Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Halloween and it is by far my favorite time of year. But I was explaining to my mother tonight how Halloween is like Christmas for me. It's the best, I love it, but I do SO much work. Leading up to it there is a lot to get done, and then all day long the day-of I'm cooking for multiple people, setting up the inside and outside, getting ready for trick or treaters, doing mine and everyone else's costumes and make-up, and on and on and on.
I'm sad when it's done, but there's also a big sense of relief. All the good stuff is over, but fortunately so is all of the planning, paying, and stress, at least for a little while. I know I can kick back and let the rest of my family do most of the work for the next couple of holidays!
Anyone else feel this yet? Or at all? How big of a toll did the season take on you this year?
