Small Thoughts

Last year when I was also participating in NaBloPoMo, I found it hard to write something each day, but I managed.  In part this was because I was writing in a different blog, a topical one, and the topic itself was a help.  This year, I'm finding it a lot harder.  A small factor in this is that we're no longer getting the local newspaper.  I used to begin every day with it - I live in a small town, so the paper is about breakfast-size.  It always gave me at least a fall-back topic.

So - I have to confess to choosing the wrong blog for the challenge this year. 

One small thought tonight is that I shouldn't be impatient at all the Christmas carols already to be heard on TV shows and commercials.  At least they are explicit Christmas songs.  Last year I noticed nearly at the end of the season that there was little such music to be heard.  Even though I'm a Buddhist, I kind of missed it.  Many people had gotten themselves tangled up in the political correctness that requires keeping mum about divinities and such.  So instead of a Silent Night it was a silent season.  Comparatively.  Wonder what will happen this year?
