I have one thing that I need to buy in Park Slope tomorrow, and then I am officially done with the Christmas shopping. For some reason, an inner voice has been pushing me to get the shopping done early this year, and so I did. I would’ve liked for that inner voice to direct me to some cash so I didn’t have to use my credit card, but I will take what I can get. The shopping, it is (pretty damned close to) done. Now I just need to wrap everything.
And finish the Christmas knitting. Gah.

Know how you feel. Christmas is coming fast this year.
Awesome for you! Good luck with all the wrapping. If your cats are anything like mine, you’ll have more help than you need.
Grace~There is a difference between “help” and “driving me batshit crazy so that you are lucky *you* aren’t the one getting taped in the box so I have a moment’s peace, cat.”
Vince~Very much faster than I would like it to. I love Christmas, but being the one who does the prep in this house takes a lot out of me.
I started my Christmas shopping yesterday. On the other hand, I’m closer to finished with my Christmas knitting than you are.
