My SS came, I know, haven't gotten my ornament person's gorgeous choices uploaded, may have to retake them as I think they were on an ipad mini which died... But I love my choices. Now I can learn to crochet and I got a cool water bottle, which I can always use and the cats attacked the cat toys, they are scattered along the stairs....

My gifts also have left the building...LOL

I came home friday evening to a great surprise. I'll post pics later but the ornaments are awesome! Waiting to take pics until the tree goes up. Thanks.

Probably not until after Thanksgiving but I finally bought a pencil slim tree since the apartment is so small....So I'm eager to put it together and decorate....

Wish you were closer, most of us prefer the dark meat.....The breast is the last to go and it gets drowned in cranberry sauce to make it moist enough...

Gotta order a dinner from Publix I guess. Same thing as always for us since my mom passed.... Plus Jeff will make his bourbon cranberry sauce. Probably an extra veggie or two. Only 5 of us....

Got mine! Let the shopping begin!

My hubs hasn't asked for any DVD's for a long time now. Netflix is spoiling him....

Just ordered a long sleeve tee this time! Woohoo! (I know it's Florida but I stay cold now all the time...)

I love Flamingos and Santa clauses, I know, strange but true. My dad played Santa Claus from before I was born until shortly before his passing at age 70.... He was Santa Claus.... And I just love Flamingos. Thinking of starting steampunk collections as well and also Harry Potter, my other 2 loves....

My link is for a book I adore, everything Cherie Priest writes has been awesome but this book drew me back into Steampunk in a big way!! http://www.amazon.com/Boneshaker-Clockwork-Century-Cherie-Priest/dp/0765318415/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1445809973&sr=8-1&keywords=boneshaker

My oldest works and the youngest is in college...in this same boat... The youngest wants a Surface but has a good laptop so not worried about tech unless a good deal hits.

Yep, just like the swallows return to Capistrano....LOL

My kids like the stockings better than big stuff, of course they are teens/young adults now but they've always wanted a stocking, preferably with cash inside...

KMART is still around? They've closed so many here that I haven't been in one now in at least 3 years....Last time was to buy a desk for a family that we adopted at work....

I love it and this year I can go smaller....3XL compared to a 6XL last time I ordered.... Big difference in a few years.... Of course my hubs has taken over the larger sizes for me...

Harbor Freight 10/9

Ready to go...

Mostly looking for gift card and stocking stuffers as the boys have said that's what they like best (opening the stockings...) But my youngest is a freshman in college and he's looking for a Surface for school...

Cash, although I might break into my stash on my prepaid Jamberry card. Trying to save that for the conference registration in January though..... Depends on how many parties I have booked between now and the end of November....

I'm ready to watch Christmas shows this year, hubs though controls the remote a lot of the time.... Sigh....

I've been kind of absentee the last year or so due to finances. I'd like to get back in the swing now that things are finally looking up. Let me know if that's okay.

Black Friday shopping I always have so much fun! Waiting to buy socks.

I might even have some shopping to do this year!!

Yes I'm not feeling it. Been another tough year and I'm helping to support my youngest brother in addition to my family plus try to do all the senior stuff with my youngest. My oldest son has more holiday spirit than I do and he's the grinch of the family.
