Christmas Is Almost Upon Us

I cannot believe that it is November already. This year has truly flown by, and Christmas is just around the corner. In addition, it seems that the advertisers have started their Christmas campaign early this year. I remember looking at Christmas Cards on sale, and thinking to myself - Hallowe'en is still a month away. As well, I subscribe to my beloved "Globe and Mail" and for at least one full week (6 days in the G&M) world...I was innudated with catalogues for Companies selling "Baskets". I am thinking to myself how many Basket Companies can there be - and lo and behold - I am still finding out. It is almost a joke truly - for all the companies are selling the same type of baskets - with the same type of contents for a wide variety of prices. In fact, some of the types of baskets are so close in similarity that you know they copied from each other. Note to "Globe and Mail" - Please no more Basket Catalogues. My recycle bin is starting to reject them.
