Fun-Time Christmas Shopping



I am going Christmas shopping today. I can't wait! I'll be surrounded by oh-so-quietness, calmness and I'll be stress-free. Not a screaming mother or child for miles.



Huh?


I'll be Christmas shopping online.


Love, love, love it.


I'll be sending out Christmas cards today, too. I bought those online back in January. My Christmas stamps arrived last week--bought those online, also.

Ain't Life grand when you figure out some of the secrets? :)

Oh, and I even bought a Christmas gift for myself this weekend. It's a set of three Martha Stewart holiday dvd's. Got it for --get this-- $1 on Ebay. (And okay, okay.... you non-Martha fans are snickering, "She paid too much." But did I ask you??) ...heh....

P.S. Yikes! So there I was doing my Christmas shopping at Ye Olde Amazon.com, when I spied two sets of dvd's I didn't even know existed, but ones I'd desired for eons and eons: The first seasons of My Three Sons and The Donna Reed Show. Hooray! I won't put them on my Christmas list since Tom and I are doing Low-Key-Christmas this year (due to all the $$$ we put into that mega-complex we've got going in our backyard, also known as the barn). But alas! Someday I hope to own these....... happy sigh....

$1.00? What a score!
Online shopping is such a dream!
I purchased all my gift cards online.
No need to drive around town.
When you've got the internet.
Enjoy!

Have fun shopping! I do my shopping online as well since we homeschool & my children are always with me. I do enjoy not having to face the crowds and madness though. :)

Unfortunately guys aren't able to shop online for Christmas. The delivery deadline would be too tight.

Us guys don't start Christmas shopping until the 24th. :)

I love shopping on line, too. Cyber Monday, I got a lot of shopping done on Amazon.com. Love the free shipping.
It is so nice to be able to get in the Christmas shopping mood, by listening to a few Christmas CD's and sitting in the comfort of your home.
No crowds, no driving, no schedule.

We'd give a lot to have a barn. We're having to store our winter's supply of hay under a tarp - and have to dig it out of the snow in order to get to it. We have no place to put our tractor (never mind our cars - no garage either), or our firewood, and the little shed attached to the back of the house is so jam-packed with tools, and animal feed, and our chest freezer, that you can barely move around in there. What we wouldn't give to have a barn...
