Uh oh, I'm running out of time

I didn't order from the catalogs like I said I would. Now I'm frantic, trying to get my Christmas shopping done. Because we have a big extended family, and because I don't like to give tacky gifts that people won't like or use, I usually start shopping early to avoid frustration and angst.

To top it off, B&N's website no longer has a book in stock that I planned to order. I had it in my shopping cart for two days but kept trying to make sure I had everything I needed before I hit the order button. Now, the item isn't availble for a few weeks.

Somehow, I really thought I could get everything done. There's still time...
