    Wink Stick a fork in me, I'm done!

    Done shopping. Done wrapping. Done done done!!
    I still have stuff being shipped, but that is already gift wrapped (to keep the snoopers who would open the mail from seeing). Now I can start planning my holiday baking. I've already decided on two kinds of biscotti along with the usual holiday chip cookies, gumdrop cookies, sugar cookies, and peanut blossoms.

    Wow! Great job!!! I'm getting there. I finished my mom last night. I'm finishing my sister tomorrow. We only need a few more things for each of our children and then their stockings which I think I will do tomorrow or Monday. DH is getting my brother in law's tomorrow. Then we have my nieces & nephews left. I think that's it. We don't buy for a lot of people.

    Except for the three grandboys who live close by, everyone else wants gift cards, so I have very little to wrap. I'm buying and wrapping the boy's toys to go under the tree, and giving their mom a gift card for each of them to buy their clothes. Hubby is picking oldest dd up a George Foreman grill today, and I will wrap that, and I still have some stocking stuffers and the holiday food to buy. All in all, it's been a stress-free Christmas.

    Well yesterday I picked up what I had to get at my moms for dh and got those wrapped and under the tree. So we are done!! Shopping and wrapping. I do want to get dh a few things for his stocking because as of right now he has nothing in his stocking. I always get him some instant lottery tickets, he wants a new wallet so will look for one of those and then he is getting $100 cash so if I get the wallet I will put the $100 in it. I want to get him a pair of silky boxers also or pj pants for his stocking but that is it.

    I am glad to be done except for those little things which won't take much time to get.

    I have all my baking in order and just need to get a few things at the store next week but not a lot of things I have most everything else already. I am making fudge, cookies, peanut brittle, carmel popcorn and I think that is about it.

    Hope everyone else gets all there holiday shopping done and wrapping to. Good luck!!
