[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to enjoy it as a kid and have fond memories of Halloween. As an adult it seems the adults around me all have a love for Halloween and Fall in general. My neighbor was saying it’s her favorite holiday. A couple of good friends, my husband and teenage daughter have Fall as their favorite season. They’ve been mentioning this more and more lately as we get into Fall.

The closer it gets the more depressing it seems. Costume shopping for my kids is probably the most exciting part for me but the day of Halloween it just seems not exciting at all.

Depressing probably isn’t the right word but it seems like I have such a letdown feeling about Halloween and Fall. Maybe it’s the end of Summer I feel or I generally don’t like Fall? Thanksgiving is my least favorite holiday also.

I don’t know what changed over the years but I just don’t enjoy Halloween or Fall anymore. [/quote]

Yeah, someone asked me a few weeks ago if I'd decorated yet and I wanted to say what are you talking about? It used to be just a few houses, now it's an expectation?

I actually like fall and am kind of neutral about Halloween, but I don't like how early you have to plan costumes for the kids and how constrained you are to see leaves because it's such a short window during which so much else is happening while also making sure everyone has clothes/coats/hats/gloves to fit. So it's too many opportunities to fail all at once. All while I can't sleep as well with the heat on.[/quote]
