When the weather becomes cooler.
-
I get it right after Thanksgiving
-
It gets harder and harder each year as Corporate America desperately tries to boost year-end revenue by extending the Christmas buying season earlier and earlier. In my part of the US, some chain stores were putting out Christmas decorations and trees the first week in September!
-
On my birthday which is December 5. Or you could say on December 26 for the following year cause that is when I start buying for next year's Christmas.
-
I feel the Christmas spirt all year long. In our family, Christmas is usually about arguing and getting ticked off at everyone else! Holidays are so much fun here! lol
-
Mostly around September, but always when I hear Christmas music I get into the spirit!
-
The middle of December; on the Twelfth day before Christmas....
-
After the first couple of sips ;)
-
mid november...that's when i start putting christmas cds in my car.
-
I don't get into the spirit until well after Thanksgiving. I love Thanksgiving. It's all that great food. And I gotta have haupia after the turkey.
-
Nov 1st. As soon as I can, I love the Christmas spirit
-
I hate to be a scrooge, but I never get into the christmas spirit. That's not to say that I'm a meanie either.
-
Thanksgiving day.
-
About lunchtime on the 25th December.
-
... mostly from a few days before to a few days after ... with a very slight trace kept year round ...
-
When Jesus Christ comes into my heart.
-
Random times, usually starts before Halloween, and becmes more frequent closer to Thanksgiving, then from then on until New Years, I'm singing and decorating and have the best time with it.
-
At the end of October, as the first questions about Christmas appear on AB... X-mas should have not more than 12 days, here the Bollywood version: 12 days of Krishna: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owK5tHjL0aE

I like the festivity of Christmas, but those feelings have disappeared many years ago.
-
I am sad to say that since I have moved out on my own, and not had the financial backing to get decent gifts for everyone on my list, the "christmas spirit" escapes me.
-
Since I don't have children at home anymore it doesn't start until after Thanksgiving. I still decorate the house from top to bottom and front to back though. My husband just shakes his head. It's a Wonderful Life and Christmas Vacation are required viewing. ;o)
-
When I hear my mom yelling at my dad to put the Christmas lights up, and then my dad saying that he's busy, then my mom saying that he said that last time, then my dad saying he didn't. That is just how my Christmas Spirit starts.
-
as soon as the bills are paid...
-
When I see the decorations go up in the stores I get excited. THen I put up my tree and start making decorations. I love it.
-
november
-
I start to think about it in september, but I really get into holiday spirit after Thanksgiving.
-
When i smell or hear a roaring fire on a cold fall night. usually around October, sometimes sooner sometimes later
-
Last time = T-Giving 1974! ;-)
-
Christmas eve.
-
I start feeling it Dec. 26th. It lasts until Dec. 25th. My poor husband and I have an agreement about Christmas songs not being played in his hearing year round. For some reason, he doesn't want to listen to those in July. lol
-
Dec 26 Then it too late.
-
Nah just a little slow.
-
when people start to talk 'bout it everywhere
-
Around the start of december when all the christmas decs are out in the stores and they're all playing xmas carols.
-
It depends every year. This year hasn't been so swell in terms of family relationships, hence I am not feeling the Xmas spirit at all, and it's only a couple sleeps to go. (Well for me it is, because we celebrate Christmas mostly on Xmas eve. We look at lights, do carols, and open presents on Xmas eve, and leave some for Xmas day).
-
At the start of December. It is when I start making my Christmas preparations.
-
the smell of pine does the trick..but with my paper tree it takes a lot now days to get me a real christmassy feeling..listening to carols helps
-
I don't. I don't like all the hype to get people to spend spend spend! Greed! Children seldom or have no idea what the true meaning for this holiday is for. They think of it only as a time to get presents. They see a nativity scene and it has no real meaning to them. Children go with their parents to Christmas Eve services who never see the inside of a church for the rest of the year. So why should I have a Christmas spirit? I love Yeshua but not the hype frenzy of Xmas.
