So, remember when I was lamenting that I wasn’t able to find any fall stuff to decorate my front porch? I scored big time last week at Michael’s, who still had some fall stuff left at a nice 70% discount! Woot! So my porch is now decorated, but you’re gonna have to wait to see…
Only 16 days until Christmas, people! 16 days. Are you ready? I’m not. But I’ll get there. It’s just a tad bit more of a juggling act this year since I have all the Christmas presents stashed in our storage unit to save on space here in the basement, and will need to do some…
