Christmas Shopping

Usually I have all my Christmas shopping or at least 95% of it done before Thanksgiving. I haven't even started this year and what's worse is I have a pretty good idea what I'm going to get most people. I just haven't sat down at my computer and done the research to get it ordered. Crazy?! Some people are making it rather difficult on us. The whole, well we don't care what you get us. I am going to buy something for them because that's just the way it is. And, honestly, I do want to buy them something. It's not out of obligation. It's genuine, and now I have to try to figure it out and make them happy without any help from them. I love Amazon wish lists and I think everyone should have one for them, their kids, and their dog if their dog gets presents. You know what I mean? My money is better spent when you have 10 ideas I can choose from and they are all something you like. It's still kind of a surprise because you don't know which of the 10 things it is...right? So help out your friends and family. Get an Amazon Wish List or put together a wish list of some kind and give it to them so they don't have to play the guessing game. You'll be happier, they'll be happier and you won't have to fight the crowds after the holidays to return it.
