Guess I have joined the masses. I am appalled by the early Christmas stuff and was holding out until after Thanksgiving but I finally gave up and shared, on FB, my friend's song, "I wish Every Day Were Christmas". It has been used in a "cute" movie so I am sure "cute" people will be interested. Support your local musicians!

So, I am thinking of finding the one string of lights and the few decorations and perking the place up a bit in a Christmas sort of way.

Interesting, though, is it not, that there seem to be important events/celebrations/ holy days for a number of religions/ethnic groups at this time of year. Someone once suggested that the pagans already celebrated the solstice so the early "Christians" decided to put their special day at a time that would encourage those pagans to become a part of it.

And Easter at the time of the celebration of Spring.... As in let's go with the flow and hope the flow will be us.
