I found a website with a Christmas countdown. I didn't look very long, so if someone finds a prettier one, please post the link.

Those of you wanting to know the exact time may want to take this into account!

I have mixed feelings about Christmas. It’s a happy time, but people put way too much emphasis on the gifts. You can’t escape the materialism, especially when you work in retail.

But it IS the exact time where I live.

I haven't even bought any gifts yet, but the kids are expecting some, so I guess I'll have to go out and be materialistic.

And Clueless, you'll have to think of something other than a digital camera.

Problem is people get too stressed out. Who says you need to cook for 100 people and make sure to still have left overs?! lol keep it simple, and enjoy it more, is what I say.

Good idea. I could even add a banana and some grapes, and she'd get four gifts. That should be enough for anyone.

I still have a week and a half of delivering Christmas packages. The snow can stay up in the sky as far as I'm concerned.

I hope it doesn't snow at all anymore here in St. Louis this year. I like a green Christmas.
