A couple of weeks ago I was heading into a grocery store with some female family members, and the Salvation Army guy who was ringing the bell out front said, "Hey, Ladies, you wanna ring my bell?" in a very suggestive manner.
My mouth dropped open.
My boys love the cute, lighted, wire sculpture reindeer at our neighborhood entrances. One morning, at the crack of dawn, I saw those cute little reindeer posed in a compromising position.
I burst out laughing.
Everywhere I go, every store, has holiday music playing. And before I even realize what I'm hearing...I find myself singing along, in my head. And it's darn addictive. AND, I notice other people singing OUTLOUD. And wiggling or dancing. It's infectious.
I can't help but smile.
And the craziest part of all? I imagine myself baking all kinds of holiday goodies to wrap and give to people. I have visions so strongly that I can smell the cookies, taste the chocolate turtles in my mouth...and then I realize I'll be lucky if I can make one batch of holiday cookies, much less bake enough that look good and are edible to give to people!!
My mouth waters.
What holiday craziness have you seen out and about? Good or bad.
I've seen cars decorated with Rudolph noses and antlers.
I've seen blow-up Santas on motorcycles.
Do you have decorations in your yard or on your house?
I haven't put up our lights yet. We're fairly low key on decorations but we like to do something.
I see some houses with no decorations at all, and I wonder why.
I see some houses with decorations out the wazoo, all chaotic and crazy, and I wonder why.
Gotta love a little holiday madness.
As long as it's harmless.
