"I hate it when the stores go from Halloween to Christmas and don’t give us any time to be thankful."

Rebecca Gomez said...: Interesting perspective. Why wait until a certain time of year to be thankful, and why depend on the stores for that opportunity?? :-); November 19, 2010 at 9:10 AM
Ann Finkelstein said...: Rebecca: I'm pretty sure the person who said that was joking, but with statements taken out of context it can be hard to tell.; November 19, 2010 at 9:18 AM
Debbie Diesen said...: This Overhead made me smile! On the commercial end of things, Thanksgiving sure does get overlooked. One minute, stores are full of Halloween doodads; the next, everything Christmas! At hour house, the boys like holiday window clings, but do you think we could find any for Thanksgiving? No, we could not. Ah well.; November 19, 2010 at 9:24 AM
