Merry Halloween!

Okay, okay, I don't really want you to spend alot this Christmas. I really and truly don't. So much so that we are putting out our annual offer to not buy us anything for Christmas.

Anyone who is related to us and doesn't want to spend a whole lot of money during the silly season and doesn't mind not receiving anything it return just let us know. We are more than happy to share the experience of saving a few bucks with our nearest and dearest. If you are related to us and insist on buying us something gift cards to Home Depot, Lowes and Target are requested.

As for our friends, we are all broke these days so don't you dare buy* us anything because we won't be buying you anything and if you give us something for Christmas you will make us feel like shit and well, that just ain't a nice thing to do to a friend now is it? We love you all to pieces and the pleasure of your company is all that we require this holiday season.

We will of course be getting gifts for the wee ones in our lives who are under the age of 18 years because frankly, Christmas without presents doesn't make a whole lot of sense to the the Dora and Lego set. It's as if Santa has betrayed them or something.

Now some of you think that mentioning the "C" word before Halloween is downright nasty, premature even, but I did it this time last year and have the blog post to prove it HERE. I thought about it early, planned accordingly, and we made all our purchases online over Veteran's Day weekend and had ourselves a relatively stress free December. There's alot going on in our lives right now which will all be explained in due time and I am all about having a stress free Christmas this year and I hope you do too. Please consider joining us in a gift free season again this year!

*And don't you dare make us anything either! Yeah, I'm talkin' to you Carrie!
