In our house Christmas started on the 23rd December, Norway celebrates the 24th. On the other hand it might have lasted a bit longer than at most people.
Christmas decorations taken down in Februrary. We also inserted an iron spike into our lawn and tied a tree to it with lights. It wasn’t uncommon for the tree to still be standing in April/May. One year the lights were turned off when my mother ran over the extension cable with the lawnmower.
the husband put xmas music on about two weeks ago and i FLIPPPPPPPPPPPPED.
although i do LOVE ME some John Denver Christmas music. YES JOHN DENVER. HE RULES!!! please daddy don’t get drunk this christmas is my fav.
David Grisman’s Acoustic Christmas; Liona Boyd’s Christmas Album; The Muppet’s Christmas (with John Denver); Acoustic Guitar Workshop’s Acoustic Christmas; and let us never be without Dylan Thomas and his own reading of A Child’s Christmas in Wales. Ah, good times, good times!
okay, so this is the first podcast of yours i’ve heard. and can i just say that your voice sounds just like you look!! i love your giggle, too. heh.

I like Christmas music too, but I usually wait until Thanksgiving day to start listening to it.

I luv the background music he picked for your segment. Too funny, very happy.

Hee. That’s so awesome! I love Christmas music too, but I normally don’t start playing it until the day after American Thanksgiving.
Although I did buy Josh Groban’s Christmas CD which came out like 2 weeks ago, and I’ve listened to it a few times already.

You may be giggling about Percy Faith, but that bed music is from the Dating Game!~,:^)
I’m now looking forward to your annual big ol’ Christmas post redux.

I recall a year where the live tree in the living room stayed up until Valentines… And the BNL and Cris Isaak Christmsa albums are great; get ‘em now.
