Since I spent half the weekend browsing my computer and Christmas shopping (got most of it done too!), it occurred to me that I should get my own Christmas list together. That way when people ask me what I want, I’ll be able to have a better response than my usual “uhhhh, I don’t know.”
To that end, I spent a couple of hours on Amazon.com today. Do you realize that Amazon has basically every product on the planet available through their site? You can get anything. Well, maybe not a pony, but I don’t know how they’d ship that anyway. Not only that, but you can make Wish Lists for yourself and your family members so that as your are poking around, you can just select whose list you want to save an item to, and it will attach it to the right person. Then you can share the list with friends or family members who keep asking you what you want for Christmas.
For your own personal shopping, you can also create Gift Lists for the people you are buying for and keep all your ideas organized. Sooooo nice! These only show up on your account, so no one else can see them.
Anyway, I have put up Wish Lists for both me and George on the Shubinesque.com website menu (and no, I’m not expecting a Roomba. I just have it there to remind myself that I want one someday…). And here are the links in case turning your eyes to the right is going to cause some sort of brain hemorrhage.
Okay, time for all your lists now (**Mike and Pop Shubin, cough cough**). Actually, I have almost everyone else done, but we still need those.
Merry post-Thanksgiving, start-of-Christmas season! I am now going to go crawl into bed and watch an ancient episode of X-Files (which holds up pretty well until they whip out their prehistoric cell phones or start talking about what was then cutting edge technology) while waiting for my Hubby to extricate himself from the clutches of his computer and come to bed. Hmmm, news report says snow in the hills and ice maybe. I wonder if that’s us. We’re hills. Guess I’ll go look outside. Good night!
