4 stores and $150 later, I arrive home completely exhausted and overwhelmed. I had one night only – tonight – to get my Christmas shopping for my extended family. Every other year we celebrate Christmas at Thanksgiving because we’re all together. And this is the year. We’re heading up to Missouri (in the nice big [...]

In honor of the new look, and [...]
