"I REALLY don't want to go"

I hear that. I'm going to have to eventually go to Walmart. I need to get some tape and some more wrapping paper, bird feed and a few groceries. I had to go out this morning and buy mattresses. I have a bunk bed in the spare bedroom, queen size bottom and regular size top, but no mattresses. I figured Tyler and Dawn would want to share a room, even though they wouldn't have to. He doesn't get to see nearly enough of her either. Anyway, I got that done and got a tree. That's all getting delivered later this afternoon. I called Hastings. They have 4 LOTR gift sets coming in on Tuesday and I can go reserve it with a $5 deposit, so I should have that covered. I think I can skip the mall, unless Dawn takes a notion that she wants to go while she's here. We will be in Little Rock again the Tuesday before Christmas.

I use credit cards, but very rarely when shopping on the net. I like PayPal and most every business online has an account.

I was squeamish about opening a financial account on the net, but in five years I have had no problems at all. I just transfer funds needed from my checking account to PayPal. It takes about 3-4 business days for the transaction. Then, I can pay the seller for the merchandise. It is all absolutely free to me. Of course, I don't transfer funds until needed because PayPal does charge if you want to empty your funds and have a check mailed to you.
