It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

And it's only 1st October!  And it's looked a lot like Christmas for about two weeks.  Christmas stuff every where in the shops - completely ridiculous.  It sort of makes me mad in a way and it makes me feel really old but I can't help thinking that it wasn't like this when I was young ("back in my day...").  The end of October is more than early enough to start buying sweets and stuff (or even too early still). if I bought them now I would eat them.

But it's not just shops - my mother brought the Christmas Cake yesterday.  On the last day of September.

In other news, I didn't go to work today.  This is the first time this year when I maybe could have gone to work and didn't.  Which is a good thing but also makes me feel bad that I stayed home.  Of course I knew I would sit there wishing I was home if I went.  So instead I stayed home worrying and thinking I should have gone.

I'm still in my PJ's (with a jst fleece over the top) and I've been sleeping lots.  it's all been rather lovely and I'm feeling better than I have since Thurs.  Currently trying to convince myself that I do not need to text my carer and get her to bring me chocolate and coke when she comes.  The lower number of the scales will be much nicer on Wednesday than the treats would be now, right?

2 little tips:

if you fancy 2 things, consider if just one would be enough.
have you tried herbal teas as a comforting drink?

I know what you mean. I remember Charles Schultz's Peanuts comic striip used to sometimes refer to the commercialization of Christmas. He had no idea what was coming...
