I went to Oxnard Costco and saw this – Christmas ribbons! (Today is August 4, 2011). I also saw a lot of toys.
Santa Clause is a busy man. He hires people to come to Oxnard and buy toys for him, you see.
At the toy isle, I heard people saying “Here we go…” or “Oh, Christmas stuff…”
Anyway, I think this is officially the first sign of Christmas in Ventura County. From this point, you may start seeing seasonal items at other stores in Ventura County.
After Oxnard Costco, I went to Bed Bath and Beyond at Oxnard promenade and found a Yankee Candle (Macintosh Spice) on clearance bin. I like to burn candles when I do web design work.
I often work all night when I do web design work. At work, we use the term “burning the midnight oil” a lot. Somehow, that started me to burn candle when I do web design. I have more than a dozen scented candles. My favorite smell is anything that smells like Christmas.
Wow, Christmas time is near. I feel distracted.
