We love looking at all the store holidays displays this time of year. 🍂🍂🍂
We had so much fun this past Sunday (September 8th) in Home Depot. And then earlier September 5th in Target & Dollar Tree.Β Β

Taking after her dad, Moonflower is a huge anime and manga fanatic. They do prefer different genres though, and Moonflower also prefers more of the newer anime, including horror anime. I only watch anime or manga when Moonflower wants me to watch her favorites; and I do my best to try and follow the basic storyline. Very basic.Β
She already knows that I get very confused with the numerous characters with numerous powers and extensive backstories. The writing is definitely brilliantly creative but I can only keep up with so much at a time. I also do my best to remember a name or 2, and she loves laughing at me trying to remember or pronounce any names.
My motto is, if it's important to Moonflower then it's important enough for me to try and learn some of the characters and the basic storylines even though it strains my brain. I just literally can't keep up!
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle
Today September 17, Moonflower and I made it on to see Demon Slayer.
As posted here: Hot Dogs and Homeruns, getting out of the house in time is a huge challenge for me. During my rushing, I was trying to say bye bye to Luna so that she can know that I won't be in the house when she comes off the patio, and I was trying to finish my sandwich. When Moonflower and I were walking out to the car I went to unlock the door for her, then that's when I realized I didn't have my keys. So I had to ring the doorbell for Joe to give me my keys. It was too late when I realized I forgot my jacket.
When I saw that Moonflower had on shorts, I was rushing so much that I didn't think to say, "Well I know it's not usually that cold when we go to the movies but you just never know when they will have the air blasting. Put some jeans on just in case."
Well this was "the case." Lol. We were freezing!Β

From Spirit Halloween to Headache Halloween
I rarely get headaches, thankfully!Β
----------------
Our tradition of visiting stores to look at holiday decor has definitely expanded this year lol. Moonflower said she wants to revisit stores to see if they've put out more decor. And then I remembered that we can definitely visit Spirit Halloween. I think the last time I was in Spirit Halloween, she was about 2 or 3 and I was there because one of my nieces was having the hardest time finding the perfect trick or treat costume. You can definitely find any and everything in there.
Moonflower fell asleep so I was walking around with her on asleep on my shoulders 🥰😍Awe those days when they're so little! It's not easy by any means, but it goes by so fast that you only remember the awesomeness.Β

I don't think they were fully finished setting up, because it was a lot of empty space that I think was for more of the statue type things. But what they had was very scary, just like with Home Depot. Those life-sized Halloween displays are just too scary for me to take pictures of. Because at first I be like, "easy blog content." Then I think about it and I'm like nope, too scary.
I felt okay in Spirit Halloween but when we walked back to the car, it was still just so hot! 86 degrees with a heat index of 92!! This is why I stay inside through the hottest summer days; however, it's mid-September and since the mornings and nights have been cool, I thought that I would be able to tolerate the heat better.
I was thirsty, even though I had some water with me, it wasn't helping. Traffic was horrible, and this was an area that I wasn't familiar with. So I had a hard time getting in the correct lanes and everything in order to get to the WalMart that was near Spirit Halloween. Eventually we got there, and when I started looking at the pumpkins Moonflower noticed that I didn't sound too good.Β
It wasn't just a headache but it's also like I slept badly and my neck and shoulders were hurting as well. But why would it wait to hurt in the middle of the day and not hurt as soon as I woke up? Anyway, we weren't in there long because Joe needed the car. We have plenty of time to look at more decorations and displays, and it'll be done when the sun goes down!
