Originally Posted By ilvdland I luckily have 2 dentist appointments on Tuesday and Wednesday in Downtown Seattle, so at that time I can FINALLY finish my shopping.

Originally Posted By Lisann22 I think we will be done decorating today. I stayed up till 3am finishing up. Nothing like decorating up to the final weekend. Aye yi yi. It'll be worth it though we have a lot of company coming over between Christmas and New Year.

Originally Posted By ilvdland It's funny how the pressure of how many days left until Christmas sparks my creativity for gifts. All of a sudden, I know exactly what I'm getting for my mom and my boss, the last 2 people I have to shop for. I am going to be so flippin' excited when I'm done, you have NO idea!! Oh, and when all of the Christmas cards go half-price the day after, I'm going to send out all the cards I forgot to send. So if perhaps you were expecting one from me and didn't get one, you may still see one!!! LOL!! Good luck to everyone in finishing their holiday tasks!!!
