This year it feels like Halloween really isn’t happening as much as it has in past years. I may not have been out as much but I’m not seeing as much of decorations, festivities, etc. even at stores.
Also cant believe Christmas starts this Sunday!
I have felt this way for years. Christmas has taken over already and gets out earlier and earlier each year.
A coworker said Happy Samhain today in the group chat. Made me happy.
And I've made sure my airpods are charged so I don't have to put up with the crappy music next time I go shopping. After Halloween finishes, I always start looking forward to January.
Yeah. I never do Halloween anymore. I did it when I was a kid, but dressing up or putting up decorations is just completely foreign to me. Not even remotely on my radar lol
This is first year I am not dressing up for Halloween or going to a party. I did go to a Samhain event last weekend.
Completely get it! I stopped caring about Halloween a long time ago. And I've never had trick or treaters anywhere I've lived
My best guess is the economy is having an impact on how much / how many people are decorating their homes and yards for Halloween this year.
I live in a middle class neighborhood that has undergone a lot of generational turnover over the past 8-10 years. With more younger families, I had been noticing more and more homes / yards decorating for Halloween until this year. Hardly anyone has decorated this year.
Same. At my gym yesterday, one of the staffers in DIY Superwoman outfit confided how she couldn’t justify an $80 costume. I agreed. OTOH, a neighbor who mows their lawn once a year threw two strings of Christmas lights onto a shrub. In August. Looks like glowing drool. At least it’s something?
@joyouscuddlist yep, they put Christmas lights up here in some places as early as August.
It's today, I think
Happy Dia De Los Muertos
He claimed to be a ghost, but I could see right through him.
I've never had trick or treaters
Lol! I get some at my house every year depending on the weather, and most of them hàve been teenagers. 😀😀😀
It's okay, my son is 17 yrs old and is refusing to give up trick r treating. At some point, I may have to stop him...Then again there's worst he could be doing besides ringing doorbells for candy! 😜🍫😆🍫
