The Holiday Season is Upon Us
3 Qudrat 164 B.E. - Tuesday, November 6, 2007 about 11:38 AM PST

The holiday season is upon us and my Grandmother would be appalled. I went to WalGreen's yesterday to pick up a perscription and they had the Christmas Tree up and decorated. Grandma didn't decorate the Tree until Black Friday.

On Thursday we'd have Thanksgiving Dinner and then on Friday morning Grandpa would buy a live Tree. Us kids (OK I know that isn't proper gramar) would go with him and help pick out the tree. We'd bring the tree home and decorate it. Even after she bought an artificial tree, Grandma didn't put it up and decorate it until Black Friday.

Starting on the Saturday after Thanksgiving Grandma would do her Christmas shopping. The Christmas cards always went out the week before Thanksgiving, but she didn't start buying presents until after Thanksgiving. The only thing my Grandparents bought on Black Friday was a Christmas Tree and groceries. We had to stock up after Thanksgiving.
