It’s the day after turkey and I was up at 4:30 am so I could get a few (LOL) good deals. I picked up ABS at 5:15 am and off we went to get Reagan the coveted Polar Express Train at Linens and Things.

Here are some of the places we went on our shopping adventure. I can’t list what we purchased since my gifts were for my bloggers. I can tell you my Expedition was packed to the gills. There are a few suprises for Kid’s ROCK too!

big lots       

    

 Apparently, I had not done enough shopping so I finished up online. We will see what all I can come up with this year. Maybe a few suprises or maybe not.

Now I am tired and need a nap. Shopping is hard work! ZZZZZzzzzz.

Abs wrote of her struggles and then posted about her needs with Imagine Christmas. Well, here it is after 1:00 am and I am still awake. I keep thinking about what Kid’s ROCK needs for Imagine …..

  • a few more artificial trees-prelit sure would be nice
  • a bunch of colorful balls you know the cheap kind-for all those trees
  • 1000 white thumb tacks-not push pins who knew they would be so hard to find
  • a painter or 2 to help with shading who is not already helping Abs don’t want to increase her stress level
  • Some 10 inch wide green ribbon would settle for 6 inch wide

Here is what I do have

  • 952 secrets
  • 5 more secrets that I need the painters to help me with
  • 40 Children’s volunteers the weekend of Imagine
  • 5 artificial trees
  • 72 Christmas balls
  • foam
  • Spray snow
  • Christmas lights
  • Wrapped boxes
  • more boxes
  • Fishing line
  • Spray paint
  • Etc.
