Samhain/Halloween is Approaching and I am Not Even Excited.

It's odd...typically I can't WAIT for Halloween because it's my favorite holiday, but this year, I really feel nothing. No excitement, no preparedness, no anticipation. It's 3 days before Samhain/Halloween and I really could care less.

Perhaps it's a pregnancy thing. I'm "patiently" waiting for my little one to make his/her grand entrance (which isn't until February), and that leaves little room for me to be excited about anything else. Its going to be cold, I'm already finding it difficult to be comfortable walking great distances (kinda painful)...I haven't even bothered to update my children's costumes (though they already decided what they are going to be, and we already have the costumes, so I don't have to buy new ones).

I just feel...blah. I have no motivation to do anything. Maybe I'm just getting older and the mystery of the holiday is starting to lose it's magic for me. I'm also feeling nothing towards the upcoming Christmas season. I just want it to be over and done with (because I KNOW once Halloween arrives it's going to be nothing but Christmas commercials and shows on tv nonstop until Christmas. I'm glad I don't watch much tv anymore).

I really hope this isn't the end for me for holiday excitement. I want to be excited and happy for my kids, but the feeling just isn't there. At least I made the attempt last night and we finally carved their pumpkins
They had a lot of fun doing it. My son initially didn't want to empty the guts of the pumpkin, but he came around once he got going. The one on the left is his, the one on the right is my daughters.

I just really hope this blah feeling ends soon. I really don't like it. :(
