It was at the beginning of September when I saw my first Christmas aisle in a retail store. I don’t think the candy for Halloween was offloaded from the trucks yet. But there, in the middle of the store in front of God and everybody, was a full aisle of Christmas decorations waiting to be bought.
For goodness sakes people! For all that is good and right in the world, can we at least have the opportunities to steal our fill of our kid’s Halloween candy first and then be thankful that we aren’t the Pilgrims before we break out the stockings and the garland? It’s not even the middle of November and I saw a gigantic, fully-lit Christmas tree in the window of a house.
That is so wrong on so many levels.
One of the radio stations here is already playing around the clock Christmas music. You can’t imagine how many different renditions of We Wish You a Merry Christmas need to be left unsung. At least before Thanksgiving…
I did hear a Christmas song by Michael Bublé the other day, though. Now that voice could get me into the spirit of things…

who in the heck is Michael Buble? Never heard of him before –
The day right after Halloween is when all the Christmas deco started coming out…They like to get you in the buying mood early, so you have plenty of time to think about it..You know…the biggest Christmas shopping day of the year is just right around the corner – yep…the day after Thanksgiving.
Merry Christmas girl!
Oh, girl! Get thee to a google search and listen online. (You may be swooning in moments so make sure you are sitting down!)
Ack! Did you just wish me Merry Christmas? Did you not just read my blog! Have you no shame or calendar? You are so lucky you are in California…
you see, I knew that would ruffle your tiny little feathers so that’s why I said it…so Merry Christmas already!
you swoon? I don’t do any swooning, and for your information, I am sitting down…a thing we do best as assistant 🙂
Happy Easter!
