Um... no :o I've hardly started...
we are almost done but we had to wait until payday this week to finish up.
I am NOT looking forward to going to the stores this weekend. YIKES
I didn't start yet. Me and my sister are spending $50 on each other, so we are off to the mall on Friday. We will also be buying my mother an Ipod Shuffle, my dad a hess truck, and we don't even know what to get my brother yet! This is all confusing. :( I don't know about getting gifts for friends this year, my summer job money is down to $500 :eek: I had $1200 before...I spend too much, plus I don't know if they are getting me anything. We might all have a party this year with a grab bag but I don't know they didn't even plan it yet, so I'm not sure.
I'm also planning on giving the shelter a Christmas donation but I'm a teen strapped for money at the moment, so I may hold off on that tille later in the year when I get my job back this summer. I hate seasonal jobs!
Yep I'm done.

(laughing right out loud) No, I'm not, and in fact I just found out about one more person I need to have a gift ready for.
I am glad to say that I am. I started early November and picked up the last of it yesterday. :D
I just bought a few toys for John's grandchildren. I give my niece's kids money. Oh, and I better remember where I hid my brother's gift..thanks for the reminder. Since money's been tight, and everyone's health is so precarious, I'm giving everyone else hugs and kisses.
I have one person I'm shopping for, my nephew, and I still have no idea what to get a 20 year old brat, lol.
Mom and dad are getting home made items (which is what they requested).
Mom is getting home made jellies made of pomegranate, mango, apricot, and quince.
Dad is getting home made mustards that I found recipes for.
I just have to buy all the supplies that I don't have yet, which is mostly everything, lol. I want everything fresh, so mom's will be done next week. Dad's mustards need to age a bit, so I'm going to go shopping for those ingredients tomorrow if the weather permits.
I really don't buy many gifts any more so it's pretty easy.:) I send a check to both of my brothers so they can buy my nieces and nephews gifts. I buy my co-worker a little something and I usually buy my parents a gift certificate because they really don't need anything and are hard to buy for. I still need to buy my parents a gift certificate and then I'll be done. I may also end up buying my cats something even though they really don't need any more toys.
All the cheques are written and put in the envelopes but I have two more gifts to buy for wee ones that don't know what cash is yet. I find it harder and harder to shop for kids each year since they mostly have everything.
I did it!! I decided to take the 2 Little People sets and put them away for her 2nd birthday, and I went and got the Nativity set today! :D She is going to love it because she always wants to see our nativity set and point out the different figurines. So now I am officially done!! (I am just waiting on 1 thing in the mail) :DQuote:

Now I just have to buy my parents a gift certificate and I'll be finished.:)Quote:
