July 1... putting away tip money for those who help us during the year.
also - our family gives treats etc. to each others dogs... it's just a cute funny thing we do. So I will buy some things for this

I think there is 182 days until Christmas day.

I have started my Christmas in July prep have been making hats.

[Nancy]

Put some in sav. & have gathered up some blue items for blue themed basket for Jewish holiday gifting. Have ideas on some things to make up for giving. Think I am on the last of the knit hats, on to the crochet dish clothes to make up next.

dear nancy... your generosity is always inspiring. Great job on getting ready for the holidays! I had planned on putting more money aside but dd olders birthday cost more than I thought. I think I will put a minimal amount away.

I can't afford a painter right now so I have to plan on getting things done before the holidays. 3 season room, bedroom ours.

I made my list for August Holiday shopping:

buy 2 gift cards to victoria secret for dd's for their undergarments -

money for Christmas to be put away again.
Christmas carol tickets order as they have just been released August 1

I might order a night down town early as the hotels have specials now... first order tickets and then hotel and restaurant
