Holiday Timing
It feels so wrong to be getting out the Christmas card list when Thanksgiving hasn’t even rolled around yet, but already the temporary pumpkin patches have turned into temporary Christmas tree lots, all decorated in red and green and of all things advertising custom flocking. (It’s too flocking soon!)
Anyway, I already hear the carols and the sleigh bells, which seem odd enough in a snowless region, and I find myself cutting out snowflakes from spare printer paper. It doesn’t help that I work in graphic design; I designed for the winter holidays back in early fall, and just recently I completed a book cover illustration with a New Year’s theme.
I can see it now; while everyone celebrates Christmas, I’ll be preparing for Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, and Easter. I guess that explains why I think today is Friday.

IN Canada we celebrate Thanksgiving in October so there are no holiday impediments to Christmas once Halloween is over . . .
Wishful holiday cheer? I live in a snowless region again too this year, and I’m finding it very hard to get into the spirit of Thanksgiving when it’s 80˚ outside. I was actually all excited yesterday because it was cloudy and cold enough to wear pants.
Well, we had some snow last night and this morning. So, hopefully it might be a snowy Thanksgivings.
Oh the weather outside is frightful…Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow…

Have a great Thankgiving tomorrow! Happy Friday as well 😉
Some of us will be working tomorrow… =-(
Ouch…I hope you are going to get overtime.
Happy Thanksgiving April, Broch and to everyone else.

Happy turkey day, April. Do yourself a favor and stay home tomorrow. Or, if you do have to go out, bring a can of mace for protection against the elephant herds.
