In the whirlwind rush to pack the car and the cat in pouring down rain on Sunday en route to my parents’ house, I managed to overlook a few Christmas presents for my parents and left them in Virginia. Funny enough, I had this constant nagging feeling that all of our presents weren’t wrapped as I was wrapping them. I chalked it up to the stuff that hadn’t been delivered from Amazon (which hopefully arrive by 8 pm tonight). We were watching “Downton Abbey” with the parentals (this should shock no one), and I realized that I forgot the Downton Abbey themed gift I bought for my mother (keeping it vague in case she reads this before I get it to her). Then I remembered the two books I bought for my dad were in the same box. Fail. So this Christmas elf didn’t quite succeed in her eternal goal of not forgetting things.
Anyone else leave presents behind?

I LOVE Downton Abbey! Can’t wait for season 4 to start. Who is your favorite character? What is your favorite story line? Merry Christmas!

We forgot our biggest present for my parents an hour after we started driving, so we turned around and added a whole lot of time to the trip. Unfortunately it is not a gift you can send in the mail since it was a neon sign. Whoops.
