  2. NOT A CHANCE..at least in my opinion. Due to the past few months I really see an extreme "fast foward" to retail experience that was already beginning to exist more in cyberspace than brick and mortar.

    We may see a few  deals in physical stores only ,but stock will be very very limited and probably a repeat of an earlier deal or subpar items...IMHO

  3. I know it is a little off topic...but is anyone else having issues with ups? I'm getting my stuff ,  but no honk ,knock or even pull into drive.. I live in the country so if they did I would know and my dog would definitely bark..last 2 items delivered were like this and one was a phone ... I have been home(of course) and have even watched for them....but they must walk to just the side edge of my porch which is not in clear view unless I get up and check, Plus this is not my normal delivery guy for sure  its to early in the day and"Tom" always backs in and honks...just wondering.

  4. Ya weather is CRAZY here. We hit mid 70s a week or so again then the next day it snowed. End of last week we had 60s one day then a snow storm for 2 days. This week it was decent out now it’s stupid cold again. I think Mother Nature done lost her mind

     

    I personally think she's menopausal. hot, cold, sweet, grumpy. all in 5 seconds flat!!

     

    Been there ,done that and have a boatload of the t-shirts, all sizes, because menopause likes to mess with you just like Mother Nature!

     

     I know it is not politically correct,but I just don't give a HOOT! At least not in this second, wait a few it might change...lol

  5. Today is baking day. I just haven't been in the mood or very motivated yet, but today is the day I scheduled, and I'm ready! Not very many things, or anything too adventurous, but I'll get all the favorites done.

    Buckeyes

    Sugar cookies (just plain, unfrosted)

    Chocolate chip cookies

    Brownies

    Cool whip cookies

     

    Should be easy peasy. I'll turn on christmas music when the boys are up, and have a grand time!

     

    For wrapping, I have a few small things that came in over the weekend. So I'll finish all those up tonight.

    And looks like I may have 2 things that won't make it. Ones been hanging out in SC for 2 or 3 days, and the other is somewhere between NY and GA. I'm not convinced the USPS even knows exactly where it is. But neither of those are major, so not a huge deal. Just frustrating, especially since the one that is MIA was shipped 12/16.

     

     I have to ask Cool Whip cookies? never hear of them... would you be willing to share recipe?

  6. All of my orders are taking forever to arrive. The USPS is not my friend this season and the companies using FedEx SmartPost are on my naughty list.

     

    I’m still waiting on an order that shipped on 12/13...delivery estimate is now 12/23 and it only had to go 130 miles.[emoji34]

     

    I know where you are coming from...but believe it or not I've noticed it's not usps It is truly the FedEX part that is FUBAR...in all my orders once usps has my package its here within 2 days or less and I'm rural.

  7. I am done :trampolin !!!!

     

    DH decided to make my life easy and bought kringle express type bags from QVC when they were on sale.  We and our kids are older so the the are going to be reused.( lord help those who rip into them). I can honestly say it took less than an hour and there were 30-40 gifts(including ones for grands). I finished and my back didn't even ache...BEST WRAPPING SESSION EVER!!!!!
