I am ready for Christmas!

Halfcan · 12-10-2005, 11:45 PM

Me and the kids-mostly them, got the tree up and the house decorated. Usually do it after Thanksgiving-but running late. Haven't started shopping yet though.

What about you guys?

**Bugeater** · 12-10-2005, 11:47 PM

No shopping done, tree is up but not decorated. I'm right on schedule.

I'd participate in this thread but I think you're just trying to steal the limelight from jjchieffan, and that's just mean.

DTLB58 · 12-10-2005, 11:55 PM

The tree and all the decorations (inside and out) have been up since Thanksgiving weekend.

The wife just finished the shopping today

Now we can just sit back and enjoy the rest of the holiday season.

I can barely afford to get presents for everyone. I have my brothers present and that is it. Im a broke college student. Hopefully I can get a paycheck before X-mas or family will have to wait for presents from me.

I'm going to write a letter to my family explaining I had to buy the X-BOX 360 therefor I can not afford to buy anyone a gift. I think they'll understand just how important the 360 is..........

agreed

lol useing a Christmas thread to steal the limelight-now that is cold.

No I posted because it has been a lot of fun, and I was not in the Christmas mood yet. My kids took the lights I was going to put up on the outside, and decorated the inside of the house. It is a bit white trashy and over the top-but they are having a blast. The inside of the house looks like a casino now.

I'm ready for a Chiefs WIN tomorrow and the week after, and the week after that. Early Christmas presents are the best!!!!

But, this year we'll be at the Chiefs game... so, I guess we'll shop on the 23rd or something.

slacker.

Halfcan · 12-11-2005, 12:14 AM

That is when I shop too-no crowds, lots of cheap stuff left over nobody wanted-but the game is messing things up. 23rd for me as well.

My son pulled out the George Brett ornament and said "Look it says my name Brett and it has a five on there for me because I am 5" Dang that made my whole day.

Salvation Army maybe? Not dissing the place...sometimes there are steals to be found.

Last year Target and Walmart were pretty easy to get in and out of, but Toys R Us sucked, that place is a joke-nothing ever has prices on it.

It's easier to get people to buy things if they don't know how much it costs till their at the register and their kid will flip out into a tantrum in front of the whole store if they don't buy it.......
