Trying to bask in the holiday spirit, but those off-season thoughts keep trying to rain on my parade. Halloween and Christmas are like my personal superheroes, swooping in to rescue me from the clutches of depression. These holidays aren't just events; they're my escape routes, my beacons of hope. As much as I wish I didn't need them to keep my spirits up, I can't help but feel grateful for the extra boost they bring to my days. Here's to hoping the magic lingers a little longer, and those off-season thoughts take a backseat for now.
Halloween 2024 Countdown!

My after-Halloween order from Oriental Trading has arrived and it I will pack it away so I can fill some eggs for next year's Great Pumpkin Egg Hunt the week after Christmas. Always a fun activity!
Home from the bazaar now, and I'm really surprised and happy to say that there was a lot of fall and even Halloween themed items in there with the main Christmas stuff. Just goes to show you how many people are like us and consider Halloween to be part of the whole overall season. Have a great afternoon!
I love that you do that! Keeps attention on the future!
The Off-Season Thread, you, and rest of the folks over there help me avoid the PCBs and as each holiday passes I keep that in the back of mind.

Good Morning Halloween Friends! Happy Sunday to you all! We are standing on the doorstep to Thanksgiving now. Only a few days stand in the way. I think most people are going to have a short week, so that's going to make the few work days we have go by fast. My office is closing at noon on Wednesday, and I'm really looking forward to it, I've never been off that many days in a row for Thanksgiving.
Our next milestone is on Tuesday, and it will be the 300 Days to Halloween Season milestone. That means that as we enter into Thanksgiving, we will have only two counts out of our main seven that are still in the 300's. One day at a time.
Have a great Sunday!

Good Morning Halloween Friends! Today should be its own holiday. "The Great Turkey Thaw" has began nearly everywhere.
It's a short week for most people. Our office is closed for three days over Thanksgiving. So today and tomorrow is all I've got, then I enjoy a FIVE DAY WEEKEND. I've never had that in my life.
We are going to hit another milestone tomorrow, too. That being the 300 DAYS TO HALLOWEEN SEASON. As we reach the mid week, we will have only two out of our original 7 counts that are still in the 300's. It's very, very slow progress here in November. Time is still moving, but you really wont see the "bonus months" do their thing until we get into late December. And trust me, nobody wants to wish this time away right now.
Have a great day, friends! If you have began the great turkey thaw, good luck and happy thawing!

My motto too.
Maybe slow progress will mean that the time between now and Christmas will slow down too. We can only hope.

Happy Milestone Tuesday Folks! You can see from above that we have now hit the 300 day marker until our next Halloween Season officially begins! That's September 16th, 2024, in case anyone is wondering the date. Autumn officially begins on Sunday the 22nd. Nobody wants to wait the whole week so that's why we always "observe" the start on that first Monday before. And that's the "official" beginning lol. Some of us in here (myself included) feel like Fall technically begins with the arrival of August aka "Fall Pre-Season".
Slow and steady is the progress right now as we continue through November.
Have a great Tuesday!

Good Morning Halloween Friends! It's exciting this morning and seeing that now only two counts out of our original 7 are still in the 300's. Still a long way to go on all of them but whether we realize it or not, we are making progress.
I also believe that the numbers themselves have distinctly different "feels" and their own sort of Vibe / Aura:
Over 300 Days - A long journey. Numbers track very slowly. Thinking of over 300 days to anything probably evokes "sad" feels.
299 - 200 Days - Progress is finally realized. A major chunk of the "hard" time has passed, now we are settling in to slow and steady.
199 - 100 Days - Time is moving like its been greased. Don't wish it away too much, it's already going fairly fast.
Under 100 Days - Be very careful here, it will be gone in a flash if we aren't careful!
In other news, folks, It's THANKSGIVING EVE. What a grand day. My Five day weekend begins today. I am excited for that long break from work, I've never had time off of that length since I went on my honeymoon back in 2010.
Have a great day, friends!
