I don't know what I did, but somehow I posted that last blog entry without checking it. I found out you cant go back and edit once you have posted here though. I don't know I f I had something else to say, oh wait, I did. here it is.
Speaking of Christmas, this is what I was writing when I realised I had somehow posted the last blog. When do you start your christmas shopping? And do you feel obligated to purchase for every living relative, whether you even see them or not? I don't. I only buy, or do things for those I want to. I don't think this is selfish either. It is getting a little ridiculous having to buy something for every niece, nephew, and cousin along with your own children. And when do you start shopping? I used to shop early and often. it was fun for me. But now that my kids are out of state, that fun is sorta gone. Now I can get away with ordering online and letting them wrap their own gifts. they are given instructions to act surprised when they open the gifts. That is my son in Vancouver. My baby comes home still.
But because he has to watch the weight in his suitcase, I have to watch what I get him. I will probably just get him and his GFgift cards. that wont put too much weigh in the suitcase and they can then just go get what they want. I have no idea about any other gifts.
Ok, that is all of what I wanted to say. Now don't forget you have to read the blog right after this one too, cus it was supposed to be the first part of this.
Did you find your edit button Lisa? You can edit your entries after you post them just like on 360. You will have to try and highlight your button at the bottom of you blog box because the type is hidden in your trees. *giggle*. I don't usually shop early for Christmas but I always say to myself that I'm going to. But time gets away from me so easily these days. I have bought one present this year and have it hidden in my poor motor blown van.
ReplyDeleteMy Christmas shopping is done and This is the first time I have ever got it done so early. they are even wrapped and under the tree. the only people I buy gifts for are Brandon, Chris and Zac.
ReplyDeleteI think gift cards are perfect for older or grown children. that way they can get exactly what they want!
