Glad to know that someone else feels the same edge I do about the holidays.<BR/><BR/>It does seem to get earlier and earlier every year, doesn't it? That, paired with the commercialism, makes it harder and harder to stay in the proper frame of mind!<BR/><BR/>you have a nice day...HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-33086380445399880082008-12-09T08:46:00.000-06:002008-12-09T08:46:00.000-06:00I'm with you Jim.

I just do. <BR/>Maybe cause I hate shopping and now I feel like I'm forced to, you know? <BR/>Oh well, nice to see someone else with the same attitude. lol <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the coffee :) <BR/>blondieblondiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10569854928013832857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-7254095290861923702008-12-09T08:06:00.000-06:002008-12-09T08:06:00.000-06:00Hey Jim,It seems that way each year for me too. Es...Hey Jim,<BR/><BR/>It seems that way each year for me too. Especially as the kids get older it becomes more and more of a chore. But once its all up it does look so nice and festive. We finished all of it last week or two, at least now the kids are old enough to do most of it. <BR/><BR/>It certainly doesn't help that the holidays have become so commercialized. Christmas trees and decorations are in the stores right after Halloween in this part of the world. We're sick of seeing it all by the time it actually gets here.<BR/><BR/>You're making that desert sound better and better each day. :)<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!<BR/>lydiaLydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267902449369439536noreply@blogger.com
