All I want for Christmas is the question of the day . . . it's just around the corner . . . and to be honest with you I have no idea what I would like . . . also it seems every year it gets harder and harder to find something special for those I have to buy gifts for . . . oh well off to the stores . . . in Buffalo, USA . . . maybe I wll see something that inspires me . . .

The annual Buffalo, New York shopping trip was a blast . . . there were so many Canadians in Buffalo shopping it was just crazy . . . with the exchange being around $1.10 Cdn for $! US dollar everyone is cross border shopping . . . I got a new winter parka (down filled) with a fur trimmed hood . . . at a price too hard to resist . . . and lots of neat things for some of my Christmas gifts . . . plus a few tasteful (unecessary but warranted ) items for the house for the holiday season . . .
