Week 8

 This last week (I'm a little late), I tried to have all of my media be Halloween-related. My husband and I are wimps, so we watched The Twilight Zone for our "spooky" show. We listened to Halloween/spooky music, and we watched some kids' Halloween shows with my little brothers, like "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" (a family classic).

This year, it's kind of hard to feel festive, especially when it's not safe to celebrate how we might normally. I found that using media intentionally this way helped me enjoy the holiday more and feel like I was making it special, which was important to me because I LOVE holidays. This is a use/gratification that I had never previously considered! We do the same, obviously on a much larger scale, with Christmas, and I can't wait to get into that too!
