Okay, it was actually my dad’s GMC Jimmy, but Ford Ranger parses better. Took most of the day off AWAY from the computer. I really need to give my body a break from staying hunched over the keyboard 18 hours a day. Okay, well, that’s an exaggeration, but I was gone for the meat of the day.
Hit the Christmas Tree Shop up in Nashua, the LL Bean Outlet and Target. Three stores where I have to leave my credit cards home. Oh wait, I don’t have any credit cards anymore. Damn, this would have been a great day to load up.
I did get a bunch of stuff at the Christmas Tree Shop in the “present packaging” area. A gorgeous gift box that I refuse to give away now that I have it, some wrapping paper and gift bags. I love gift bags. I forgot to buy tissue paper while I was there but that’s not a big deal. It’s usually pretty cheap at Brooks. Now I just need to get some things to put IN the gift bags. I know it ticks some people off that I’m starting ‘early’ but when you’re stretching dollars, it’s easier to stretch them if you start early.
But now I’m home and trying to catch up on my mail, etc. I still have 1200 words to write to make today’s quota. Catch ya later.
