Knock Knock | Santa's Here

That's what I said as I knocked on each door tonight.

Sitting here thinking, I feel pretty good about my days work. Well, I would hardly call it work. But I did get a lot done.

Even though we will be spending another day finishing up our Christmas shopping tomorrow or Thursday. Today I was able to deliver a load of gifts tonight to those whom I had already finished shopping for. And it felt good. My husband was a great little helper also! Mostly the good feelings came from getting to see those people I hadn't saw in like forever! Life is just super busy and many reasons are there to keep us from visiting as much as we like.


I believe I will put that in my New Years Resolutions for 2011, to visit family & friends more often!

Closing the Weekend Out

Ahhh. I have had a full day. So doing a little quick post tonight.


Yesterday was sooo slow here. That's the reason I had so much time on my hands to post alot here. My husband had to work, so he only had a one day weekend and that was today. So we done alot of running all day long, trying to fit as much as we could.


Then when we finally got home this evening, I spent about an hour and a half leaf blowing the driveway. Then the driveway turned to the side yard. Then, of course, I did the front yard, etc. Well, anyways I am happy it is done, as I love a well maintained yard. And pretty soon I'll be decorating for Christmas and won't need to bother with the leaves then. Of course, unless more fall or blow all over again. As our yard is huge.


I am missing the auction that we regularly go to tonight, (Sunday.) Just because we've literally ran outta run-around time. lol. I have alot to do to get ready for the week ahead tonight.


I did however, find some great deals today out shopping. I was estatic to find a stone crock bowl at the Peddlers Mall for $1.25! I think they left off a number somewhere. lol. But I was way happy to get it. Then we went to a flea market and found all kinds of goodies. One booth was loaded with all types of new, gift items. So I ended up with three bags just from her. I will use alot of them for small Christmas gifts.


And now, here it is 6:27pm, so I need to go check my emails and get my online activities taken care of. On my way now to the Comments Club posts! :-)


Did you have a busy or relaxing weekend?

Are you a Re-gifter?

ReGifting Pictures, Images and PhotosI have never ever in my life re-gifted an item..............andgotten caught! lol


But I am not alone, according to Marginal Revolution, 28% of those surveyed admitted that they do in fact "recycle gifts."


I found a cool website called Regiftable. It has awesome stories which I will post a few links to in the near future. For now, if you are in a hurry, check them out.


Do you re-gift items? And if so, have you ever been caught?
