When do you get into "Halloween mode"?

What do you like to decorate with? That bucket of blood?

As per usual our weather is starting to heat up, after all it's autumn. :x
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I'm in the mode now! I can't wait! :D

We're gunna be ordering a couple of new decorations online next week, then more the following week online again. In mid - late September when my local supermarket gets their decorations in we'll buy a couple from their to finish off, or we'll get some in from one of the fancy dress or party shops. :)

We do the same with our Halloween decorations as we do with our Christmas ones & that's to build them up over time year on year.

:D :D :D ROLL ON HALLOWE'EN!!! :D :D :D

Well, now that is't already September, I will be startng my Halloween house cleaning and gathering fire wood for the big day, but It is supposed to be 95 degrees today and 95 degrees tomorrow with rain tomorrow evening. I am hoping it cools down for my trip to the old neighborhood on Saturday, but I wont count on it.

At any rate, I should have the house ready by mid Sept, and the decorations up by the 28th, barring any major problems.

I usually start to get into the spirit when August rolls around, and it's not until September that it really hits me.

Mike, you've given me something to think about! I'd like to start at least 1 or 2 weeks before October 1st. You should have seen me last year. I started mid October. It was awful.
