Good. That ought to keep you warm. We got ourselves a new TV. The old one was wearing out.

Alice..
It's good once in awhile to treat ourselves, the Shearling coat will keep me warm and your new TV will keep you entertained..

Joe,
You are so right and we know that we want what we bought ourselves. No worries about geting the wrong thing or the wrong size.
Does anyone else ever do this?

Joe,
I think it is more common than we think.
Just last week Dave's friend came and they went to a woodworking shop. When they got home Dave told me his firend had saved his wife a lot of trouble. he had bought his own Christmas present--a woodworking tool.

Dava and I are super pigs this year.
We used to be so limited we bought for everyone but ourselves. We made up for it this year. Last night we got a loveseat to match our chairs for rec room. It is black leather and we need it to seat our guests on Christmas Eve as we watch Scrooge.

Thanks for that, James. Sometimes grammar is downright incorrect and other times it is downright insulting. Even a five-year-old knows that.

What, buy our own gifts? I've been doing this for years. And I don't really need to wait for a holiday; if I want it, I buy it.

James..
Sometimes when one types, one's hands are ahead of their brains, I find it rude to point out someone's mistakes, that I would never do, ever !

Joe, Shelagh, Alice when buying gifts here is some friendly advice....
Sort the grammer out in that if anyone dare.
