Christmas shopping

    I am almost done with my Christmas shopping (just a few knickknacks). I would have been done on the 12 but the carrier wouldn't leave the last two packages across the gate because we don't have numbers displayed on our house. Yes, I live on one of the few roads that doesn't have mailboxes down it. We have a bunch of mailboxes along the highway, instead. Which is crazy because it's dangerous getting the mail like that, our boxes have been wiped out a couple of times, and the road in front of our house is paved it's just a dead end. I'm always amazed when Mom and I go looking at properties and we'll see these places down long dirt roads, sometimes dead ends, and they will have mailboxes at their driveways. Crazy. We'll be painting our address within the next few days, though.

    Anyway, we went to the post office to pick up the packages. Fortunately when we got there the line wasn't so bad. It got worse after we got there, though. I have a feeling it's only going to get worse as the week wears on.   
  
  I ordered all the books (the ones she's getting me too, so the order would cost enough for free shipping from Barns and Noble.) online on Cyber Monday. It was nerve whacking waiting for the them, but being able to track them really helped. If it hadn't been for online tracking I wouldn't have know one of them was in. For some reason we didn't get the notice.   
   I'm going to slowly go though the items in my shop and raise the cost of shipping on all my items $0.95 to include a tracking number. Except for the Colorful Boucle Cowls, I've already raised their shipping.
