Good for you! I can honestly say that I generally don't get real concerned about Christmas shopping till about the middle of Dec. And, even when it is finished (and it doesn't take long anymore since our kids are grown and we do not yet have grandchildren), hubby and I generally take a Sat. afternoon and go to the mall and just pick up a few odds and ends and then go out to dinner someplace really nice. It is just fun...not sure I would enjoy that so much if I were really doing serious shopping, though.
