Well guys, it's time for the special evening update and December review.
First things first, I have confirmed reports from various parts of the USA that EASTER CANDY is arriving in stores and being seen on shelves. This is incredible because this is over 3 months early, and if you remember my "Candy Cycle" chart, this means that technically, Halloween Candy is "up next". Now I'm not delusional, I know that we are basically 7 full months away from that. But if Easter Candy is out, Halloween Candy is what would come after that.
Now, time for our December review. December for me was everything that I hoped it would be, and also everything that I hoped it WOULDN'T be, mainly that it would go by as fast as I was afraid it would. And it did. I think the older I get, the faster it goes. It bought us Christmas, which Is still my first love and I think the greatest season and Holiday out of all of them. But I love Fall and Halloween, and in this brain, you CAN'T get to Christmas without passing through Fall and Halloween. And at this house, Halloween is every bit a part of Christmas time, as my lit up "Halloween grove" outside would indicate, as well as my ceramic Halloween Tree that has taken up space with the rest of the ceramic trees inside still on display.
December also brought us Halloween season milestones. We passed the 150 Days to Spooky Spring milestone back on December 1st, and just a few days later, on December 5th, we hit the 300 Days to October milestone.
Tomorrow we will have our January preview. But I want to tell you all I have an odd feeling right now of contentment, and yet growing anticipation for 2023. I am excited to get back to MMC Special Days and chasing milestones. This is not at all how I felt I would feel when I entered this week, much less when I laid my head down on Christmas evening with PCB's washing over me. Have a great evening and see you tomorrow!
