Boy, Christmas is really creeping up on us! Only 7 days left. Hope you've done all your shopping. We've had a lot of help from our "Brick & Mortar" friends as well as our internet buddies! Everyone is offering the DEAL OF A LIFETIME! Black Friday, Cyber Monday and now Green Tuesday??? What the heck?
I Remember when, as kids, we would get a Sears toy catalogue. Christmas lists were composed mostly of toys from that catalogue. It really made things simpler for Mom and Dad. One trip to Sears and the shopping was done. All that was left was wrapping the presents. We were happy!!! Simpler times!
