Christmas shopping…

Today I took a day off from work not to go on vacation, not to go to the doctor, not even to just be lazy. Today I took off a day of work to go Christmas shopping. In all honesty, I had to take one more PTO day before the end of the year or I would loose it. But still, I used this precious day of freedom to mingle among the hundreds of other crazy Christmas shoppers.

Since I will be flying home for Christmas, I had to keep my gifts small, practical, and packable. I could have gone the easy way out and bought everyone gift cards, but I’m better than that! I was on a mission to get everyone a personal and perfect gift that would easily fit under the seat in front of me or into the overhead bins. This was going to be fun!

So, sure enough, a couple of hours later, with my debit card smoking, I was actually done with my shopping! I walked out of the mall pretty proud of myself for such a successful day. Shopping on a weekday was such a smart move! I will be remembering this in the years to come! Now I just have to wrap all these perfect gifts… Maybe I should take another PTO…
