October Minus Four


No, you aren’t seeing things. Yes, I’ve activated my Halloween theme.
No, it isn’t October yet. Yes, I know things look odd.
No, I haven’t lost my mind. Yes, I am still here, although like a ghost I appear and disappear on a whim.
No, I’m not a ghost. Yes, I mean that!
No, I’m not actually, properly back yet. Yes, I am trying to get onto the blog and into Blogland more.
No, there won’t be any Selfie photos in this post. Yes, I mean that.
No, I’m not joking. Yes, I really am being serious.
No, trust me. There will be no Selfie image on this post. Yes, there will be an image though. This one:


No, that isn’t a Selfie of me on a good day. Yes, it is a witch.
No, she isn’t usually green. Yes her hair is like that… methinks she’s cast a spell on me.

Hmmm.

Can Halloween get any earlier? I spotted Easter Eggs for sale the other day, so your guess is a good as mine.

The Mansion’s now all decked out for Halloween. It’s even started with the creaky floorboards and doors. Eerie laughter as the lights go out. Cobwebs hang in the corner of every room. Eyes within the paintings that hang in the Great Hall follow you as you walk by. And the clocks have started to strike thirteen.

Hopefully, we’ll have some fun, Feel Good, and have a great Halloween.

Let October begin!!!

    Nothing like getting to the party early…or starting the party early…or something like that.
    As Prenin states, there is no way in the world you’ll miss Halloween’s arrival. You’re all set and ready whereas the rest of us must start dragging out the boxes… 😀 😀 😀

        The early bird catches the worm…unless that’s not to his liking.

    Was that a secret Witch Selfie?!! You should always plan ahead in plenty of time of the October activities! So many autumn leaves flying around your plans might become buried amongst them all if you don’t start early 🙂
