Christmas Already?

So I broke down this weekend and bought my Christmas cards for this year. I know that everyone is rushing Christmas more and more as the years go by, but last year I waited and I got a crummy selection so this year I bought them early. The hubby and I like to get the sparkly ones so everyone will open the card and have a giant mess on their tables. It makes us smile.

Besides the cards I also went to Target and bought two light decorations for the inside of my kitchen windows and garland. Why the lights, because living in our townhouse I have realized we have no outside plugs which means I do not get to put those awesome blow up decorations on my yard, or even lights on my bushes. It's very upsetting because I love to decorate. I also needed more garland because my lovely cat destroyed my last 10' of it during the past Christmas season.

Oh and I can't forget to mention that half of my Christmas shopping is done already! I do most of it online and when I find free shipping or major discounts I jump on the chance to get it taken care of.

So there you have it. It's not even Thanksgiving yet and I have already jumped on the Christmas band wagon. I don't like rushing holidays, I honestly love to enjoy them and the sights and sounds that go with them, but I needed to get some things out of the way before they became sold out.

Oh and let me not forget Christmas music. I hate it! So that can stay away all the way up to Christmas morning. There is only one song I like and that is the Ringing of the Bells played at my church on Christmas Eve. Besides that song, they can all be turned down or the channel changed on the radio when they come on.
