I got the dog DNA test for Miss Moo. Got myself some new Injinji socks, got stuff from Osprey for Boyfriend & Mother. Purchased stuff from local places/small businesses

 
I never saw the point to these, even my son did one, and was like, oh yeah, were white people from Southern Europe? Duhh!

The funniest thing to me about these DNA tests is I think everyone I knew in the South claimed to "have a little Indian in them" or had some uncle who married an Indian back in the day, and my wife's family was "devastated" when people started taking these things and learning they have 0.0% American Indian DNA. - Which I find funny and also it means I have to give Beth Warren a little slack..

 
JK Black Friday haul = x2 pairs of socks and a cheap-o bottle of imitation champagne.  My shopping is done for my secret Santa.

But I might need to buy a Christmas tree tonight since my mom is threatening sending me one through the mail.  She is very distressed that I don't like decorating for the holidays.

 
I don't really want to participate but I bought myself this at the Lowes yesterday..

with 4 cars at the house someone is always filling up tires so now at least they wont leave the hose in the un-designated spot anymore..

We're doing it just for fun.  In my case, we don't know much about history/relatives on my father's side - my sister did one and found some relatives we didn't know we had.

Our neighbor found a half brother she didn't know she had, and after contacting him, the brother realized his mother lied to him about who his father was, LOL.

My grandmother hates that I don't decorate for the holidays. She seriously hoped that when I moved in with Boyfriend, I'd all of a sudden start decorating. Except he dislikes the holidays as much as I do. Much to his dad's wife's dismay lol

You might be able to find a fake tree at a thift store. tbh, i'd get a potted plant and decorate that and then bam, you have a plant year round. 

 
Also ordered a pair of 39" Insignia Smart TV's off Amazon for $159/ea.  I stole Junior's TV for the garage (which did nothing because it wasn't a Smart TV and she didn't have a DTV Genie), and we don't have a TV in the guest bedroom.  This way she can stream Netflix in her room since its all she watches anyways, and guests can watch Netflix/Hulu/Pluto.

As a child whose father is still trying to do this stuff: I will still leave it in the un-designated spot and will not try.

Yeah, my mom was just like 'your apartment is so depressing!  No lights!  Nothing!' and got upset when I said I didn't want to have to deal with storage.  Then she went on a rant how I'm not an atheist and all this other stuff, only to get that miffed silence when I asked if Jesus cared about Christmas lights.

I do have fake trees/palm trees that came with the apartment.  Maybe I will just put lights on them?  Idk.  I saw some trees at Goodwill when I was trolling around for a George Foreman that were kinda cheap.  I mean...I just never feel like decorating?

 
I need to get around to ordering a couple replacements for the race car.

I'm with you.

Gram has a 3300sq ft house. I have a 600 sq ft house and a puppy. A tree will not end well. Plus idgaf about decorating. I haven't put any knick knacks out since I don't care about them and hate dusting. Plus with how hyper this dog can be, stuff would break.

Yeah, if this one tree isn't available at Meijer (I have a 25% off 'holiday' merchandise for today only), I just won't decorate.  I mean, I'm still unpacking from my original move out here, so I really don't want to add more clutter if I'm going to be moving again in less than 3-years.
