I'm one of those people who love to get their Christmas shopping done early. That way I can actually enjoy the holiday season once December hits. I try to be done with all my shopping by Black Friday.
Well this year I have outdone myself. As of today, November 14, I am FINISHED with my shopping!!!! Jealous? lol. I can't believe I'm done already. I even bought all my cards for everyone. I'm so ahead of the game, I'm considering wrapping all my presents next weekend! But then I may feel kinda strange. lol.
The reason why I'm done so early is because with my brother and his family living in India, I had to mail out their gifts this week, in order to ensure they would have everything by Christmas. Once I got started, I just finished with everyone else.
I am really looking forward to the holidays. I love love Thanksgiving (my favorite holiday), and I can't wait for Christmas this year. I have cousins flying in from California that I haven't seen in at least 4 years! We are having a mini family reunion. We usually have around 20 people to celebrate Christmas with, this year will be over 30! It's going to be great!
Last night I even watched Elf on TV. I love that movie and it really got me into the holiday spirit!
When do you try to get your holiday shopping done?
On a quest to find out who I really am, and using this as a tool and motivation to go after it.

The kind of shopping I HATE
I love buying presents for people. I like getting creative and getting something I know they will love.
In a few weeks I have to go to a bridal shower and for some reason, I can't get excited about getting a gift.
I looked at her registry and everything on there seemed so.... lame.
Maybe it's because I'm no where near that part of my life, but buying pots and pans as a gift seems so lame. Also the thought of watching her open up all these things and me pretending to get excited about them also makes me want to stab myself. lol.
I kinda want to be that one person that goes off the registry and buys something a little kinky. I already bought a gift, and it's nice but it just feels like it's not enough. Even though it cost a pretty penny, it still seems... I don't know. Lacking.
I've never felt so unsure about a gift before. Even though she specifically asked for this, I still feel like it's stupid or she won't like it.
Have any of you felt this way before about getting a present?
