So...just about the only time I actually like Monday is when it happens in a short week like this one. About two-thirds of my students have already headed home for the holidays, so lots of empty classrooms. And I confess that my own thoughts are already on turkey. Haven't decided if I'll make it out on Black Friday. To be honest I've finished up my Christmas shopping, but I do like seeing the crowds and having strangers press up against me. Hope your holiday is wonderful. It's a great time to curl up with a book -- hint, hint! I'll make you a deal: if you promise to do a little reading, I'll promise to do a little writing.

I know we say it every year...stop with the Christmas atmosphere before Thanksgiving. But let me say it again for this year...Stop with the Christmas atmosphere!
Look, no one likes Christmas better than me: wreaths and holly...curling up by the fire to watch two hundred hours of Halmark Channel holiday movies dressed in my sexiest elf costume. And I want it here faster than most people do. But I suppose the fact that Thanksgiving falls so early this year means we have to break out the eggnog and mistletoe a little earlier too. I read somewhere today that Wal-Mart already has Black Friday deals up. At my house there's a simple rule: no holiday music until after Thanksgiving dinner. No Frank Sinatra singing "Let it Snow," no Band Aid singing "Do They Know it's Christmas," no Burl Ives belting out "It's a Holly Jolly Christmas." Is it too much to ask for all the malls and discount store to do the same? I'll be getting presents together soon though. No peaking! A bit of a secret I'm passing along to all of you...
I've put up one of my books, Sister Shelly Needs a Baby, for free at Amazon through the weekend. If you'd like to see what some of my writing is like, this is a perfect time! And don't forget about my new novella, up now at Amazon -- The Bobby Soxer and the Billionaire. Just a little thank you to all of your for your support. |
