I went shopping for a few Christmas gifts today for the first time to get some stuff early, and then it hit me like, “Wow… it felt like we just started 2017 and now it’s Halloween tomorrow and then very soon after Thanksgiving and Christmas…” I can’t believe the holiday season is already on my mind. At the store, I even saw Christmas decorations up for sale in the very front. It feels like it gets earlier every year. Anyone else feel the same?

I’m working on an Advent Day of Reflection for my parish so I’ve been thinking about Advent for a while now. 🙂 It’s a little weird to be humming “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” in October, but there you are. The woman I’m doing this with is in the music ministry and says that for her to be humming out-of-season songs is normal since she’s usually looking at things that will be coming a few months in the future.
 
Exactly. My choir has been rehearsing Advent and Christmas Octavos for a month now, and I ordered the new pieces in July
 
Yes.I noticed that all of the street lights around town have Christmas Wreaths on them already!😳
 
Oh dear,yes…😬 It’s amazing that a row of Christmasy treats in the supermarket just now got my heart beating faster-with aprehesion of all things…!
Each year I think I’ll do this this n this,and don’t really get to (decorations,shopping,cooking etc)
At least I’ve identified it early ,can deal with some of it early then concentrate on the actual Christmas 👍
 
Our supermarket is, as we speak, putting up the Christmas displays.
Check the time stamp of this post.
It is All Hallows’ Even.

Mah head asplode
 
If that’s the case,then soon it will no longer be considered tacky for keeping the Christmas lights up on the house year round!😳😜🎄
 
I’m looking forward to my Advent Retreat the first weekend in December.
