Going Green
....I'm almost completely done with my Christmas shopping!!!!!
husband gets bonuses from work in the form of gift cards. He can pick from a large list of stores so he got them this time from Kmart and we went today armed with those and a list. I only have one more thing to buy for difficult child and need something for my friend's son and my oldest sister. Of course, I also have birthday presents for the same sister and my brother because their bdays are at the beginning of the month but I usually do smaller gifts for that since it's so close to Christmas.
I had to laugh though because it doesn't appear I'm going to be at all surprised Christmas morning as I picked out my gifts today. LOL husband put a Snuggie box in the cart and tried to tell me it was for one of my sisters. I knew better and he fessed up anyway. I need a new coat so one went in the cart and we also grabbed a new crock pot. Kmart had a 6 quart one on sale for 19.99 and I wasn't going to pass it up as the only one I have right now is a 2 quart. But...in the middle of all of this, I had called my step-mom to verify something for one of the kids. I told her about the crockpot deal, mentioned it was in the cart and recived a stern "put it BACK on the shelf".
Oh and for those of you with ipod owning girls....I found the neatest thing! Kmart had zip up hoodies that connect to ipods. There is a cord in one of the pockets that plugs into the ipod and the hoodie drawstrings have ear buds on the ends. The whole thing is washable and it was 15 bucks. It may not be the best thing to wear to school but I still thought it was cool.
I'm pretty proud of myself though. I have the majority done BEFORE the dreaded Black Friday!!!!
