Only 40 days!

Did you know that there are only 40 days until Christmas?! Can I freak out yet? Actually, I won't be, I hope. :)

This pay day I'm going to start Christmas shopping! I remember the days when I used to be done by October 1. It seems as I get older, the closer to Christmas I get. I'm going to start making my lists, and get a few things knocked off. I have a few ideas for the hard to get people on my list. :) It's not going to be a big, extravagant Christmas this year, but I'm fine with that. Low key is good. :)

But before Christmas is Thanksgiving. Since my workplace is closed on the day after Thanksgiving, I'm debating about heading up north on Wednesday after work and spending a long Thanksgiving weekend up there. It's so tempting. I may not be able to do shopping on the day after Thanksgiving, but the more I think about it, the more fine I am with that. With Grandpa passing this year, I feel the need to be by my family. I don't know if that is normal or odd.

What are your plans for the holidays? Have you started on Christmas shopping yet? What are some of your favorite, cheap/homemade gifts that you have either received or given?

Christmas?

Call me crazy but I've been working on Christmas presents for a while now!   I have the nieces and nephews almost done.   Started one of my little sisters.  That's all so far.

I'm already in the Christmas mood, I love this feeling.   Call me crazy, but I have Christmas music going right now.

Now I won't listen to music or think about Christmas every day, but I'm enjoying this.  I can't wait to get out and get more gifts.  I have a few specific things that I'm looking for and I'm hoping I can find them.
