Santa and his sled are on a mission...

December 7, 2015 10:26am CST
Poor 'Santa, he is getting old and tired and running out of ideas. No not the 'real' Santa, my Santa, my husband. He went out shopping for me this morning, came home, played with the dog and now he's off again. He said he is on a roll and might as well keep going. He said I have it easy and I do! I can shop online, he can't. He has never touched a computer and this isn't the time to learn! So now I have more free time - too bad I used all my energy yesterday cleaning the kitchen floor! I guess I'll just spend more time here until Santa gets back. Photo: pixabay.com/en/christmas-santa-claus-1070830/

Are you getting excited about what you might receive? And where do you think he will hide your gift? Oh, just read below. It's already under the tree. Don't snoop. It's really horrible knowing what you're getting for Christmas.

@AbbyGreenhill When I was a kid I found my present - a book - and read it before Christmas. You only got one gift in those days. It was a dreadful Christmas. I've never gone looking since.

When he came in, did he have a huge box with him?

I didn't see, but the things are wrapped and under the tree...I'll have to snoop later when he's taking a shower.

@Marilynda1225 I won't snoop, the dog would probably tell on me if I did.

He knows me well enough that I don't have to worry about not liking something! Thanks for the Christmas greetings. The same to you and yours.

I don't, he doens't either - we only shop for each other....and since we already have everything we need it's not a big deal.

He always does a good job since he knows what NOT to buy me.

It sounds like your husband feels better now. My husband never goes shopping for me.

Yesterday he was feeling pretty much back to normal, still coughs but not as much or as hard. He doesn't buy you gifts?

I will admit, I picked out one item and ordered it myself and that is a 'from him and the dog'....He could have bought one in a store, but I got a much better price from Amazon.
