Complaint No. XVICMII

I finished most of my Christmas shopping.

I still have to find a xxxxxxx my brother wants, a xxxxxxx to go with the xxxxxxxxxx I got my sister, and a few xxxxxxx for my xxxxxxxx.

We're doing Christmas on Sunday, when Zoe gets back. :)

Earlier in the shopping season, I wandered into TJMaxx, and happened upon a few great things for holiday gifts. And... bought a few things for myself. There was a beauty of a box there for 10 bucks, and I collect boxes, so I added to the collection. And there was a perfectly perfect clock for my kitchen for 5 bucks.

FIVE BUCKS???

I picked a spot in my kitchen, jammed a nail into the wall, popped a battery into my treasure and hung 'er up and let 'er tick away.

It was a few days later when I realized why the thing was only $5.



I'm not so good with Roman numerals, but I had to laugh when I saw the IIII.

I won't be finishing my Christmas shopping at TJMaxx.
