Happy October! Are you ready for Halloween?

By Hillary McNabb | Thursday, October 1, 2009, 09:54 AM

It’s the 1st of October and I’ve barely gotten started putting up my Halloween decorations. I’ve put up a few things inside, but absolutely nothing outside yet.

In the last few days I’ve spotted a few decorated homes in the area, but it’s been pretty minimal so far.

I usually like to have decorated by Oct. 1 so I can enjoy the decor all month long, but I’m feeling pretty behind this year. It takes a lot of work to get the decorations out and put up and I don’t want to go through all that work to enjoy it for only a few weeks.

How about you? Have you decorated or do you think it’s too early? Or, are you like me and just running behind schedule this year?
