Ever since I can remember, the last two months of the year have always been my favorite. Celebrating with family, eating delicious home cooked meals until you’re about to explode, decorations hung from every place imaginable and of course… the loads of presents both given and received! During those last 60 days of the year, it feels like everyone is full of all sorts of happiness, including me… until of course… I add up the receipts and look at my account balances and see how much I spent!
