Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
Sure, the calender may say it's the thirteenth of September, but we all know what time it really is: Christmas shopping time.
How do we know this? Why, we know because of the increase in catalogs received in the mail, that's how.
Just today, I got catalogs from Colorful Images, Delia's (why?), Sur La Table, FAO Shwarz and Crate and Barrel.
And it's been like this since last week.
I got fed up with the early marketing push for holidays years ago. I don't want to think about Easter in January, or Valentine's the day after New Year's. And I most certainly don't want to worry about my Christmas shopping in September!
I mean...I have to focus on my all-time fav first: Halloween. Christmas will just have to wait it's turn...
