I am planning to make tomorrow a day filled with shopping.  I have so much to get done for Christmas and I am really starting to feel overwhelmed.  I need to check stores for all sorts of different items I am looking for.  And I need to start looking online for what I can not find.  And I need to do it quickly or I won’t have time to get everything done.

I have some interesting things on my list that I am looking for- a headlight for a bike, some 5.11 Tactical Pants, a glass cylinder shaped measuring cup, and so much more.  Why can’t people just ask for things I can find at Target?  Oh well- everyone has their own things they want and I want to get everyone what they want.  Some people probably wonder why I want some of the things I want.

So tomorrow I am off to get a whole bunch of shopping done!


There are so many differnet ideas out there for Christmas gifts.  From big things to little things.  It always amazes me how advertisers try to make us think that people spend a lot more money than they really do.

Why would someone list a Wii game as a stocking stuffer?  If I pay $50-$60 for a game it is going to be a regular old present.  Just because something is small doesn’t make it a stocking stuffer.  I mean diamond rings are small, but no one would ever call that a stocking stuffer.

Guess I’m just grumpy tonight.


I got this idea as an email and I love it so much that I had to pass it on.

When doing your Christmas cards this year, take one card and send it to this address. If we all pass this on and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these wonderful, special people who have sacrificed so much, would get! This is a small way to say “Thank You” to them.
