Are You Done With Your Christmas Shopping?

ACK!!!

This is the second slowest shopping season I've ever done, and the pressure is really on!! I have ONE person taken care of, and one small present for someone else. I have to really get my ho-ho-ho on tomorrow, or it's going to be coal in my stocking!!

The worst season I ever had, I was terribly ill during December. On Christmas Eve, I had a doctor's appointment, and he wanted to put me in the hospital. On the way home, I made my ex stop at a mega-store and said, "Give me one hour." With a little bit of "Woo Hoo" medication and a lot of imagination, I did it - in less than the hour allowed! I never want to have to go through that again - especially since that's probably when I first damaged my immune system!

I'm done, except for one set of gift certificates from quiznos. (What do you get the poor grad student out on his own for the first time ever.... food money of course!) However, the gifts I have to mail to Colorado are not wrapped or put in a mailable box yet. I'm going to have to pay lots of money to ups or fed ex them quickly so that they get to Colorado on time! I'm so happy to be back in the States and be able to USE either of those companies!

I have bought all but one of the presents... But that one I need to wait to buy until I am in California (my mother-in-law wants See's Candy for christmas)... I also need to finish putting together one present since it includes printing pictures off my computer... I also got presents in the mail last week that needed to go out... This is the first Christmas I have ever been this on top of stuff...

I think I've got all of ya'll beat... I still haven't started shopping.

At least I only have 3 people to shop for.... My mom gets herself presents, then tells me that's what I'm getting her for Christmas.... Fine with me, at least I know she'll like it. Haha.
