50 Days til Christmas and this year its on! I am not falling
into my usual routine of buying all the Christmas gifts a week or LESS before
the big day thus throwing away loads of money by not shopping smart & looking for
deals. Today I challenge myself to get organized & shop frequently over the
next few weeks. I plan on taking advantage of a layaway program (most likely
Walmart) for the big present we want to get. ( a playground!! ) I wish I could do it entirely online but I have to go into the store. BOO! To avoid waiting there with a almost 4 year old and 5 month old I will prepare
today and then go in tomorrow while Jax is in school. Checked with hubby in our
weekly family “meeting” and we discussed what we felt was a good budget for our
family for Christmas. He VOWED that this year he will let me know ASAP of what
he wants. Usually he plays the whole “I don’t need anything" card and then a
week before (this is where the LESS comes in) he causally names a few impossible finds
that I could have ordered or located had I had more time. Apparently he
understood my point because today he text me giving me a few ideas! I guess I got his Christmas spirit going, which was perfect because his text reminded me my plan. So I got out my “Christmas App” on my iphone and started planning what we needed to
get! Yay! Only 50 days left. I love playing Santa!
Ho ho ho!
Love-
Corey
