Tis the season!

Has anybody been brave enough to start listening to Christmas music yet?? I thought about it for a second and I almost started the music and changed my mind. I am afraid it is too early and I would hate to be tired of the holiday music before Christmas comes!

The local station we listen to here at work is playing 3 songs at the top of every hour. I am enjoying it, but it isn't so much where I will get sick of it by Christmas.

Not yet... but in a couple of weeks!  One local radio station turns into the Christmas Music station the day before THanksgiving... they do non-stop Christmas music... 24/7 until New Year's Day.  We usually start listening to it the day after Thanksgiving...

I've started but it doesn't feel right yet. My husband and I are going to do Christmas shopping at an outlet almost 2 hours away on Friday. I'm making Christmas Mixes now and I'm sure I'll be ready by then.

Hillysuze, you are too cute!! I cant start Christmas shopping yet, home shopping and wedding stuff are the extent of my shopping these days! I hope you have a Holly Jolly Day! Does your DH let you listen to Christmas music with him?? My FI wont come into the same city when I am playing holiday music, he hates it!

In 11 days, as soon as I am back from a work trip, the carols come out! I love Pandora!

Nope!  The "rule" growing up was that we had to wait until after Thanksgiving.  We eventually changed to waiting until Mom's birthday the week before.  I couldn't listen to it now...it's still too hot to keep my blinds open during the day here--not good Christmas music weather at all!

i've heard some songs in the stores (kohl's, jcpenny, etc) already.  usually about every 4-5 song.

I turned it on for a bit this weekend while cleaning, but I am Holiday season obsessed. For me, Halloween is just a formality that we have to get out of the way before the celebrating can begin. Come Nov1, it is on! Holly Jooly Christmas and Happy Thanksgiving here I come (and department stores too!)

Glad I am not the only one who feels like this.

I have not but I noticed they have been playing it in stores.

Listening to it at work on accuholiday.com, only b/c I have 7 days left before I am out of here (to be a SAHM) and need motivation to keep working. It's makes me happy and puts me in a great mood.

I was about to say "Wow, what a coincidence, they're doing that exact thing on a station here too!"  And then I looked at your location, hah.

I work part time (for the discount) at Michaels arts and craft store...and we started playing non-stop Christmas music the day after Halloween.  Eventhough I only work there a few hours a week, I am already sick of the Christmas music.  Theres just something wrong with selling Halloween decoration and listening to Christmas songs while its 90 degrees outside.

It started in August. lol!

My rule is no Christmas music until the day after Thanksgiving! People need to slow it down and enjoy each holiday at a time and not be in such a rush to get to Christmas. I am dreading next week when the radio stations start playing Christmas music. I will be listening to CDs until Nov 27th!

I started listening to Christmas music a week ago on my slacker radio. I haven't listened to it since then so I don't get burned out, but it was just enough to start getting me in the mood.
