Is Anyone Else Already Making Plans for Christmas?

[dauna]

The calendar says it's the first day of summer, but I already have sugarplums dancing in my head.  I've already gotten a Christmas cross-stitch book in the mail and am beginnng to browse websites for early gift ideas.  Does anyone else out there do any early shopping or get an early start on making gifts?

i don't start this early but some do.i think if i see something for someone might work like for my daughter,but my sons no.iknow at walgreens they had xmas stuff half off so i got cologne should of got some for someone else for next year. i did buy something for someone one year around this time but then forgot about it.so i will write stuff down somewhere so not to forget

Not making plans don't celebrate.

I am trying to save points on some earning sites for Chritmas. I think about having enough for Christmas presents.

Kids last day of school was Friday, we are just starting to enjoy the summer. Maybe in a couple o fmonths we will turn to Christmas.

Goodness no.  The most planning I've done for Christmas was looking with some coworkers today at when it and other holidays fall, and then bemoaning the fact that it's on a Tuesday so we don't just get a long weekend out of it.

 no. We don't start  get ready for Christmas last October.that's when I think he's just thought order catalogs for Christmas. Christmas time is that after that time you started shopping July was up early next January! So I will start looking the thing about Christmas  October or November.

Nope, not at all. I have no plans honestly, never do. I don't think I'll even do any decorating this year. I might just set up some lights indoors this year, and none outside. I love the holiday lights, so that's probably the only thing I'll do (which is really the only thing I do every year).

I've already bought my cat's their "big" Christmas gift, found an awesome price on some cat furniture on Ebay--got 2 different ones for the price of what one would have been at a pet store. It has got me in the mood to do Christmas BIG this year since we didn't have much of one last year.

It's funny to see this on here today because I just asked my kids to start giving me a few ideas.  Love the holidays!!!

Well, even though years ago I used to prepare for Christmas around September, I have not ever thought about it in June or July at all. And the past 5 years or so, I only started to think about it in late October, early November. But hey, everyone does things different. I do believe that is it better to be prepared the not prepared at all.

yep ive been keeping a list  of what family may need or want and putting back some money   

[davidf938]

Absolutely not. It's just another day when you on't have family. People who keep reminding us of what we do9 not have are simply cruel.

I am not making plans yet but my children are making plans for me. LOL

You are much more organized than me, I'm just happy that's it almost the 4th of July and Christmas is months and months away!
