December, the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

​We all know why we keep hearing Christmas music in the month of December. Christmas is just around the corner, and many of us are scrambling to make sure our loved ones have the most magical Christmas holiday ever. We also are driving ourselves crazy with planning trips or planning where to store all the arriving family members. We are planning meals, coordinating schedules, email Christmas lists, over charging our credit cards and just plain charging into the fray at the malls. All in the name of love - not the St. Valentine's Day brand but my children will fill my heart to overflowing - when they wake me at the crack of dawn after I spent all putting together the Barbie dream house - kind of love.

As the editor of the Irvington Reader, it is a most wonderful time of year because I get to tell our readers that big things are coming. We have been working like Santa's elves to meet a Christmas Eve deadline for the printed edition of Issue #2 - Winter/Christmas - of the Irvington Reader. It is also a most wonderful time of the year because, keep your fingers crossed, by Saturday, December 10th the Kindle edition of our first issue Autumn/Halloween will be made available for download. Watch for the announcement on Facebook and Twitter.
