I went into town early today to get groceries. I just can't seem to get it done during the week these days and since I was up before everyone else, took advantage of the morning and headed out.
There is nothing that seems to usher in the holidays more than the ringing of the Salvation Army bell. Out side Wal-Mart, there is usually a bell ringer each Christmas season and sure enough, this morning was no exception. It brought a warm glow inside and a smile to my face.
Once I got home and got the groceries put away, Mike and I sat and had coffee while deciding what our plan was for the day. Yes, it still includes Christmas decorations. But after we all had our assigned duties, it dawned on me that the day after Thanksgiving is usually when I start playing Christmas music in the house and I was one day late!!! I ran and got my Christmas cd's and popped in The Carpenters Christmas. Karen is singing to me as I write. Oh, I LOVE this time of year!

I do love it as well. When I went back to MN last weekend, it snowed and then I heard Christmas music somewhere. It totally got me into the holiday spirit.
