Today I’m going to give a crash course in the apologetics of premature Christmas decorating.
After all, the Early Bird puts up the tree, right? Since Halloween wrapped and many went straight for the red and green, I have read some strong Facebook opinions. There are those who decked the halls on November 1, not thinking twice about what other people thought. Good on you, Christmas lovers. I’ve also seen many striving to maintain the sanctity of Thanksgiving. Stockings and garlands are for the day after the bird, and not a minute sooner. I can see this point, too.
I am typically a Grinch when it comes to most things, but last year I joined the early bandwagon. If you happen to stop by and peek in our windows, you’ll see I’m still on it. The bunch spent Monday afternoon decking the halls and jamming to Christmas pop from the ’80s, ’90s, and today. Does that make you angry?
