It seems to me that the Christmas season arrives earlier and earlier each year. And I know such a statement can be rather cliché in today's world. After all, most stores start blaring the carols and decking the shelves sometime before Halloween. But an article that I read over the Thanksgiving vacation did capture my attention about all this premature holiday celebration.
The article discussed various types of Christmas trees and the pros and cons of each - useful information during the holiday season for sure. But what really struck me was the author's introduction to the article. “For those procrastinators who have yet to get a Christmas tree...” Now mind you, I've rarely ever been called a procrastinator. But to be called a holiday procrastinator in mid-November? At a time when I'm still thawing the Thanksgiving turkey?
Well suffice it to say, I didn't finish reading the article. Instead, I went outdoors, enjoyed the beautiful autumn day, and left my holiday decorating for next month.
