Three days before Christmas Eve and I’m finally done working and doing my Christmas gift shopping instead. Except that I’m not; I’m buying things for myself instead. After an hour of shopping I had bought a wooden kitchen spoon (for myself) and a serving platter (for myself) and no gifts. When I was done and went home, I was also carrying several books (for myself) and 9 pairs of tights (for myself). And luckily some Christmas gifts, too. I just haven’t had any time for such frivolities as buying clothes for many weeks now.
