I am that gal that HAS to be done with most (if not all) of my holiday shopping by the time the Black Friday sale comes around. I just do not have the patience for a crowded mall and stacks of tacky sweaters in 23 colors.
Some very nice clients sent along Gap friends and family. And I had NINE kids to buy for this year. NINE! Stop reproducing, people!
Anyway, I got all but 2 toys for my niece and nephew purchased (and I have them all ready to go on Amazon).
This means I need a few stocking stuffers for the niece and nephew, a few small things for 2 friends, some books or whatever for my mother, father, and uncle, and a gift for grandma.
Then I need hostess gifts for parties and I am DONE! Mom, Dad and Uncle will likely choose some sort of theater thing to go enjoy instead of gifts. I am pushing for Vegas and Cirque. But whatever.
I intend to enjoy this holiday season, which officially starts with a party this weekend. It feels good to have most of the hard stuff done!
(And I am drunk off of one cocktail and am so ready for bed. At 8:30!!!)
