  1. I haven't started shopping either. I do this every year and every year I say I won't do it again next year.

  2. I love that you included your dogs in your last answer. Here I am, surrounded by my feline family, and I forgot to mention them!

  3. I totally agree with your #5 and #7. The commercialism is the worst part of the holiday. It is so sad. It wasn't like this when we were kids.
