The Noel cards are not thematic except for the message I personally wrote on it, and not rigid: photo paper and glossy. Weird. Super expensive but very cute.

2$ a card.

I got a nice photo of my fairy late godmother anne mooney  made into a small magnet for the fridge.

I now see her every day. Much appreciated to have received this photo after I requested it form her eldest child.

And I got a cheap cute mug for hubby for his 60th. I will also buy him a poetry collection nice from somewhere.

And he has flannel sheets for Noel , one of his gift bought already.

I also bought us a new vinyl tablecloth with mushrooms again on it.

That is a heck of a lot of spending in a month. On top of 300$for my clothes. I used our savings to pay for the photo lab: 86$. And 100$ for the sheet sets for hubby's Noel and the tablecloth together with shiping and taxes. Almost 500$ spent on something else than books in te last month. No more spending for another month, until Noel.
