Well, today was busy if not terribly productive. In fact, it actually resulted in several more projects. I slept late and left the house around 11:45. I started by hitting Goodwill, then proceeded to Michael's, Towne East Mall, K-Mart, Towne West Mall, Pier 1, the other Michael's, Hobby Lobby, Best Buy and Petco. All this on top of Barnes & Noble, the other Barnes and Noble, QuikTrip, Wal-Mart and Borders on Sunday. Most of the stores were about halfway through putting Christmas up - I was like a kid in a candy store! I've been a bit bored with my Christmas tree for the past couple of years. . . it's Martha Stewart from top to bottom, so it looks great, but is rather bland. This year, instead of the huge bow that I use as a tree topper, I found a giant snowman head (it's better than it sounds). For the body of the tree, I'm switching mostly to silver. My tree is huge and sits on a rotating base (it's awesome), so I bought a lot of mirrored things to hide in the interior of the tree - that way, when it spins, the lights will sparkle even more!

That's it for tonight. . . tomorrow, it's back to work!
