Christmas is coming and it’s time to start making plans. While I consider myself an “after Thanksgiving” person, many people are ready for the holiday spirit now.  Stores have the decorations and merchandise, tickets are on sale for events, the Southern Christmas Show is happening this weekend, and I’ve even found myself humming some Christmas carols.
