Christmas is Coming and The Goose is Getting Fat...

Yes folks, that terrible time of year is approaching faster than you can say "Thanks Aunt Beatrice for those lovely slipper socks."

I am very likely going to be insanely busy getting my schoolwork done in preparation to graduate (can you believe it?) and we are going to start our holiday shopping early.

We will be following the same gameplan we have in previous years where we only buy gifts for immediate family and the children in our lives. If you are a friend of ours, we love you dearly, but don't buy us ANYTHING (Yeah, I'm talkin' to you Carrie!) because we aren't doing it. Nope. Nuh-uh.

If you happen to be related to me and have received a holiday gift from us in the past feel free to opt out on the holiday thing this year. Let us know if you would like to participate in our "Don't buy us anything and we won't buy you anything" plan.

If you are related to us and you insist on playing Santa and would like suggestions as to what to get us email me for a list. If you know my parents or Ron's parent's and want to drop hints in their ears for us feel free! ;-) Gift certificates to Barnes & Noble, Staples, Officemax, and Amazon.com are always good. Stay away from restaurants, movie theatres and Best Buy... we don't need them.

Merry Halloween Everyone!

I will repost this again as a reminder in the coming weeks.
