Tis the Season!

So last year, I remember going outside the day after Thanksgiving to find that my neighbor Kelly had completely finished all of her Christmas shopping by 1 oclock or so. I was jealous. To celebrate the holiday season and ride it through without having to beat the clutter at the mall at the last minute hours was completely admirable. So..I decided that I would actually do it this year.

The alarm bursted me out of bed by 7:30 yesterday. I was out the door and on my way by 8 am. I managed to get a good chunk of my shopping done and I too was home by 1 in the afternoon. This left me in quite a festive little mood so I decided to drag all the decorations out of the attic.

My house now looks like Christmas exploded all throughout it. I even wrote out all my Christmas cards! It's a good feeling, you know..I'm excited that I too can ride out the Christmas season and actually ENJOY it this year.
