Shocked! On Market Friday

BOO!!!

Why the Boo you ask? Well apparently it is the Halloween season and I did not get the memo!

Oh shame on you Menards for trying to steal even a moment of my summer away before it time!!!!!!!

This is more my speed for a Halloween decoration. I know everyone wants a morbid looking skeleton to adorn their place, but the Old Guy rather have a nice little pumpkin patch sign.

I am sure it is a sign of aging to feel the desire to complain about the holiday seasons being rushed by retailers. However, come on! I am over protective of my summer and proud of it! They have those Christmas in July sales, well before long they will start leaving the decorations up for Christmas from July, Why not, we are almost there now!

Or even a friendly looking scarecrow!!!!

Not too sure about the unidentified creepy skeletons lol.

I always say a big thank you to @dswigle that works so hard to make each and every Market Friday a success!

I was also shocked Menards was so empty!

But I am not taking any chances and am always masked up!

I came to get some last minute towing supplies, and was shocked by the good selection!

I was also shocked to learn (at the urinal...Yes Menards knows about a captive audience!) that you can buy a home kit. Plus its on sale and you save 12 grand on a 1600 sq ft one. Makes me want to get building!!!!

You cut your hair! It is the first thing I noticed.

Halloween already? I have to be honest. I haven't been to a store that might carry it, so if they have it out here, I don't know about it. But, it really doesn't matter, does it?

How dare they! I mean really? I am still in the throes of summer and the upcoming Labor Day Weekend blowout! How can I even think about Halloween? Hey! Thanks for being a part of #MarketFriday!

Nope! Omg you always say that. 😁 I have not cut my hair in ages! I really need to. Mine is getting about as long as yours!

I have not had a decent crack at summer yet. Le sigh. I wish for just a day or three to relax. Thanks for the tip! Gawd knows I need it! 😃


Yes!! Those sides are really short instead of sticking out like tufts on a mangy lion. Honest. Either that or you have it slicked down with Brylcreem. A little dab will do you.


Seriously? Today was a stellar trading day! I should be asking you for money!

I loved your post. I wish I could go to the supermarket like that. The bad things here are just beginning.
His photo of grumpy and cheerful at the end of the post made me smile. Success.

Well it is certainly a horror story out there and so it makes sense. I have a rule with my son ... no Halloween on September and no Xmas until November ... and then we have at it:)

Wow shops are always pushing the next season it’s sickening! Yes do hang on to summer... it took its sweet time arriving for you 😉
The house kits are cool..... just find a nice spot in the country and order your pack online. A new home

How I long to do some shopping too @old-guy-photos :D
Seasons come and go so fast and after this month maybe some radio stations would play christmas carols over the air again :|
