HARK, THE HERALD ANGELS SING!
So the other day I was talking to my good friend Laura on the phone (mid October, I'd say) and she divulged to me that she had already whipped out the Christmas music. Having, earlier, made a promise to myself that I wouldn't start listening to those blessed holiday tunes until after Thanksgiving, I told her that I was going to hold out a little longer. I think I lasted 24 more hours. Can you blame me? I mean, I was making pumpkin-chocolate-chip muffins, for heaven's sake! How could I not? Anyhow, I'm glad I did. I really do feel like Halloween and Thanksgiving are, yes, wonderful holidays in themselves, but at the same time a prelude (no pun intended) to Christmas.
And oh, how I love it.
Plus, I figure it's a lot better to love something TOO much as opposed loving it just enough.

ok, after I talked to you I put my Christmas music on hold, I figured I needed to wait until after Halloween. Well dang it! Its now November and I can listen all I want too! I started early in the AM the day after Halloween, even listening as we speak. This year my first Cd to buy( yes I bought it as opposed to stealing it off the internet0 is Chris Botti. Love it! My next one will be Faith Hill.... AHhh I love Christmas! Speaking of which wanna go Chirstmas shopping????

ReplyDeleteOh, I love you Jazzy. Christmas is the only thing that keeps me positive about the cold weather, and I LOVE Christmas music too! Bring it on!
ReplyDeleteNot yet, for me. Kids are still eating Halloween candy. I put on the music when I start baking.
