I am so over the holidays

It is Friday and Fridays are for fun. I am tired of the holidays. The decorations have been around for awhile and I am  already tired of Christmas cookies.  I never get tired of eating them just of looking at them.  There have been commercials on television for weeks with picture of holiday decorations in them, and there have been holiday decorations in the stores since mid September.  I have read several news stories and advertisements about black friday and cyber monday deals. I am so over the holiday movies because they have been playing since October 1st.

I am ready to move on and looking forward to spring. Maybe I would enjoy the holidays more if they only came once a year and for a short time. I used to complain that the holiday season takes up the whole last quarter of the year but now it starts in the middle of the third quarter. I know that when people buy stuff it is good for the economy and I am alright with that but maybe we can add some new holidays to the mix because the ones we have now get very monotonous after a few months.

As for the elph on the shelf I think the toy is creepy but it is also probably flammable which is a good thing. If not for the steep price of $25 I would buy one just so I could watch it burn.
