It's the holiday season...

So while I'm vacationing, I'm...

Baking cookies and, of course, adding to the scar total. At least, this time, I burned the fingers. Just another reminder...don't drink and bake. Bubba and I hope to do some gingerbread before I go back to work all too soon.

Wrapped the gifts and hid very carefully. I always hate it when I wrap something, hide it well and then I can't find it. Not this year!

Made a trip to ye old Post Office and survived. All the relatives, in-laws and outlaws: your requisite goodies and Christmas letters are in the mail. Here's hoping you get them on time this year. (I love tracking packages online. I can tell when a certain brother-in-law leaves his at the post office until New Years' Eve, like last year). Don't say we didn't send anything...I have proof!

Did lots and lots of online shopping. The lines into the nearby HoleyMoleySpaceship Mall are ghastly. Would rather poke myself with knitting needles than get in line to go into the parking lot. Thank you online retailers and online photo processing places. I couldn't live without you (or at least it would be more painful).

Thanking my lucky stars that I am so lucky to be able to shop. So many people aren't. Besides shopping, I'm also upping my charitable contributions. I believe in paying it forward.

Hope you do too! More to come...stay tuned!
