2. I went to Lowes yesterday to get some paint samples |
|
To the right of the entrance where they have their seasonal merchandise, there was a small section for Halloween (one endcap), the rest of the section was all ready for Christmas.

5. Costco has been selling Christmas for about a month now |
|
Since I'm in the market for new outdoor lighting, I am looking at these, especially since Costco tends to sell out early.

only because if I don't get one now, there won't be any good ones left! :hide: But generally, yes, I agree, the X-mas stuff is out too soon.

7. I used to love doing Advent calendars |
|
My aunt made two, one for her daughter and one for me.
During the year, we would buy little trinkets and toys for our calendars, things like funny erasers, or a little pen set. Then, in the fall we would wrap them and attach them to the calendars. Once we filled out the calendar, we exchanged them through the mail.
I got to open my cousin's gifts every day in December and she got to open mine to her. :-) Fond memories.
I still pick up a little item sometimes and think, this would go good on the advent calendar. :D

I really enjoyed a calendar with chocolates on each day, that came from the Fair Trade store.

8. i ended up getting a bunch of christmas songs on my pandora station today |
|
You know how you pick the artists, composers, songs, etc you want and Pandora finds similar music. For some reason, they took my classical choices to mean that I wanted christmas music. made it fun having to explain to co-workers why they heard christmas music, lol.
