Bah (humbug)

You may recall that a few weeks ago I had my "first Christmas thought." And I thought I was early about it. Well, on Monday (6 Sep!) I was in a Hobby Lobby and they had one whole side of the store split between Halloween and Christmas displays.

They're not even waiting until after H-day anymore!!! Sheesh.


And just now, I'm looking through a fundraising catalog and there's gobs of Christmas stuff... uuhhhg... it's depressing. I haven't even fathomed discussing with the kids what they want to be for Halloween yet, and already I'm being bombarded by yuletide yuck. It's just too much.

I'm starting to think that you people that leave your Christmas lights on your house year-long (you know who you are) are on to something. That you are pioneers. You have seen the future, and it is a year-long Christmas. I dread that future, but thanks I guess for the heads up.
