				<description>&#060;p&#062;I work in retail so I know that I will be sick of Christmas by the time it rolls around. I'm pretending that the Christmas stock did not start coming in this week!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;LOL Katja about helpless males!  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;elly, I don't care AT ALL for crowds and noise.  For me, Christmas is all about time with family, not about chaos!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I hate Christmas! I am like the ultimate Grinch. It is just not a happy holiday in my family. Halloween is my favorite holiday. Where I am currently living we have a small apple orchard and are growing pumpkins--- I am still looking forward to caramel apples, pumpkin seeds, and jack-o-lanterns to go with the candy. I love to dress up as well. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I usually try to do all my Christmas shopping online. I get overstimulated in crowds, so I don't even like to go to the stores in December for groceries, let alone gifts.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Louise and lady, I think we should just ignore this seasonal faux pas and become joyful when we are good and ready!  Thanks for the posts.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Back in JULY i stopped for a quick lunch at a Cracker Barrel. They have this little country store type set up when you first walk in.....&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Christmas stuff out and on display complete with tree in corner. i was shocked.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I ignore this. the winter Fall and Winter holiday season is my favorite time of the year. i like to be excited when the season genuinely comes around.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;biscuitsmom, I try NOT to be burned out about it.  But it's hard to sustain the joy!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;LOL chewy!  Most hubbies plead ignorance when it comes to anything holiday!  You are right about the economy driving the displays.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Just do a little at a time and you'll be fine.  I tend to not overdo Christmas - enjoying time with friends and family is what it's all about for me.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;It's too early for me, but I think that in this economy stores are going to put things out as early as possible in hopes to sell it all.&#060;br /&#062;
The scary part for me is that I am solely responsible for everything to do with the holidays. Hubby is beyond clueless, and I am just not up to it this year.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;It is definitely too early for the Season of Joy.  I usually shop all year for Christmas, buying great stuff as I find it. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Does anyone else, besides Julie (you clever girl) use this same Christmas shopping strategy, seeking and buying with a permanent list in your heads?
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I've bought my first presents for the girls, I NEED to be organised but I do find it hard to see the Christmas cards before the Halloween items have been displayed!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I was at JCP on Saturday and a display rack of plush reindeer suddenly appeared in the kid's clothing area, being carefully arranged by an associate who was whistling &#034;Jingle Bells.&#034; I thought the 'rule' was nothing Christmas-related before Halloween!  Any thoughts about rushing the joy?  Is this just too early or what?
