Decorating

Today I pulled out our Halloween decorations. I remember hanging the things outside last year, like 2 kids. Hanging ghosts and pumpkins..Laughing, making fun of ourselves, being an old retired couple, decorating for Halloween as if we had kids..   And I remember taking them down and putting them away..I remember the day, never in a million years thinking by this time next year, you'd be gone forever! I wonder, if Holloween decorating is haveing this kind of impact, how will I ever get through Thanksgiving and Christmas..Oh my God, What a nightmare....

Halloween was my husbands favorite holiday! He decorated more than we did for Christmas. The decorations filled a whole storage room. he made chili took the day off work...that first Halloween hurt so bad. I gave the decorations to my kids. I decorate for fall but skip Halloween. I understand your pain oh so well. Hugs!!!
