I can’t believe how late we are with our Christmas present shopping. I’ve really put the screws to my kids for ideas of things they want…I mean we have some good ideas tucked away, but we need some help since both my kids are teenagers and their wants are locked deeply inside their “my parents just don’t get me,” brains. I was able to get my son to deliver a wish list last night, and to be honest I was REALLY excited. Remember my hope that I could do much of my shopping online? EVERYTHING on his list would need to be ordered online. Looks like I’ll be buttoning up shopping for my son later tonight, from my home office chair.
Just try to stop me from fist pumping…….

Haha I was the worst this year at giving people ideas of things I want. I’ve been pretty busy and honestly put it on the backburner – my parents were not amused! The funny thing is we can easily think of ideas for them!
Thanks for including Erin’s post this week! Heading over to read the Club Thrifty post now.
I saw the best facebook meme for me the other day: What do you mean I’m hard to shop for? you can find a running store, can’t you?
I haven’t started Christmas shopping at all. There is no snow on the ground around here – a weird thing by this point in December – and I think that has something to do with it. The other factor is that I feel spent out by our renovations, and I just don’t feel excited about shopping. Thank you for including my post Travis! What a nice surprise : )
December 21st and STILL no snow……I’m officially protesting!
