FReeper Canteen - Christmas In July - 23 July 2015
Our Troops Rock!!! | Canteen DJ's

Posted on 07/22/2016 5:56:20 PM PDT by AZamericonnie



The FReeper Canteen Presents.....

"Christmas in July"

There's nothing like a few days of blistering 100 degree temperatures to make us wistful for the frosty months of winter. Throw in some high humidity and zero air movement and suddenly shoveling snow, navigating icy sidewalks and bundling up in layers of sweaters, scarves and jackets sounds like a mighty fun time.



It's hot, you're sweaty and longing for some relief from the heat, aren't you? And while thinking about winter, you're probably also dreaming of all those snowy nights of Christmas celebrations? Well, you can't actually change the season now, but the closest you can get to doing so is reduce the time left for Christmas and celebrate it now, in July. That's what many are doing year after year. An unofficial holiday, Christmas in July imitates the festivities of the actual Christmas and signifies our yearning for the coolness of winter amid the scorching summer months.



Soooo......krank up those A/C's, don your favorite sweater & let's all have some hot chocolate!

Glad you are home, and that you are scheduled for the hyperbaric oxygen treatment.

Prayers continue for your recovery.
