I am envious of those who can read more than one book at a time successfully; it's something I just can't seem to manage. The most I can do is have one book I'm reading, and one that I'm listening to on my ipod.TheBookGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04299629066975342607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-37888245842872256672011-11-16T19:26:44.347-05:002011-11-16T19:26:44.347-05:00I love this time of year, but yes, it is coming to...I love this time of year, but yes, it is coming too fast!

They started butting up Christmas trees and selling ornaments within a week or two of Labor Day! The decorations around the rest of the store probably went up about two weeks ago and to be honest, I have to keep reminding myself that Christmas is not *that* close. I am constantly bombarded with Christmas so I start to think it's just days away!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-57107227681790435952011-11-13T17:08:21.411-05:002011-11-13T17:08:21.411-05:00I hate when retailers push the season too.

My husband was looking for shoes and I was buying a baby gift, but I think most of the people there were Christmas shopping. We have really pared down our holiday spending, so it seems ridiculous to me.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.com
