fast year. 1 ve even surprised
myself .
1 bought a new winter coat
before the nasty weather
began. but I'm still putting off
replacjng those boots that
didn't seem warm enough last
year.
A quick check of Christmas.
cards and wrapping paper
left from last year show I'll
probably have enough, to do
this yeal. If someone receives
a present with no wrapping
paper covering the bottom of
the box. they'll just. have to
realize it's what's inside
that's important.
Over the past few weeks. I
developed a list of gift ideas
by simply listening to the
hints that_ people dropped:
Some people give hints ac-
cidentally; others drop them
intentionally.
I began picking up a gift
now and again way back in

extremely early), they have
been ordered c.o.d., which_
means .the crunch is yet to
come.
' Oh well. complain though I
do; I can tolerate winter. ( I
don't have much choice).
And, I always look forward to
Christmas - a very, special
time of year. -Being prepared
ahead of time makes the
season even more enjoyable.
But I haven't changed that
much in a year.` I know I'll.
