Is it me, or is Christmas starting early this year? I know that Christmas commercials and tree trimming materials pop up in stores early anyway, but it seems to be hitting even earlier this year with gift commercials and such.
I just got the Halloween candy taken care of, and already my children are handing me Christmas wish lists, and talking of Santa and Rudolph. One of my neighbors a few houses up already have their Christmas lights on. What about Thanksgiving?
I love winter, Christmas, and all the ho-ho-ho that you can throw at me, but let us not forget to be thankful this month for making it through a year of many, many downs, a recession, small pockets, and even smaller wallets. And, then in December we can turn our thoughts to joy, good will towards men, and all the hope of the season for a prosperous new year!!!
