Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well on this Thanksgiving Eve. My favorite workday of the year is here. It has not been anything short of spectacular. Brought in our bagels and donuts. Leaving shortly. Happy Halloween!

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! You can see above now we have lost a 300+ level count. I always love seeing that.

I'm up early today and here in about an hour Abby and I are heading up to the Park for the Turkey Trot / Tot Trot. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving, spooky fans!
 
Hello Halloween Fans! Happy Thanksgiving to you all. Many of us share a common love for Halloween and Thanksgiving (plus the holiday season). They are truly all linked. Spooky Season started it off amazing as always to bring us to this point. Happy Halloween (who else says that on Thanksgiving?)!

Good Morning Halloween Friends! Happy Black Friday!

I've already popped over and visited the brand-new shiny Thanksgiving Thread. So exciting to have a new one and start counting down to Thanksgiving again!

You can see on our counts above that we will be hitting milestones again very soon - just three days away from the 150 DAYS TO SPOOKY SPRING milestone, and then in one week from now, we will reach our second 300-Day Milestone in this thread, the 300 DAYS TO HALLOWEEN milestone day.

I told you that time is still moving on even if we aren't "hardcore" chasing these counts right now!

I hope everyone has a great day!
 
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are all doing well. It is a windy day out there. We are heading to the mall now for lunch and some Black Friday shopping. I know some avoid it but we really do most of our shopping online so it's not so bad. Happy Halloween!

Were there any great deals?

Good Morning Halloween Friends!

24 degrees outside right now and believe it or not we have our first forecast of accumulating SNOW on Tuesday. So today I'm going to make sure my snowblower is OK and starts up, and it should be because it is nearly brand-new and I only ran it three or 4 times last year. Then I'll see if the one down at my Grandparents' house will run (It's an ancient beast from the 1980's lol).

Our next milestone here in this thread will be on MONDAY, when we reach 150 DAYS TO HALFOWEEN. That one will be an exciting one.

Happy Saturday to everyone!!
 
our first forecast of accumulating SNOW on Tuesday.
I woke up to 3" of snow this morning and they are calling for 7-9" more before Monday. Usually we spend most of December anticipating the first inch of snow so I guess we have brought it on ourselves, but it does seem early to worry about shoveling snow when I still have Thanksgiving Apple Pie left to eat!
 
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well. We cleaned up the house today, prepared the Christmas decorations. It was a cold day out there. We didn't even reach 40 degrees I don't think and we had a bit of a breeze this morning. Damian didn't care as he walked at the park. Happy Halloween!

Happy Milestone Eve to everyone once again! TOMORROW we celebrate 150 DAYS TO HALFOWEEN. That feels kind of close-ish, doesn't it? I'll be honest here, Spooky Spring and Halfoween are kind of the major dates I'm focusing on right now, even in the back of my mind since my major priority is enjoying Christmas Season 100%.

We woke up to a dusting of snow on the ground! I didn't even know it was calling for it. We are still supposed to get 3-6 inches on Tuesday, so today I will mess with the snowblowers one more time to make sure they start reliably.

I hope everyone has a great Sunday!
 
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well. It's a chilly day but without the wind it's not as bad as yesterday. We have clouds though but temperatures are warming into the 40s. We have some showers coming up this afternoon. Happy Halloween!

150 Days to Halfoween(new).jpg

Happy Milestone Monday! Good Morning Pumpkin People!

You can see from our image above that it is now 150 Days to Halfoween!

While the focus right now is obviously on Christmas time, can you just imagine what it will feel like when we finally see Spooky Spring pop up on the horizon? 121 days from today but we will start feeling the "pull" well before that, probably in late February or early March.

Now that we are in the final month of 2025, my mind naturally starts to try and wander to after Christmas and that first JOL Day of 2026. But I don't spend much time thinking about it now, because I don't want to take away from Christmas! But there will be a time and place for everything!

I hope everyone has a great Monday! Enjoy being in the first week of December!
 
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well on this Monday. It is December. Think about this it will not be November again until we go through an ENTIRE Halloween Season. Doesn't that make you smile? Happy Halloween!

Good Morning Halloween Friends! Monday is in the rear view mirror and we're crawling through another week. It seems that no matter where we are in the year, the ultimate destination is always the weekend.

Our next milestone in this thread will be on FRIDAY, when we reach 300 DAYS TO OCTOBER. Beginning on Saturday, we will have only one more count that is in the 300's! Remember, we started this new thread with THREE counts that were all well north of 300! And on Saturday, there will be only ONE left!

I hope everyone has a great day!
 
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well. It's raining here but a bit icy too. Some snowflakes mixed in but nothing too crazy. Not a nice day out but it's December. It is busy at work today as it is everyday this time of year. Happy Halloween!
