    For the first time ever, my family and I have agreed on getting one thing each for about $20 and then have a raffle. The previous years, it took all evening to unwrap presents and there wasn't much time to sit around and just chat. After dinner, we're dancing around the Christmas tree, which also takes time. So I'm quite happy with this arrangement.

    Now, I just have to get something that anyone would like. We're all past fifty. Any ideas?

    Well if it's all family, maybe a favorite family photo in a nice frame? Or maybe a pic of a favorite vacation spot, framed?? That's a tough one....

    Oh yeah I'm done too. I've been "done" for a while now lol but I keep seeing great deals for things that would make a great gift lol. My siblings and I don't buy for each other and we don't buy for aunts and uncles and everyone like that but we do buy for all the kids so I have about 10 kids to shop for lol. but a lot of the gifts I got for B1G1 free and some were completely paid for by coupons so they were essentially free lol.

    Hannah is going to have to train for the marathon that will be Christmas morning with all the stuff I scored LOL and I hardly paid anything for all of it.




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.
