I've still got the spirit and the drive to try something new, but I don't know where I'm going to be able to do it this year. I currently have my house up for sale and god knows how long it will be "available" I'm pretty sure by October 1st (when I usually start putting things out) I will still be there. I know we all would jump to buy the "Halloween house" but I'm not so sure about prospective buyers. I have already had to move all my props and gear out to my parents house (the life size coffin in the garage might have turned some people off ;>) I would like to attempt to pull off the seance scene with the Big Scream TV projected crystal ball, but I'm not sure how I'm gonna pull it off...
Trying hard to get in the mood...
It has been a TOUGH couple years...
Started a new job last spring that took me away from my family (and brand new baby boy) for 4 months, and we lived in temporary housing until the week of Halloween... then we moved into a rental house, so we only put out a couple things. First time in 6 years we didn't have our big annual bash, too.
This year, we are still in the rental house and our old house has yet to sell some 16 months later. It has been hard to get into the spirit. Normally I would have been working on a new project and prepping hard in the garage by now. I have yet to do one thing. A few months ago, I went thru my stuff with great intentions but never followed thru.
I haven't even had the stomach to shop around and see what's out there... normally I'm prowling around looking for the first sightings and stalking websites for new releases!
I need some inspiration! Anybody struggling with motivation? I've been wanting to plan our party, but in a new town I'm not sure what type of turnout we'd get, and it would be mostly work associates...
