What's up Next-Christmas and Building a Stockpile.

Hey gang! I wanted to set you up a map for what's coming up in the next few weeks. I will be posting lots of great gift ideas and store specials to help you stay under your Christmas budget. You DO NOT need to spend a ton to have a merry Christmas! One thing we've tried to do this year:  I and the kids try to hunt for someone we can bless  this year.

Now, along with Thanksgiving and posting Christmas deals, I am tenatively planning then end of this month/beginning of next a series on stockpiling food. What to do, how to do it, on any budget, for any reason. Stay tuned!

A quick note- just remember that for many, the 'holidays' are the hardest times of year. Can you have a happier Christmas by mindlessly buying the same toy story toy you bought 10 years ago, but now it has a '3' on it, OR finding that family, mother, or son that is:

going through a divorce,

just lost a child,

in the military, feeling totally alone

AND BLESS THEM. This isn't neccesarily buying a Christmas gift, it might mean 'being there', writing letters, or cooking food. FIND THEM, and LOVE ON THEM.
