It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

I'm a couple days delayed in this post, which isn't much a surprise since that's usually the case. While at Target shopping for Halloween candy and extra do-dads for our Brattle party this past weekend. I got smacked in the face (metaphorically) with the Big X. A week before Halloween, the Target staff was already consolidating the goodies and making way for some ho, ho, hos. You would think I'd be used to this. It happens every year.

To top it off, while the powers that be were taking down the Open Studio signs on Channel St, which is technically my backyard, they lit up all the trees on the block in white lights (pics to come). With the 40 degree weather and day light savings, it really is like Christmas. It's that time of year where you slip and slide through time (and the streets) from November to January. Then it's dead winter for 3 months and everyone suffers from S.A.D. and hibernates. February is never a good month.
