Good Afternoon and thanks for getting us started, Jean. Hope you enjoy lunch with your friend and the drive and crowds are not too bad.
I don't have any real issues with holiday shopping for others since I send gift cards or cash to almost everyone, and there are not that many people on my list. I bought a small decoration for my buddy at the senior lunch program.
Buying for myself is a problem since I keep being tempted by various offerings. Since I am not a pet owner, the gift will just be from me to me if I find something nice. This morning I mailed off estimated taxes (early, but I wanted to get that done), two checks for memberships, and a small contribution. I know I could probably have just done most of this on-line, but somehow feel like doing checks from time-to-time. I did make two on-line contributions on "Giving Tuesday" and both requested extra money to pay for the credit card charges they needed to pay.
Nice graphic meallen. I'm always amazed at how many graphics you come up with, and how appropriate they are.
Hi Bernie. Hope your lights are up, and the tree goes okay. I know that trees can be heavy to bring up from the basement or down from the attic, so I hope you didn't;/don't have any issues with that task. Enjoy your pizza.
It seems very chilly in the house this morning, at least in the "office". I had the space heater on for a while, but I'm trying to tough it out now. It is a cool day here, and we may have rain again tonight. Nothing like the cold weather elsewhere, but not my favorite.
My laundry is going, and I have started to gather things for my weekly financial review. I'll be going to an OLLI Party this afternoon, which should be nice.
Waves to all of our posters and readers. Hope everyone has a nice day!
Hugs,
Linda
