Tis the season, in October?

pumpkin snowman 2Have I done something wrong? I don’t think I have, but some people might think I have. Ok, I’m just going to say it. I’ve already started watching Christmas shows on TV! I’ve even started playing Christmas songs on my ipod!  Ok, I know what you’re thinking. It’s too early. You should wait at least another month, maybe even longer. At least hear me out and please let me know what you think.

Yesterday I was sitting in the living room, waiting for Debbie to come home from work. I was channel surfing and noticed that the movie Fred Claus was on and I watched the whole movie. I liked it. I don’t feel really comfortable telling you this, but during the part when Fred Claus was driving Santa’s sleigh through Santa’s village,  I got a little teary eyed. I couldn’t help it! The sight of Santa’s brother Fred, driving Santa’s sleigh for Santa because Santa hurt his back, knowing all those kids were going to get their presents for Christmas this year, it just got to me.

Truth be known, I’ve already watched three Christmas shows, since September. I have a rule about watching Christmas shows. I think it’s cool to watch them if you’re watching them in a month that ends in “ber”. December ends in “ber”, therefore any month that ends in “ber” is a Christmas season month. You don’t have to jump right into watching Christmas shows.  Maybe in September, you can start with just one Christmas show. October, maybe two and so on. Work your way into it gradually. Even Hallmark has already started selling their Christmas decorations!  C’mon,  it’s not like I’m wearing my Darth Vader Christmas tie anywhere. That doesn’t start until the day after Halloween.
