Today I learned that christmas is only 32 days away, and there are specific websites that only serve the purpose of counting down the days until christmas!
For example this one .. www.xmasclock.com/
Christmas is a controversial topic for many - not only in terms of religion, but also because some people REALLY love it, while others REALLY hate it.
Some people already sing christmas songs in September and can't wait until Halloween passes so that they can finally put up their holiday decor.
They own christmas-themed-everything: Pyjamas, Mugs, Accessories, and even household items.
They would happily watch "Elf" at anytime during the year, and are genuinely sad when christmas desserts, gingerbread and speculoos have vanished from the grocery store shelves.
Others complain as soon as they see the first christmas merchandise and food items in stores, and would rather hide from all the christmas hype until they finally agree to having a family dinner on christmas day.
They think that christmas is totally over-rated and over-commercialized, and having to life in a house decorated with countless smiling elves and Santa's would be their worst nightmare.
