Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and if you didn't know already - shops are closed at 12pm sharp on the 24th.
So if you haven't finished your Christmas shopping (shops are closed from 12pm on the 24th and do not re-open until the 27th) or your grocery shopping...you may want to go out today.
It'll be busy, the line ups will be ridiculously long....but at least you won't go starving for 3 days.
Santa comes tomorrow evening to visit your kids (if you've arranged it with a friend, family member or paid someone)...and typically the big dinner is tomorrow!
(And if you're religious you go to Midnight Mass or Church Christmas Day).
We're having our wonderful friends from Brazil (well, they live down the road from us) over for dinner tomorrow and we're having a "big" Christmas dinner. We decided to get a good chunk of our groceries yesterday and I'm glad we did. Other people had similar ideas (especially those travelling), so we quickly went downtown just to get the meat (better cuts and more choices) and got the vegetables etc. at the stores closer our home! (Less to carry/push in a stroller).
Then Christmas Day - we plan on opening gifts then...(I really should be working on finishing one! EEK!) and having a smaller dinner (but still considered big to some I guess....roast chicken and veggies).
Of course the guys plan on playing lots of video games....ha.
Happy Holidays - wherever you are and however you celebrate! (In Finnish: Hyv�� Joulua!)
All the best in 2012!
