C in J...are you old enough to remember this? Or is Black Friday the only retail money making term you know for the holidays? To my memory C in J was what I grew up on as the retailers hoped the mid-summer sales would get them to fall, before Black Friday sales hopefully keep them in business through the winter.
Well here's my take of why I like C in J..
It's my official start of Pandora serendaing me with Christmas Music...how can you resist Jim Reeves singing "An Old Chritmas Card", Alan Jackson singing "Let it be Christmas Everywhere", Matthew West singing "Heart of Christmas" and Josh Groban singing "Believe"...
It's the hum of my sewing machine stitching on new Christmas fabrics...
It the scrapbooking internet sites flooded with holiday printed papers just beckoning me to push the buy button...
It's the can't resist that for .... and the hiding places in our home being filled with purchases for those loveable grandchildren...
It's the magazine racks filling up with holiday magazines to purchase with cooking, crafts and card making ideas for my viewing as I nod off to sleep...
It's the premier of Hallmark ornaments to add to my collection...
It's the hope that this 105 degree temp outside my door right now will soon turn to cool, crisp, rain filled air to quench the thirsting ground...
Have you guessed yet that I like Christmas. Just wait till it really gets close, I'm double excited by that time!
Yep. Sounds like my mother!!
