Less than 60 days!!!

I can't believe there are only 58 days left until Christmas!!! Only 3 days till Halloween! Well, for us it's a little more confusing than that really. 3 days till Halloween, but only 2 days till trick-or-treat, which doesn't really make sense to me. The town I work in has trick-or-treat on Friday, the town we trick-or-treat in has it on Thurs. Anyway, I think I'm a little off subject. It seems like it was just the 4th of July!

I have already started my Christmas shopping. Actually, I started a long time ago. I have a plastic bin almost full of gifts for Tink. There are only a few more things I'm going to pick up for her this year. I also have my nephews done and the cousin on JP's side that Tink exchanges names with every year. JP calls me crazy for shopping so far ahead. I like to call it resourseful, or thrifty, anything but crazy. I love bargain shopping and if I see something on clearance that would make a great Christmas gift I buy it and put it away. I'm saving him money, how can this be crazy??!!

I've already started buying things for Tink for Easter. Shhhhh.

I think it is great that you shop so far ahead. I've been trying to do this more often. It does save money because you don't wind up buying overpriced things at the last minute, etc.

I have already done some shopping too. Hey if it is on sale why not get it, sometimes though I forget where I hide stuff!!!

Fairmont is having trick or treating on thursday but we are on friday too....

Ugh.....no not a count down to Christmas or Christmas shopping! My youngest birthday is a month before Christmas so I always feel I can't start shopping until we get past her special day!!!!
