Ugly Sweater Day 2023

    Christmas Sweater
Tis the time for displaying those festive sweaters some believe to be ugly. Yes, that elderly virgin aunt has knitted another masterpiece this year and if you don't wear it you'll become yet another target of her wrath.

Each third Friday in December we find Ugly Sweater Day upon us once again.

I've had several of these festive monstrosities over the years. I pretty much have worn them all in stride so as not to hurt any feelings over the Christmas season.

Anyway they are good for a laugh in select company anyway. I recall a year when everyone wanted a picture of me on their cell phone.

It is said that all this started in the 1980s. I don't know how much of a joke it was meant to become but it has been quite a laughing stock periodically in my neck of the woods.

They're great for parties and we even have had competitions to see who was sporting the ugliest garment.

Regardless of whether you love them or hate them happy Ugly Sweater Day to you !
