Early Morning Christmas Mood

Could it be that I am already exited about christmas. As I woke up this morning way too early for my taste, it was still dark outside. For some reason that brought me back to the early december mornings in the kitchen of my parents house, where we would sit with candles on the tables and try to forget that in just a few moments we would have to walk outside in the cold and participate in a new days obligations. I'm ready for candles, sweets, christmas music and cheasy christmas movies... Bring it on. I should have stayed in Chicago. Americans understand the early need for indulging in christmas. They'll probably start decorating soon. Here it might take a whole month still. I'll have to be patient.
