Blogmas 2018 - Day 26 - My Christmas Bucket List Update

To finish up the Christmas season I thought I should post an update of my Christmas 2018 Bucket List and I had planned on doing it as Day 26 of my Blogmas 2018 series. As you can see, I didn't make, so here goes...Day 26 of Blogmas 2018 almost a month late...(and some of you may not agree)...but better late than never! (At least I'm getting caught up!) 😉

(Note: Clicking on highlighted words will link you to posts where you can read more about that subject should you be interested in doing so.)

  1. You accomplished A LOT on your Christmas bucket list. Sadly, I can't even remember if I made one (probably not). Going through all my paper stuff over here.

  2. Thanks, Jean! I can't remember if you posted one, either. Have fun sorting through your paper stuff. I'm still just trying to figure things out on this end. Kind of in a lull right now, I guess. LOL! Have a great day! <3

  3. I really didn't have a bucket list, but that's a great idea. Especially the gifting of a needy child or even the mail carrier. I may just have to write one next Christmas. Thanks for the great idea!

  4. You're welcome, Kristina! And, yes, they were great ideas, but, did you notice, I failed to do, either. :( Perhaps next year! :) Blessings, my friend! Hope you're having a wonderful day! <3
