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.

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!
