18 yo Miss Fairy Bread and I are heading out today to do ALL our Christmas shopping in one hit. It's only 27 sleeps until Christmas. Eeek !
I hate the shops in December and I have two quilts to finish so I'm doing this now in the hope that I can devote my time elsewhere for all of December. So off we go- armed with a list. Hopefully by tonight I'll be feeling virtuously organised and smug.
Have a beautiful day.
Update: 4 and a half hours, and many dollars lighter, (but not too many because I'm trying to have a frugal Christmas ) I am home and I am exhausted. I am also happy to report we did get almost everything, (only two presents to get) so I am one happy shopper. I caved in finally and bought a new Christmas tree (50% off- 7 foot Californian Pine) and a mini Christmas tree for the table as well. I bought my last Christmas tree in 1992 so it was time for a new one. Now to wrap everything !
