So I went Christmas shopping last night. And, I went again this morning. And, as addictive as it can be...I think I'm done. As in, don't want to buy anything else, if I don't have it for you by now, you're not getting it. I mean, that's probably a lie, but I'm so shopped out! I can definitely see the appeal of shopping online! I've always especially loved shopping during the holiday season because of that extra buzz of excitement in the air, that rush to find the perfect gift. But, after waiting in crazy long lines, tugging at my coat as I overheated, rubbing my aching shoulder where my purse has been hanging on for dear life, and trudging to 3 stores to find the gift I was looking for, I just want to go home and put my pjs on.
I have, however, gotten the majority of my shopping done, which I'm quite pleased about. I tend to get this rush that I want to get it all done in one shot, which may be why I'm so exhausted by the end of my shopping trip. I keep heading from store to store, as yet another idea pops into my head. I think in the future a list would be wise...keep the shopping to minimum so I don't get frustrated, or more importantly, overspend. I have to say though, there's a certain thrill I get when I collect all the bags from my shopping expedition. What is it with walking with several shopping bags that makes me hold my head a little higher? It's like I feel like I've accomplished a major task and done it well. I've said it before and I'll say it again, why can't I get this high over exercise?
