I noticed I still have 2 rolls of wrapping paper in the spare bedroom standing in a corner that I have not put away from last Christmas. If we are so close, I'll just leave them so I'm ready. I have done some Christmas shopping already, clearance long undies for the hubby, shhhh, don't tell!!!!

See, you are ahead of the game. Good job! I shop for Christmas gifts all year long so I too have a few (not too many though.)

I usually warn folks when I offer a present with the preface of "It's just a me present. Don't get too excited." I like to tell people who can't not know what their gifts are (you know those folks) that they are getting a fuzzy toilet seat cover. So there we go. The list is complete: long-handles, styrofoam head, and toilet seat cover. What more could a guy ask for.

I also shop and make Christmas all year.
Making shawls this year for 2 daughter in laws: one in black sequels, one in black with random black shiny beads.
Also making shawls for Veterans this year too.
Some with pockets (for lost remotes for the TV), puzzle books.

Maybe yes, maybe no only the Shadow knows for sure and he's not telling.

As long as they don't start playing the Christmas music yet. There's a radio station here that goes to an all Christmas music format the week of Thanksgiving and plays it 24 hours a day through December. I've always liked hearing it at Christmas but they've just about ruined it for me.

If it makes you feel better, I watched a little Christmas clip of snow and a crackling fire etc. today. Today was our coolest day in a month.

Now you're just getting serious because I can listen to the Little Drummer Boy any time of year. I love it acapella and I love it on the pipes.

Let's just leave out Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.
