The Holiday Countdown

By
Real Estate Agent

I finally completed my Christmas shopping this morning, and it's even all wrapped!  Having that off the holiday task list, acted as catalyst for my dog, Kodi Bear and me, to put on our reindeer antlers and celebrate!  I hope you are all having a wonderful Monday, and enjoying the holidays.  It’s a mere 8 days until Santa arrives!

Myrl,

Only amateurs do their Christmas shopping before the 24th. Plenty of time, and 7/11 is open 24/7 ;-)

Hi Myrl,

So glad you are done as I am only about halfway done. But I will be done in the next few days. Working on decorating the tree today and part of tomorrow too. Happy Holidays and I love the reindeer ears!

I love this picture, Myrl! So cute! I have not finished my shopping, and there is not one wrapped present under the tree yet. I am hoping to catch up tomorrow so I can enjoy the final days before Santa arrives. Happy Christmas!

Donna - When I got up this morning, I wa on a mission to get the shopping done.  Now, I can kick back a little because the pressure is off!

Richard - When I was young and naive, I put of Christmas shopping until Christmas Eve (after 12:00 noon).  I was so stressed out at the end of it, I swore I'd never do it again.  My family is so large now, that I wouldn't dare dally getting it done.

Kristin - The reindeer antlers are one of the more "serious" decorations this year:-)

Rose - I never seem to be able to relax with Christmas, until I get the shopping done.  Once completed, the holiday spirit quickly follows.

William - I think that waiting until the last minute is in the male DNA.  I know several guys that are like that.

Hi Myrl, What a wonderful photo. You and Kodi Bear actually look good with antlers. But watch out for the hunters, you don't want to get bagged,  :-)

Alexandra - Isn't it a great feeling when that task is accomplished.  When I finished wrapping the final present, it was like this huge spirit of Christmas finally arrived, and infused my mind.

William - Both Kodi Bear and I were born that way. . .Similar to Lady Gaga's song.  Had I known we would be, I would have asked the gods for a different shade of green for my antlers, however. . .LOL

Myrl --- My goodness! You and Kodi Bear look marvelous in your reindeer antlers. I think Santa is going to be very good to both of you! Your blue eyes twinkle in that photograph!

Kodi Bear must be a true comfort and joy year round. What a beautiful dog! Again, that photo is stunning! It would make an excellent Christmas Card!

I'm glad you got your shopping done and now it's time to enjoy the season.

I just love your picture, Myrl, and Kodi Bear is so cute. I haven't done any shopping yet. I'm usually done by Oct. but decided to live dangerously this year ;)
