Halloween always looks like so much fun! That’s only half the story. For me, it is fraught with pressure. One needs to have a clever, original costume. Will I measure up? Will my character be recognized instantly? Maybe I will feel like I half made it . So much for looking like fun.
I can relate to having mixed feelings about Halloween… not always loving it and sometimes dressing up. The older I’ve gotten I think the more permission I’ve given myself to be creative and dress up.
A few years ago I went to the Halloween parade in Woodstock dressed as a day of the dead skeleton
How *young* is too young to hate Halloween because I’ve hated it almost all my life! I think it’s because of the Nair bombing years. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ anyway, no Halloween for me!

Oh, yeah, and egging, and toilet papering. The bullying aspect. Always hated that.
Come to think of it I guess I started hating Halloween when I moved to Long Island, which was where the bullying began! Mystery solved!

I will dress as an older which means all I need to do is get dressed.
Of course you will. 👵🏻 😂
