Think Christmas!
My local Border's always has fun stuff for kids marked way, way down. (And, if the rumors of the chain's demise are true, more reductions are in the offing.) Yesterday I bought this book and a diary with a lock for less than $8! And we all know that there will be holiday toy drives to help needy children ... and, with this economy, there will probably be more needy children than ever. So I consider this an investment in the future.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Merry Christmas! :-) It is the most wonderful time of the year. Even when it's in July.
ReplyDeleteGreat way to think and shop ahead!
ReplyDeleteSadly, Borders will be closing. They're liquidating their stores. We just found out that the big one at the Providence Place Mall is slated to go.
