The Fall Ahead and My Favorite Holiday
This past spring was a whirlwind straight into summer and now that summer is coming to an end, it looks like the fall will be moving at the same pace.
We started the spring with quite a few weddings, and the associated showers, parties, etc. Scheduling got pretty crazy and we ended up booking up months ahead of time to do anything. It's slowed down a bit over the past few weeks. I mentioned to my wife that we've either been out of town or entertained people every weekend since early April.
Last night, the wife and I sat down and started working on the Fall calendar. We're now pretty much booked up until mid-October. It's really kind of a pain in the butt to have to tell people all the time that you're not accepting appointments for 6-8 weeks. Sadly, I've found it's the only way we can get everything done we need to get done and see any friends.
In setting up the calendar, I noticed that Halloween, once again, comes at the end of October. Or Shocktober if you're a DJ on crappy radio.
I'm pondering whether or not to have another Halloween party this year. I swore last year that I absolutely wouldn't after the debacle that year's party was... but now I'm thinking about it. I'm leaning towards it, but the wife is strongly against it. We'll see. The plan may be to put all efforts into Halloween night events for the trick or treaters.
We'll see.
