We have had Christmas stuff since late September.. Funny to see Halloween on one side of the asile and Christmas on the other. That was how it was for some of October.

Pretty much the same here. All the halloween stuff isn't even off the shelves and the Christmas stuff is coming out. All about money I guess.

It is and they are saying that they have 6 days less shopping from Thanksgiving to Christmas by the way Thanksgiving fell this year.

They may have lost days between those two points but overall they probably still have the same number of days. The year is still the same amount of days. Almost every store is open 7 days a week now. I can remember the days when Sunday about the only thing open was the corner store and gas station. If you had anything to do you had to make sure you had what you needed before Sunday.

Ya the Thursday thing is kind of weird. Most places would close at 5 or 6 but would be open till 9 on Fridays.

That's about all we have had so far. A couple dustings. There has been a fair bit in the mountains. You still fairly warm there. Right now we are just below freezing.

No, not too bad but wind up to 20mph which will be nasty out there working.

I am going to call it a night Friend. I hope that you have a great rest of your evening. Catch up with you tomorrow..

Wind makes it about 3 times as bad. Nothing worse than freezing or near freezing with a wind. Seems to cut though everything.
