Hate crowds so no Black Fridays for me. I do my shopping early and this year..on line rules. Got the same deals and better... I got 6 yards of flannel for 1.79 a yard. yeah me! Not sending hard cards or making cookies and candy. We don't really need them and they just add pounds. I got two gradbabies this past year. Treating myself to a first birthday party in Tampa with Maverick, and will be taking care of Miss Lily starting in January. God is great and I am blessed! Decorations are at a minimum... neices think I am a great aunt. They got lots of decorations and I simplified my life. Merry Christmas to all and a blessed New Year.
