Starting to Get Spooked

It's that time of year again! Today is the 1st day of October and Halloween is already on the brain. Great. Time for me to be scared just like every year. Don't get me wrong, I love the trick-or-treating, dressing up in cool costumes and hit up every Halloween carnival in town kinda Halloween.

What I am not a fan of is the scary part of Halloween. I do NOT do Haunted Houses. I don't like the awful masks that some people loooove to pull out every year and scare small children and one Rebecca Cruz with. Nor am I a fan of that one channel on t.v. that insists on "counting down" to Halloween by showing the scariest movies ever late at night, usually when I'm awake all by myself flippin' through the channels because I can't sleep and looking for something to watch. I'm not ashamed to admit I am a chicken. I was the "scaredy-cat" that the kids teased growing up. I blame my fear on the fact that I grew up with two older brothers who lived for scaring their little sister every chance they got. So if you are one of those people that loves to decorate your house like an actual Haunted House with the scariest props in your front yard, you will be happy to know that I will NOT be knocking on your door with my little one on Halloween. I'll skip the treats at your house, thank you!
