Have you gotten your Christmas Tree yet? This year, we decided to forgo the usual real tree we buy, and get an artificial one.

They say that this year, shopping sales gains will be the weakest in five years- but if you ventured out of your home to visit the shops today, you wouldn’t know it.

Me, I’ve been shopping online (of course!), checking out all the amazing Black Friday sales to be had. Naturally, I’ll be blogging about all my Thanksgiving weekend loot- but not before we hit Cyber Monday!

It’s 41 days to Christmas, and decorating is in full swing here at home (we actually started the day after Halloween, but that’s just us).
Take this as a warning that nearly all my posts from hereon will be Holiday and/or Christmas related- because I’m such a sucker for Christmas, commercialism and all.
But seriously, just look at this Nightmare Before Christmas Jack Skellington Resin Desk Lamp! How can you resist? It’s on sale for $45 over at our Amazon shop, is made of resin, and is a wonderful addition to any Christmas decoration collection.
If you prefer something a little more, um, subtle- the same company makes a Nightmare Before Christmas Tiffany Style Touch Lamp:
Look closer. Isn’t that fun? What better time than Christmas to embrace your inner kitsch?
