Got an ugly x-mas sweater at the thrift shop but did not fit so it is going back with the donations. I have re started saving for the Christmas / holiday acct. No longer doing coins it takes to much time and weights a ton at time to turn em in.

Well done d Nancy

Dh and I talked about saving for Christmas again - eeek time to start for that again - I let the holiday account go to the wayside - it is frightening but d Nancy ur saving for the holidays was my inspiration and a God send for last years Christmas

W this year having so many large dollar expenses- I think it will b difficult ;)

May 1 I already have an idea for one person so I will buy this item then
it is always a joy to be here with you!

I'm still trying work on Christmas handmades every 25th, but I give myself a break and move that to another date if it doesn't work out. I think if I didn't allow that, I would get discouraged!
