Panther Perspectives
When do you begin preparing for Christmas?
December, because that is when Christmas was supposed to start. It always starts in December for me, but for other people it may not.
December, because winter.
November, because Christmas the spirit for me is all the way, and it is no longer the spooky season.
It definitely begins after Thanksgiving, because Thanksgiving is an awesome holiday, and I hate how it is ignored. We should concentrate all the Christmas spirit after Thanksgiving.

Right after Thanksgiving, because it feels more like Christmas when there are lots of Black Friday sales going on.
Right after Halloween. I start to listen to Christmas music, because there is no festive music to listen to during Thanksgiving.
After October 31, because it is Christmas. Thanksgiving you sit there and eat. It is not that memorable.
