Awww. I am already planning for next Halloween. Never stop doing it so you never get withrawls.
But did go looking today for some Christmas decor.

Hehe, or should I say hoho :) It feels a bit strange seeing these familiar names on this forum....especially in these colors.

I like the colors - they're nice and cheery.

This is funny. As I'm packing away all the Halloween props, I find myself looking at them differently, like how they'd look dressed in different colors...
Oh thanks Larry, here we go again!

Hello weekliers!!!

Hmm...somehow whiskey and cigars don't seem quite right here...at least, not yet...

How about some eggnog, with a touch of brandy in it?
Or...would brandy with a touch of eggnog in it be better?

Time to move some of the furniture around, add a pool table and juke box...make this place so #$%^ing jolly that good ol' St. Nic himself would feel like flopping down and having a drink...

First, the amount of posts, then the "no shirts" party. LOL

Hope everyone is having a good day. I hate this part, the teardown.

Just finished bringing in all of the halloween stuff from outside. :(

How long do you think I can keep the bats and "black" decor inside up before I am taken to be a nutjob by my perfect neighbors? ;)

Just when you think you know all your friends over at the Halloween forum, you find out we all have a "light" side to us. Very disturbing...

Mummy deer-est

11-06-2007, 07:40 AM

Is it disturbing that we might be all bloody and black on the outside, but we have a nice hot chocolate-y, marshmallowy core? Um, I guess so! It's that christmas spirit -- does it every time for me.

But it is funny that I have my bloody hand right out next to my christmas catalogs!

I'm just amazed at how many from Halloween forum are also into Christmas, would never have guessed. But then I'm easily distracted by shiny things...

Good morning everyone! I'll get the last of my Halloween stuff put away today and then I can start thinking about those Christmas presents I need to make. I feel the need to play with clay, so methinks some sculpting of ornaments is what I'll do.

Mummy deer-est

I know, I feel like Thanksgiving is being by-passed totaly. No mention of it anywhere.

There was a thread about Turducken over on Halloweenforum. Do people decorate for Thanksgiving?

I don't, not really....

I may have some "autumn" foil wrapped Reese's in a candy dish, but that's about it.

Since Mr. W's family is in England, we only have my family around. Two years ago, they gave me sh*t for not using the good china "Oh, your family isn't good enough for the good stuff, huh?". So last year, I pulled out the china, but as a joke, put out the leftover Hot Wheels paper napkins from my son's birthday, LOL

Then it got nuts when my cousin stopped by on her way home. They wound up spending the night.

This year will be quiet, just my stepmom and brothers. It's just a lot of "decorating" after Halloween and before Christmas.

The smell and sight of the turkey seems to be sufficient!!!!

The whor-iest! LOL I love lists and what can I say? I think this is a great one with the wonderful people here. King Moonracer next? LOL

11-08-2007, 08:49 AM

I have left out all of my uncut pumpkins and gourds. Well, a lot my inside halloween stuff is stillup, but I will leave those things out even when the bats and bleeding candles are gone! I commented on the turducken thread -- have heard very not good things about undercooked ones. Yuck.

Sickie Ickie

Well, I'm planning on putting up a giant turkey on th elawn cut from foam. It makes it easier for Halloween if I do almost every holiday a little. That way the neighbors can't give me greif about doing the Halloween display every year. After all, they were okay with all the other decorations for the holidays. Bwa-hahahhahahahahaaaa

LOL - thank you very much! Yes, this is our first and we both really wanted a boy! I'm quite pleased!

Off to the Manheim Steamroller concert (It was the Trans siberian Orchestra. I don't know why I kept typing Manheim Steamroller!!)! I'll give a report on monday since I'm off tomorrow and I cancelled out internet at home. Have a great weekend!

About Thanksgiving decor....I put up some fall colored Garlan (Leaves) around the end of September and leave them up until Dec....does that count?

Rose- Congrats again on another forum.....I can almost feel your excitement all the way over here.

Good morning all... Happy Friday! Dreading the cost of gas for the drive to Anaheim tomorrow. Tried talking the wife into taking the motorcycle but she wouldn't go for it, 420 miles each way is a bit much for her these days. Hope you all have a great and safe and healthy weekend.
CC - Found the motors, call you tomorrow.

Jack -- I agree with spook, and we do the same -- fall fake leaves, gourds, and a fall colored bouqet I recieved. It reminds me that there is still one more holiday before Christmas.

Have a great day, everyone!

Congrats BlackRose! I have 3 boys! You're gonna love it! There is nothing better than having them come to you, put their little hands around your neck, look at you with those big beautiful eyes, and say I love you mommy. Even when they're 19, 14 and 11.

With temps still hovering around 80 we're still running the a/c. It's supposed to be in the low 60's this weekend so at least it'll feel more like holiday season.

Just when we're finally going to get some fall weather, we're headed to SoCal for the week. Oh well! (I'm just down the road from you in Suisun)
