Early Christmas

      It's that time of year again,  the lights are being hung, presents are being placed under the tree, and fake reindeer litter front lawns, yes everyone it is almost Thanksgiving. What, Christmas decorations aren't supposed to go up this early, well tell that to all of the department stores out there. You know what really grinds my gears, when stores skip over Thanksgiving and immediately prepare for Christmas. Every year, around the beginning of November, stores start putting up Christmas decorations. This action is probably one of the most insulting things to do, they are basically saying there is no time to give thanks and realize blessings, there is only time to buy. Maybe I'm looking to deep into this, but putting up Christmas decorations this early in stores looks kind of needy and pathetic. It's like they think whoever puts the decorations up first, sells the most over priced merchandise, but the truth is, whoever puts up the decorations first grinds my gears more. So Macy's, Dillard's, Nordstrom's, and all you other department stores, chill out, and decorate your stores the day before Christmas like all of the other procrastinators.
