Recuperation journey 2.0: O-n-l-i-n-e shopping

Random thoughts on the fast-approaching holiday season. 

I've surprised myself this year because I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping. 
I have never been so efficient!

The good news is I'm getting better at organization. 
The down side of getting most of your shopping done the week before Thanksgiving is you have a long wait before you can see the joy on the recipient's face when he or she opens your gift. At least I hope it's joy!
When you buy something around Dec. 22-23 it's a short amount of time to wait until you can give the present to your friend or family member. 
I certainly don't like to rush time - it goes fast enough on its own. But it feels good knowing I have most of the work in the bag.
