Nov. 1st, 2014 01:00 pmScott bought Cordelia a plastic shield to carry as part of her costume. Cordelia was dubious about it, but Scott rigged it so that she didn't have to use her hands to carry it, and Scott and I both thought she needed something beyond her Camp Halfblood t-shirt.
It was pretty cold. According to Scott it both rained and snowed while he and Cordelia were out. The other kids Cordelia went with (her friends from down the street) all dressed as Arctic explorers. Cordelia was more than a little envious of how warm they seemed to be. She wore her coat but kept it open so that people could see her t-shirt. She also wore my boots (hers from last year no longer fit and really wouldn't have suited the costume).
Cordelia wasn't out for quite an hour. There were very few kids trick or treating. I think we got about a dozen all told, and the youngest had to be at least seven. Usually, we get a lot of younger kids. We had the front door closed, and we had no jack o'lantern. I don't know if that affected how many kids we got. We did have our porch light on, and that's usually enough.
We had a volleyball match this morning. Cordelia's team won all three games but only just. Scott took a lot of pictures.
After the game, we went to Rite Aid for flu shots. Cordelia was on the verge of panic up until she got her shot. She's always terrified of shots. This year, our insurance covered all three of us (that or Rite Aid forgot to ask us to pay). In years past, we have had to pay for Scott and Cordelia while Medicare covered me.
