Today's post is SHOPPING! I am not a Black Friday shopper...the main parts of my shopping are done before that. I am not a wait till the last minute shopper, either. Actually, I really am not wait till the last minute at about anything I do. Makes me nervous. I don't do well with nervous... So, in October I get a lot of the bigger things done. Then that way I find that most of the bigger items grandkids want are still available. Less stress... don't need that last minute stress. I suppose that some people thrive on that last minute rush. This is not to say that I don't buy things doing the end of the shopping season, it's just that I get these wonderful savings coupons and I hate to waste them. Also lots of "rewards" from various stores that I do shop are sent to me about this time. So, I get a few smaller items and little stocking type stuffers.
For the most part, I do like to shop, if the weather is reasonable, I feel fairly well and have the time. I don't like standing in lines or in tents or whatever that some people do and no, no way will I wait out in the cold at odd hours in the morning. Never will happen...
But, yes, I do have a tendency to OVERDO~ But I love to see those cute grandkids faces as they get that much-wanted gift. I am a spoiling gramma. It's true :( Below some evidence of the fact:
A few days back we had a post about Christmas activities, programs and such. Had a busy week so didn't have time to always hunt down pictures. Here's Tyson in the school Christmas play. He is the one with the suspenders. Ain't he charmin'??
Yes! Tyson is definitely charming, and cute too.
