Celebration Weekend Recap

It's Monday again.  How do they keep coming faster?  Did you get a lot done this weekend or spend it getting into mischief?   We started off the weekend right with a Friday night viewing of Spaceballs to honor the newly released news of Spaceballs 2 .  It was kind of funny because all I could hear during the movie were the times my dad laughed at certain parts when we went to see it in theaters.  I'm glad I have a few good memories like that of him. Several weeks ago, the Mr saw some travel article about an old school donut shop he wanted to go to sometime.  (We're suckers for the old school places over the decorate a crappy cake donut places.)  This was how he wanted to celebrate his well earned victory on his test last Thursday.  We were on the road pretty early.  I knew it was supposed to rain in the morning but we didn't care for the dubious looking clouds. It went from ominous to sheeting rain: It got to 5 ft visibility at one poin...

Hump Day Poll


I am one of those people who is religiously done with their Christmas shopping by November 1st.  I might have a few stocking stuffers to buy but all of the people are bought for and wrapped so I can enjoy the season. 

This year I have lost my religion. 

I have only one person completely done and that's it.  Come September 1st, I want to bake ALL of the things.  I haven't baked one thing.  I don't know what it is about this year if it's all the health stuff with us and family friends but my heart is so not in it yet.

I'm about 20% done right now and I'm not happy about it because we went out this weekend just to window shop for nothing in particular and the jackals are already out and reaffirming why I am forced to shop online.

What about you?  Have you started yet?

  2. I am not done either. I am usually at least done with all the purchasing by this point and I might wait a bit longer to wrap presents. I still can't believe it's November to be honest. Felt like yesterday was July.

  3. You mean Christmas is happening again? Already? I have a few small things I've picked up throughout the year. I need to pull out my "stash" soon and figure out what I have and then get ideas for what I still need.

  4. My family draws names and we won't do that until Thanksgiving. Bummer too cause it would be fun to shop for unique items during travels.

  5. I'm actually pretty far along. The hubs and I aren't exchanging much because we did a lot this summer between the windows and door and the TV's, so I just have a few gift cards to get him and a few clothing items to add to the few I've gotten him. So not tons to wrap. I'm just about done with friends other than some gift cards and some random things. So overall I'd say I'm about 70% done. Wrapping will be done by the end of the month, and then it's just waiting for Santa to swing by with the reindeer to whisk the presents to their new homes. =o)

  6. I have bought one present for my boyfriend's son and I have set my budget for each person on my list. Otherwise I don't have much except for some stocking stuffers for my mother. I'm a little further behind than normal, but not too bad. We don't normally exchange wish lists until later this month, so I don't feel too bad about it. I don't think too much about it until after Remembrance Day.
