No! Stop It!
People!
No Christmas related items are to be installed, sung, played, decorated, eaten, enjoyed, or otherwise referred and alluded to prior to the culmination of Halloween. I just saw a commercial for Hershey’s Kisses and it had Christmas music in the background.
Too early! Got it?
Look, I like Christmas just as much as anyone. The holiday season is probably one of the best times of the year, at least in my humble opinion. I really enjoy the smells and flavors, the sensations (who doesn’t like to warm up inside after being outside in the cold while putting up Christmas lights?), and the sentiment. It’s a fun time of the year, regardless of it’s drawbacks.
But really, let’s hold off on the decorating and indulging until at least after Halloween. Personally, I would rather wait until after Thanksgiving, but my efforts to that end have been less than fruitless for a while now.
Please, please, wait. I don’t want to be sick of it all and then realize that there are still 2 weeks to go…
I only bought the ornaments because they were on sale…and they are tucked away in the closet for now. The Christmas music is organized and ready though…just a few more weeks and this house will be rockin’ around the Christmas tree!
I agree.. Although the year did go by pretty fast. Might come and go before you know it.
