We need a little Christmas
This year, I don't mind too much that the stores have decorated for the holidays two weeks before Thanksgiving.
I love that KOST has kicked off its holiday music 24/7.
I'm ready to decorate the outside of the house this weekend (hoping Hubby will find time to bring all the Christmas stuff down from the garage eaves!) And I've printed out our Christmas gift list (counting family, friends, the mailman, teachers etc. the list has grown to three pages!) Our family celebrates three new babies this year, with one more due Dec. 8. (What recession?!!!)

This year, we need the spirit of Christmas around to remind us that even though the budget's leaner this year, and we have more worries, and the new year may loom more uncertain than before, there are still a lot of things to be thankful for (even if it's just little things like Christmas carols on the radio!)
As Auntie Mame and Co. sing:
Didn't know I had such a good singing voice now, didja?
Happy Thanksgiving and then some!
As Auntie Mame and Co. sing:
Slice up the fruitcake;
It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough.
For we need a little music,
Need a little laughter,
Need a little singing
Ringing through the rafter,
And we need a little snappy
"Happy ever after,"
Need a little Christmas now.

Love Christmas music in December!
Hi ! I do love your thoughts on the spirit of xmas being stronger this year b/c of economy. It's probably just my strong mom vibe, but I definitely feel it :) ps where was your column this week???
Hi Darlene! They're moving it to Wednesdays when they have a women's page instead of the school page. More fitting I think! Thanks for the message!
