A Halloween Day in my Life! 🎃

BOO!!!…..Did I scare you? Oh well, at least I got your attention 🤷🏽‍♀️🤣. Happy Halloween!! 🦇 Or at least it was yesterday anyway, I think it still counts, this is like the boxing day to Halloween 😂. So I was wondering what would be a good post idea and I thought it would be fun to document how my Halloween day went! It wasn’t very spooky but you can’t win em all 🙄🤣. Let me jump right into what happened!

So! I spent the majority day out with my sister shopping in Carrickmines and Arklow. Golden brown leaves were coating the roads and falling down from the trees in the breeze 🍂. We started out in Ikea and I got a canvas lampshade ball thing because at the moment I have a black lampshade so I wanted one that would show more light in my room. It was only €4! I’m getting it put up in my room today (the day that this post is uploaded) and I’m hoping it doesn’t bump into my head as the ceiling isn’t that high 😂.

We looked around tkmaxx and I got a few Christmas gifts. Then I got an acai bowl in The Vanilla Pod, I had planned to go there for the first time and was really looking forward to it but sadly it didn’t taste nice at all 🫤. It was kinda like how I’d imagine playdough to be. Can I say it was gruesome as that sounds like the perfect Halloween word? 🤣

We then both got decaff pumpkin spiced lattes in Statbucks after looking around another tkmaxx, I wanted to try their salted maple and caramel latte but they’d sold out. I enjoyed my pumpkin spice latte anyway, it felt very autumnal and it was super sweet!! Annoyingly, it gave me a bad migraine but luckily painkillers hit the spot and drinking loads of water too.

We got home at around 5:30-6pm, had dinner and then carved pumpkins whilst watching the Sing Halloween short on Netflix and some horror gamers on YouTube. The sitting room smelt so strongly of pumpkin 🤣🎃 and I lost two Hello Kitty false nails that only got put on the day before 🫠 + I ended up glueing them back on the wrong fingers too 🙄.

I decided to keep my pumpkin super simple and it was fun to do! I kinda messed up the carpet even tho I put a towel down so I’ve got to clean it today 😤. Anyway, my sisters pumpkin was way better than mine as I’m sure you’ll agree!

We then watched our usuals, Married at First Sight and Big Brother UK! It’s spooky week on Big Brother so it was perfect! Our kittens jumped in through the sitting room window like they normally do in the evenings and I snuggled up with them. We could hear popping sounds like fireworks going off and it really upset them and the dogs but luckily it didn’t go on for too long.

I then got in bed to type out this post and read my book (Forging Silver Into Stars by Brigid Kemmerer – it’s sooo good!! I’m really into it).

And that was my day!! 🎃 (Let me just pop a pumpkin there and pretend it was an overly autumnal day 🤣). How did you spend Halloween? I’d love to know what you got up to! 🦇 I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I enjoyed putting it together! 😉

I’ll be off now but I’ll see you again next Friday! (The day before my birthday 🎂😆). Take care! Buh-bye 💗
