It's not too early for Christmas
This evening, I spent a little time wrapping Christmas gifts for needy children. There are set days in the week when a group of individuals purchase toys in the morning and a time at night when wrapping is done. Since I’m not a morning person or much of a shopper, I chose to do wrapping.
When I saw the PSA in the newspaper, I imagined the room being filled with old ladies taking their time with gift wrapping. Instead, there were a lot of college students (I forgot that two colleges surrounding the meeting place) and mother-daughter teams. In all, over 250 families have gifts for their kids, and it’s only Monday.
It snowed last night. I have never lived anywhere that snowed so early. There was probably an inch of it and it all melted away. And the town square has its Christmas tree lit up and shining. It feels so early, but it’s not.
Oh, and the comments work again.
