Thread: First Halloween sighting in stores...

Tweet

I saw ONE bat/spider type eyemask, and ONE set of some small gel stickers of witches........but they was as the bottom of a bargain tray, so I believe it was left over from last year!(and they were a bit...erm....rubbish anyway!)

Yeah, our Hobby Lobby had two eisles full of fall foliage & pumpkins already.

Now, no one hurt me, but.....I don't think I'm ready for this yet!! Halloween is the most wonderful time of year for me, but right now I just have too much going on and I'm too stressed to think about it much.

I am planning on quitting my job in August, so by then I plan to be a happier, more relaxed person and then I can spend some quality time on Halloween!! It's always held a magic for me that is sometimes hard to explain. That's why I love coming to this forum, everyone here understands the fascination with this kooky & spooky holiday!

Ya'll are cracking me up! I'm so glad that I found this forum. I actually just joined today. Finally...people who feel the same way that I do about Halloween. It just gets in your bones, doesn't it?

Yes..it does. It gets in your bones and then it eats them away until all that's left is a quivering, putrid, jellylike blob of prop making ideas...
Welcome.

WHAT did you just say?!?! Jk. I understand completely. The stress of life can take up all your thoughts. I hope by this October you'll be passed it and can fully enjoy the season!

Today, my 21 year old daughter and I were walking through Hobby Lobby. They were clearancing all the summer stuff and I asked her, "you know what happens after 4th of July?" she says no. I tell her, "All the Halloween stuff starts coming out!". She just stares at me and says, "I wonder if there's a 12 step program for what you have...". I quickly inform her that there is not and even if there were, I have no interest in being cured!
Don't know where I went wrong with that kid...

HEY !!!!! I resemble that remark ... lmao

leota, i can relate 100%. my daughter says i burnt her out on halloween years ago. her son though is as bad an addict as me. at 1 year old, her daughter would already crawl up in my lap whenever munsters or adams family came on. my daughter says that worries her. looks like the influence bug might bite the grandaughter too. she's three now and most stuff scares her, except cute stuff like crumpton pumpkins, and she still likes the adams and munsters. who knows, maybe she'll be a halloween nut as well. guess my daughter loses on this account.

i am SO going to Michaels today now thanks u guys lol
