I meant to mention I ad a win today. As you know, I've been hunting for a free size maxi dress for my DILs Christmas present - walked the length and breadth of Bunbury but couldn't find what I wanted. This afternoon I had to drive out to Australind (about 12 k away) for my monthly massage. Afterwards I popped into the Australind Shopping Centre  - just on the offchance - and what did I find there....... 
I couldn't believe my eyes, it was absolutely perfect. So now all my Christmas shopping is done and I am a  very happy little heffalump. 

Lol

That was a lucky find, she ele...and well done on completing your Christmas shopping. I'll probably do mine on Christmas Eve, as usual. I have got a few bits and pieces, but I can't think of a main present for my son.

Thanks She_el and thanks Karen sort of 

 

Good for you Prim.  It's always good to have that job done.  I still haven't put the tree up.  I will probably do it tonight... maybe.

 

Karen, what a horrible feeling.  I once left a whole carton of Coke in the trolley.  Goodness knows how I missed that.

You must feel greatly relieved SheEle. I have only finished shopping for one so far.

 

I am going shopping with my daughter on Sunday and  you all know what that means to me 🙂

 

She is a bit of a bossy boots and wants to come and make sure the goodies I buy for Christmas day are only what is needed so I don't buy too much, as I usually do on the day. But, what is Christmas day without a nibbles board with lots of goodies???

It's terrible isn't it Prim.  I buy so much food just for one day and a lot of it isn't even opened.  I am determined to make everyone eat a fruit mince pie this year since I have bought them.

 

I hope you have a fun day with your daughter 

 

 

Thanks Joono, I will....it is like an early Christmas present 🙂

You'll have a fun shopping day, Prim. Sunday is a good day to go, I think. I hope lol.

Sneak to the shops by yourself on Monday and buy goodies for the platter 🙂

It's weird - I won't be home for Christmas this year and Mr Elephant will be doing the rounds of the kids, so I haven't had to buy any Christmas 'goodies.' I get back on 29th so I guess I'll do a spend-up then for New Year.

LOL Karen, I thought I might go tomorrow and get some before she can talk me out of it LOL

 

I usually deck the sideboard with fruit, nuts and lollies etc. Of course there are always a lot left over but its Christmas and they always eventually get eaten.
