How fun!
I am an Atheistic Pagan Witch and my husband and children are atheists, but we all love decorating and watching Christmas movies! Our tree is winter themed with lots of snowflakes and owls. It is mostly white and clear, yet if you look, you can see a bit of color. Those are ornaments belonging to my children. I would hide them in the back, but they complain! (My children are and nearly 18.)Let me preface this by saying 2 things:
a. I'm Jewish and non-religious as they come
b. My husband is pretty much an atheist as well.
However....I find myself this year feeling like we NEED to have our home looking festive for the season.
Some radio stations start playing the 24/7 Christmas music on 11/1. It's way too early.Someone in the apartment building next door already has their (presumably fake) Christmas tree set up in the corner of their living room It's way too early for Christmas stuff
Bah humbugSome radio stations start playing the 24/7 Christmas music on 11/1. It's way too early.

I can see December 1st or even the day after Thanksgiving but NOVEMBER 1st? Can we please get through Thanksgiving first? How could anyone- even the biggest fan of Christmas music NOT get burned out on it after hearing it for 2 full months?Bah humbug
I know. I aree. It's getting ridiculous. There were stores here that started putting the Christmas stuff out right after the Halloween stuff hit the shelves.I wish we could get through Thanksgiving before we have to start seeing all the Christmas stuff up.
