Day 113/365 It’s time to go, put-and-take presents

-->
     This morning my husband organized all the toys, games, books, pictures, mugs, you name it, that he accumulated from the put-and-take and saved for Christmas presents. He’s organized them in piles according to child and grandchild. Sounds strange to say child when really I’m taking out our two grown children who, duh, are the parents of our grandchildren. 




 
   
















 Later today he will wrap them in Christmas paper from the dump, box them, and they will be ready for distribution. 


    We haven’t bought one Christmas present this year. I don’t mean to brag. It just feels right for us at this time in our life, and it fits into my meager sustainability project. Plus, these are great presents; just what we would buy if our gift-buying budget were big enough and if we happened to like going to the mall.
