  • Ugh, no!! I have quite a bit more to do. Today is my last day of work before the holidays, though, so my mom and I are planning to go shopping tomorrow to try and finish up both of our lists.

  • YES!!! I actually just finished wrapping last night! Ok well I lied a little.  FI is going in on a present for his parents - but I feel like they do so much for us that I want to get them a little something extra.  But I'm just going to get them a gift certificate to their fav resturant and a bottle of wine.

    I tell you I was SOOOO happy to have finished wrapping last night - it was a nightmare.  The cat was attacking the paper all of my presents look like crap.  But at least they are wrapped :)

  • I'm done shopping for our Christmas with FIs family, but Christmas with my family isn't until January so I've put that off. I still need to wrap, though, but I figure I'll do that Friday night with a nice glass of wine in hand :)

    Still here and still fabulous!

  • I have just a couple small things left to get - one more thing for my mom, one more thing for my dad, and I need to exchange a couple things I bought for something new. I plan on doing all of this today! Then, the wrapping will begin tonight. :)

  • Oh yes! Been done! I HATE battling the malls / shops like the full week prior to Christmas, it's so ridiculous, and too many people. lol
  • Luckily got most of the wrapping & shopping done over the weekend... just need to get a grab bag gift for my extended family party & wrap what's left.  I also have a package that is estimated to arrive tomorrow so I guess I definitely can't finish by tonight!  Every year I vow to get all of my shopping done early and every year I fail miserably.  Maybe next year, without the wedding planning, I can actually keep my promise to myself :)

  • Nope. I got FI his main gift (hiding in a closet) and something small (under the tree). I was going to get one of our e-pics printed and framed for his parents and mine. Not done yet. There are no other presents under our tree so not sure what (if anything) my other half has up his sleeve. I do know that we are waiting until the after Christmas sales to buy some clothes/shoes, etc for March.....Hanukkah lasts until next Tues so he has time :)

  • edited December 2011
    Yes!  I have been done for a while.  I started my christmas shopping the day after thanksgiving and finished most of it up two weeks ago and I got my brothers gift card yesterday so I am completely finished

    ETA: Everything is wrapped as well.  I love wrapping presents so I wrap them as soon as I get them.  I always buy wrapping paper after christmas so I have enough paper to wrap presents for years to come lol.
  • I am done as well.  Just need to pick up a few gift cards which should be easy and that's all folks!

  • I am! My FMIL did just notify me that we are having two little girls over on that day (that is a whole other story...they celebrate Hannakuh though so their parents don't mind if they come to our house?) Anyways, she bought them puzzles or something.

    I wrapped everything last night and now I wait...I had to hide FI's present because he already found one! I am the worst liar too so when he guessed it I couldn't say no, total bummer!

  • Yep!! All wrapped and ready to go! :) Just got to work out the delivery schedule. it is tough as an adult with divorced parents, and 3 grown siblings with kids...then there's FI's family. Oh geesh :/
  • Yup!  We're poor right now so my gift list was baiscally "Give what you can get for free" and anyone I couldn't get something for free for I put a $10 budget on.  And I got some really nice stuff for everything thanks to my review blog!  Like, I got my nephew his first bike (I cannot wait to see his face when he sees it!), I got my Mom some religious books I know she'll love, I got my Mom and sister spa kits... all for free!!  :)  I only had to spend money on my Dad and Brother although most of my Dad's gift will be hand made, as will my Grandma's.  FI and I have a "no gift policy" this year, but even for him I was able to get him a little something.

    I believe in a lot of things. I believe in fresh tennis balls, the healing power of bunnies, and that the novels of Susan Sontag are something I'll never read. In fact, I don't even know who Susan Sontag is. What is she... like... a painter? I believe in Crystal Lite because I believe in ME. I believe in the movies of Val Kilmer, though these days it ain't so easy. I believe in Darren Sproles, the word "dabble", the first season of "Silk Stockings", and big, warm, moist, gooey chocolate chip cookies that melt in your mouth and all over your face.
