I'm feeling a little blue about this Christmas. My only daughter is going to be 18 on New Year's Eve, and I'm feeling a little sad thinking this is going to be her "last childhood Christmas".  Tonight I've been poking around the internet looking for a "toy" Christmas present that will give us both a good laugh. I've told you before about my daughter's love affair with Jamba Juice

It is a balmy 30 degrees in Chicago today, 20 with the wind chill. I'd love to be out saving big on Christmas gifts, but it's just too cold. So, here I sit perusing Amazon for bargains that don't require me to take off my warm fuzzy slippers! I'll try to post a few good ones today. This caught my eye for my nephews who love LEGOS, which are usually very pricey. Right now you can get the 405

It's no secret that I love free. Normally, when we talk about free it is in the financial sense. But, I also love the free that comes from living in the United States of America. But, that freedom does come at a price. Every day the men and women of our Armed Forces and their families pay the price for our freedom.
