Now that Halloween is over, is it Christmas? When is it an appropriate time to break out the favorite holiday tunes? Is it too early to put a blow-up snowman in the yard and erect a tree in the living room?

It is finally that time of the season for…sickness! The flu, stomach bug, and allergies acting up, are all around in our air.
