I think I might actually manage to finish my X-mas shopping a month early...

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

and I’m giddy with glee!

However, I’m a bit worried. If I finish a month early, then I’ll have all the extra time to second guess my choices…

What if I start returning stuff, and swaping it out for other stuff, and then I decide that I liked the old stuff better but then when I go to exchange again it’s gone and I have to get something else and this year winds up being a gong show with me frantically trying to finish on the 24th, just like every year past. :eek:

<gulp>

I think I’ll go lie in my bed and pull my covers over my head.

I handmade all my gifts. I’ve only got a few left (some photo framing) so I’m almost done too.

I can’t really rethink them, though. :slight_smile:

Me too! Me too!

That’s why this year is such and anomily! Perhaps the moon is in my court or something…

Oddly enough I’m ahead of schedule as well this year. I also make gifts but I’m usually cobbling them together frantically a day or two before Christmas.

Weird.
Oh, and some of my homemade gifts are food. It’s the one thing I’m sure everyone will like. (I hope.)

In typical guy fashion I noticed the date was November 19 and reflected I only had four more weeks before I needed to start shopping for gifts.

I do all my shopping on the Internet. No mess, no stress. I just have to order everything with enough time to spare.
