like it too.
