The month of October is a spend free month for the Kovacs family. We are obviously buying food and other essentials, but the extra that we don't need was cut off. This was my idea, but oh how I hate it. I can't take Andy out shopping in the mornings because I have no self control, so we spend a lot of time at the park or hanging out at home watching tv. And now with the holidays coming, I am desperate to buy decorations. We can't be the only house on our street not celebrating Christmas loudly after all! So I need lights that I know can be used outside, fake trees in pots on either side of my front door, cute hanging decorations for the front porch, and maybe some candy canes to line our front walk way. I want to be full of the spirit of Christmas! After seeing how much everyone decorates for Halloween, a few lights on the front bushes just isn't going to cut it. So November 1 can't come fast enough. I want to book it to Garden Ridge and Target to buy buy buy. As for the presents for everyone, that I can deal with later. Decorating the front of the house is SO much more important.
Also, I am expecting only two invites to holiday parties this December, and both are on the same evening. go figure.
I personally cannot wait to decorate my house for Christmas. I don't really get into the Halloween decorations but come November, I'm all about it!
