Christmas Shopping ranting

cover them with Cayenne pepper so he doesn't eat them though.

I love Cayenne pepper!

I think I've finally hit the halfway point with my shopping.

I've also realized that I need to make the last of my online purchases by tomorrow, otherwise they may not arrive in time for Christmas.

However, I decided to get ambitious and *make* several presents this year, and that's been eating my writing time for the last two months, because I bit off way more than I had time to chew.

Well, thank you for taking the time! The gift is awesome (I won't disclose it's nature because I'm not sure if all recepients have received their gifts). It makes me happy every time I look at it. I'm taking it with me to California to remind me of how wonderful you are, MsFish!

I haven't even thought about Christmas presents yet this year, which is very strange for me. I have no money to shop for anyone, and I don't have time to knit this year like I did last year. Most of my Christmas presents last year were made while riding the T to and from school/work/internship. I suppose I can still do some cute things for some people, but I think I exhausted the scarf route last year, and don't have enough yarn to make matching hats (which only take a fraction of the time).

Honestly, I just would rather Christmas pass by this year unnoticed. It's not like there's snow on the ground--the grass is green. And having been sick for the last month in one form or another, perhaps I'm the one who should have the Grinch for an avatar.  

If my car does work well enough for me to visit my friend for Christmas, I should make her something, but I don't think I can finish in two weeks. Perhaps I'll find the money for some cute inexpensive gifts after my next payday.

I feel the exact same way, It'd simplify everything if they just moved Christmas back a month this year, I'll only be able to get decent gifts for everyone if I shop on practically the day before Christmas.

There's always the dollar store!

Okay, I think I finished my Christmas shopping today.  

My gifts aren't perfect fits, but they'll do.

There's always the dollar store!

I'm not really sure where to find one round here, honestly. I should, though, if for no other reason than to get my brother something. Of course, I can't do that till I have at least a dollar to my name.

[The Jade Knight]

I'd even send you a dollar via paypal or something if it were the only way you could get your brother a present.

I didn't really get anyone really nice gifts, but I have enough to give all my siblings $10 DVDs and the like.

what? you want to get her two lawyers?
the problem is that paypalling a dollar will leave her with all of.... like, 50 cents from it after paypal takes their cut.

75% of my shopping was done on the 15th yay!

[Mad Dr Jeffe]

Shopping done !
Wrapping done !
Woot!
Now alls I got to do is unwrap stuff...

and all bought after the 15th!

I'm almost done with my wrapping except for one present that one of my older brothers was sending me to wrap. It's a gift for our mom that he couldn't get gift wrapped. Unfortunately, it was suppose to arrive at my pllace today and has yet to show.
