Well, it has been a busy week up here in Montreal but am heading home on Friday – Halloween. I have never gotten into Halloween, not sure why. Yes, I know dressing up etc can be fun but I like me and I feel no need to dress up and be someone else. In fact, I just want to be a better version of me. A better husband, a better parent, a better friend, a better speaker, a better golfer, etc. You get the idea.

Maybe I was traumatized by a Halloween costume in my youth and I don’t want to repeat that. Or maybe, rather than spending time and energy on being someone else, even for a day, I would rather be me and work at being a better me.

I am not being critical of those who like this holiday. I simply am not a big fan and thought I would share my thoughts with you.

I will, however, eat the heck out of some chocolate this weekend. I don’t want to be a Scrooge Pumpkin!
