went to Michaels after lunch today to find something for my artist-sister in the old country. taking the down escalator to pay for my purchases, i passed by these Christmas decors, right beside the Hallowe'en decors. they're 30% off while the Hallowe'en ones were 50% off. and "jingle bell rock" was playing through the pipe-in music.
at the cashier, there was a woman paying for Christmas baubles, telling the cash clerk she has to start her Christmas decorations early this year. seriously?!?!?!
Crazy! I understand, to an extent, crafty places like Michael's having Christmas stuff out early because a lot of people who do handmade Christmas stuff have to start reeeeeally early to get it all done in time-- especially if it needs to be mailed, and/or they need to make stock for Christmas markets or whatever. But Christmas trees and Christmas music in August does seem crazy to me!
Oh goody! Did you buy some decorations for our Saturday Christmas? Lol! I like your composition that shows the Christmas mixed in with the fall decorations.
