Christmas Bargains

Made a trip out to Books-a-Million today for any Christmas sales; they had their Christmas books half-price, but there was nothing I wanted that badly. I did get a Richard Peck book off the bargain table and, since it was buy one bargain book, get the second half price, got the Worst Case Scenario Christmas Survival Book for only $1.50. It should prove amusing, especially to James.

Got some miniature woodpiles for the Christmas village and acid-free tape at Michael's, then went to Walmart. I really love the one in Acworth; they always have enough cashiers and everything is clean and moves briskly. They had everything on our grocery list (and things we needed that weren't there) except for low-carb wheat tortillas. Sigh. I just got low-carb ones to tide us over.

Oh, and I returned my library books...and came out with The Time-Life Book of Christmas!

We've had a few sun break-outs, but it's been mostly cloudy today and it rained with thunder during the night and drizzled when I went out at 10:30. Willow immediately broke out into a salvo of barks at the thunder, and if that hadn't woken me, she certainly did!

Christmas—as well as this week!—has certainly gone by too quickly!
