Boxing Day

And I have survived Christmas, I have gained 2 pounds, I'm not too upset with this as I was starting to get a bit too thin. Present weight is now 123.6 pounds.
I don't think I could manage the Boxing Day sales, I don't like shopping during the best of times but there are a few things I have noticed that would be handy around the house, like extra cutlery (used some plastic forks for my family Xmas dinner because my cutlery set is only for 6) and I could also use some more pudding bowls. I saw a cutlery set similar to my own at the warehouse, so I am definitely considering it.
I bought a doll to go to a child with little, Kmart had a "wishing tree" and I got her in to the shop on Saturday (the 23rd of December), I was going to put the Doll in the Countdown box but they had already sent theirs away. The lady at the Kmart counter said "thank you very much" and I was happy just to get the little doll in in time for Christmas. My sorrow to joy quickly turned to sorrow again when I put the doll under the "Wishing tree" to see that on the 23rd of December in a middle to upper class area my little doll was only one of about 6 presents. I hope the child who got the little doll likes her.
