Today, my mother was digging up our Halloween decorations, and found the Christmas decorations as well. She's shoddily decorated the house already in half-Halloween and half-Christmas style to save time. I guess we'll be celebrating Christmasween for the rest of the year. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I'm already dreading Christmas. Our mom insists on fairytale-like decorations that everyone else pays for and helps her make. We're exhausted. She's the only one who doesn't have a job, but if we don't help she spends the day crying in her room. FML
Today, on the third of February, my mom finally relented and let us take the Christmas decorations down. FML
Today, I've had my tenth "Christmas" dinner since Christmas last took place. My mum has gone nuts and keeps playing Christmas music, making these dinners, and refusing to let me take down the Christmas decorations. My dad is too whipped to save us from this hell. FML
Today, in the second week of August, hell has come to earth; my mom has been playing Christmas music all afternoon and is already searching online for decorations. I hope she buys a length of rope to go with them, because I've already given up on life. FML
Today, my mom got drunk and decided to unwrap all my Christmas gifts and throw them at the wall. Ho, ho, ho. FML
Today, my husband announced that he was fed up with us being known as the neighborhood slobs, and prepared to take down all the Christmas decorations still up from last year. He then decided it was too much effort, and that he'd leave them up to give us a three month head-start. FML
Today, I already hate the holidays. My mom has been trying to be helpful, but has severe undiagnosed memory problems that our family ignores. They've also ignored all the house repairs, but have no problem consoling her while she cries how mean I am for missing her party, because I used my vacation time to fix the house. FML
Today, my mother has issued a 'Christmas Ultimatum'. The rest of us have exactly 2 days to "get some Christmas around here" or we will feel her wrath. FML
Today, my mom and I were talking about a wedding decoration that we are going to use at my wedding. I insisted that I gave the decorations to her and I didn’t bother looking in my house. She came over for the night and cleaned while I was at work. She found the decorations that I'd insisted that I'd given to her. FML
Today, my manager made everyone put up Christmas decorations around the store. As well as this, we're going to have Christmas music playing on repeat all the way through to January. It's not even September yet. FML

You can dress up as Santa for Halloween. That'll save you money on costumes too.

That's a little weird. My house is decorated with the traditional JUST Halloween decorations.

#1 I agree! Nothing wrong with early Christmas decor. It's only 79 days away!

Is no one else thinking of the nightmare before Christmas?

I suggest an abominable snowman decoration to incorporate both Halloween and Christmas spirit. (:

Freddy Claus, the masked man from the north pole. Gives out presents to the nice, and rips the naughty to shreds with a chainsaw.

It appears many people don't like candy and presents.

Christmas and Halloween? Your mother reminds me of the companies that put up Thanksgiving and Christmas decorations the day after Halloween.

Halloween is still pretty far off and most stores already have their christmas stuff displayed.

Over here in Virginia they don't, i suppose it varies, just Halloween stuff still.

While visiting Vancouver, BC, I noticed Halloween & Christmas tv ads AND in-store merchandise out as early as September 10th this year. I KNOW that's earlier than normal!

Christmasween is now forever how I will refer to how store set up their decorations. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, even though I can't imagine a skull with a Santa hat and devil horns bringing a lot of cheer to you on either holiday. FYL
