it really is! halloween is different for me each year…i either am excited to think about a costume and what to do, or i don’t care at all about the holiday and would prefer the porch light off with no candy to give. it’s a take it or leave it kind of day for me, you know? just give me turkey and pumpkin pie, then stockings and christmas trees.
this year we actually have a couple places to go over the weekend…a friends’ house on saturday night and then a festive work party on sunday night. we have our fingers crossed for an apartment that we’ll see on saturday as well. look at us, being so social! (i know we’ll be exhausted come monday; and to think, people do stuff every weekend!)
although i am most definitely an introverted person, i’m hoping being around lots of people and getting lots done will help give me a boost…i am in a serious creative & motivation rut right now. (it might have to do with the boxes of stuff starting to pile around the house with nowhere to go)
but, last week or so, i got our costumes ready (we are geeks, you’ll see). wednesday we carved our trader joe’s pumpkins. and all that’s left is to grab a bag of candy, assuming we get a trick or treater or two on monday?
hope you have a great weekend.
thanks for reading, please share!

Same here all around. Before we had the boy, we decided to go out to dinner to a fancy restaurant one night last minute, and couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t busier. It was Halloween. In the past few years I’ve been making costumes but we haven’t had to go out anywhere, and we rarely get a trick-or-treater. This year we will probably visit our neighbors and make short rounds before we come back home to cozy up. Sound like you have some enjoyable plans- have fun! And good luck with the apartment!!
