I spent my day off yesterday shopping for gifts. I paced myself and managed to avoid crowds, as it was a week day. I did have to drive 15 miles out of my way for one gift and it was at the end of my "spree", but aside from that I had a relaxed and happy day. I might even be able to say, I felt a twinge of the Christmas Spirit. :-) Look who I found on my way home though. That's ok.... I think that added to my happy day. Mr Grinch wasn't looking so mean.
