Usually I do my Christmas shopping in August, but this year the wedding of my middle son and his beautiful wife was the focal point of my agenda, and I lost track of time. So, all of a sudden Christmas is upon me, and I’m woefully unprepared. Add to that, a constant line of house guests from October onward, the fact that November to April is the busiest period as far as work’s concerned, and the end result is — Christmas is coming way too fricking soon.
I suggested to the family that we push the day forward by a week — total thumbs down reaction.
At least, now I’ve got the tree up, and my dancing Snoopy’s taken the grinch out of my mood!
Cheers,
Jianne
