Holidays Are Coming Quick

Geez...this year has flown by fast. I can remember being a kid and it seemed like forever for the year to go by.

So one of my most favorite holidays is right around the corner....Halloween!! I love this holiday and really don't know why. I think it is because I always loved to dress up as something completely outside of the box and be something I wasn't. I love to go to look at houses that have been nicely decorated with scary stuff. Plus there is not eating involved!!

Then comes Thanksgiving...ugg..food... I love being with my family but all the food..OMG..I always feel miserable after this day. I certainly am thankful that we have food and family but not for the way I feel afterwards.

Then comes Christmas..more food and the favorite holiday of kids..I think we have lost focus on what Christmas is really about. This year I have no idea what is going to happen, as my son gets older he gets harder to shop for. It is now time for me to start thinking about more older kids things for him. Then I have my 30 year old child who keeps dropping the hint about flat panel televisions.

Lastly for the year, New Years. Time to welcome a new year and hope the new one is better than the last!!
