I just officially saw my first Christmas commercial. The Hershey's Kisses one with the kisses as jungle bells, playing "We Wish You A Merry Christmas."

Yee-haw. Christmas is here. And it's only 2 days until Halloween. It's coming late this year.

For me, I always think of the "official" start of the Christmas shopping season as Remembrance Day.

Becky brought pumpkin earrings to work for all the girls today. Teehee. They're fun. I think I'll wear them all weekend.

And tomorrow... it's time for the carnival setup. Heh. Halloween in my life is so predictable. I was going to dress up this year, but I have no costume, and no ideas. So, probably, I won't dress up. Yet again. Ah well. The kids are cuter in costume than I could ever hope to be.

One year ago today: I always remember how much I miss working at the church when I go back for Halloween. I was in the office today, working, and I remember what a great atmosphere it is, and how much I wish that I was still there on a regular basis. I wish I was still part of the office staff, because it's just so comfortable. Even now, I go back in, whether I'm working or not, and Bev makes sure I know what's in the fridge, and who's got cake, and who's got new exciting things going on. I can walk into any office I please, and it's all good. I don't have to feel like I'm a visitor there--I'm still just staff.
