When my boys were little, I loaded their stocking up with candy. When they were really little, I put a stuffed animal on top, but as they grew out of liking those it was just the candy. Like the $1 boxes of Starburst, Nerds, Skittles, etc. Maybe a candy cane tube of Hershey's kisses (the only chocolate my oldest liked) so something hung over the top.

I switched from a Fitbit HR that I had to put on the charger just once a week, to a 6 last year, so the battery life was a bit of challenge for me. BUT, it really hasn't been that bad. A full charge will last about a day and a half. Just for reference, I charged my watch fully yesterday morning and put it back on about 9:30am. It is now 10:45am the next day and I'm at 34%. It also charges pretty fast.

Target, Walmart, and Atwoods (regional store, I believe).

Batteries is something I buy every year. Lowe's usually has the best deal, but last year The Home Depot beat them.

I got a new sleigh and I have the whole scene pictured in my head and I just can't wait to see if it comes together. Yeah, I'm ready to decorate NOW.

Hallmark: GAC: I haven't seen the graphic for HMM or Lifetime.

Just a little over a week to get signed up! I'm about to send a reminder email to the folks that usually participate but we haven't heard from. We have 5 that have said they want to play, but haven't gotten their info in (they may have changed their mind, no shame in that). Please check the lists to make sure I didn't miss you!

My boys are hunters, and I've asked them to get me a turkey this year. I've never eaten a wild turkey before though, so I hope I don't regret not searching for the perfect Butterball (there is ALWAYS a difference in taste between wild and farm raised. I don't know how much of a difference there is with turkey).

Yeah, I just said "So, the $25 sheets are $45?". Doesn't bode well for any of the deals this year, does it?

I'm so sorry.

Finally got to the post office and picked mine up. Thanks Brad!

Oh my gosh, I am so excited! Thank you!

I am very excited about this idea.

Tell the relatives they are only allowed to get snippy if they are A) volunteering to host at their house, or B ) volunteering to do the decorating at your house.

In the past, we've sometimes done Christmas parties where we played Dirty Santa. For a couple years in a row, I organized an ornament exchange. But, last Christmas and this most of us work from home so we won't do anything. The company will give us all a gift card, and I will buy for the 4 folks that directly report to me, and I'll take them to their homes.

I will be getting both my 2 oldest grandson's a Switch (yes, one each, even though they live together. In all the ideas I came up with, this one works out the best ). Anyway, I know better than to expect a discount on the console itself, but I'm hoping for a decent bundle. In fact, I'm hoping (but not expecting) for 2 different bundles. Then I'll get them 1 extra game a piece, so I'm hoping for good deals on the games.

OXO Good Grips 4 Piece Stainless Steel Measuring Spoons with Magnetic Snapshttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L9WK26A/?coliid=I2WWL9OP2HHY0R&colid=A5W7XCZLYXTD&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it For anyone that likes to cook or bake. I know I've never been able to find spoons that the measurements didn't eventually wear/wash off. These are painted on too, but because they are stainless steel you could actually etch the measurements on and they'll last forever.
