When I was out this weekend shopping for my daughter’s November 1st birthday I could not believe the amount of Christmas stuff on display. I know that every year I am surprised at the early appearance of the holiday goodies on the shelves but this year it seems like so much. I have never been so late putting the finishing touches on my Halloween and daughter’s birthday shopping before so I was already feeling some pressure and that Christmas stuff made me tense. But you know what? It’s really not that early!
Forget about counting down the days. Think about this… In less than two months it will be all over! In less than two months you will have shopped, spent enormous amounts of money, exchanged & opened gifts, pulled out the decorations, sang the songs, consumed more yummy food & drink than would normally fit into your belly if you weren’t in the holiday spirit, baked the cookies, and put up, enjoyed, and taken down the Christmas tree. TWO MONTHS!
When you think of things in those terms two months doesn’t seem like enough time to plan, act, and enjoy, does it? It’s already time to send out the Christmas invitations and Holiday greetings, schedule the parties & cookie bakes, and dig out the decorations. Otherwise you will be too busy to enjoy all the special treats & opportunities that present themselves between now and the new year.
My wallet always takes a beating when Christmas comes around. Last week, I witnesed what may have been the first Christmas commercial of the season. I have a feeling Christmas will sneak up on me, just like Halloween did.
You are right its the high time now…
Okay, I really have to start now. I can’t believe that Halloween just ended in a blink of an eye and now, it’s not too early to prepare for Christmas. I don’t want to rush Christmas shopping again.
