I didn’t buy myself anything for Christmas. I was supposed to go and visit my family but there were some things going on that I didn’t want to be a part of so I decided to stay home. I did send my niece some money which she used to buy her daughter a bike. I […]

I guess I shouldn’t brag but I don’t have a lot of shopping to do. My niece is under 2 and her mother and my brother are the only other people that I buy gifts for, and I usually just give them money. That means no long lists with shoes, plus size bridesmaid dresses, and […]

I can’t believe how fast this year is flying. It seems like just last week it was in the 90 degree range. Now today it’s only in the low 60’s and raining. You know it’s only going to go downhill from here as far as the weather goes.
I may as well start getting my holiday […]

I’ve never had to really buy any birthday gifts for children. I usually buy baby shower gifts and that’s all. Since I don’t have any children of my own, I usually don’t get invited to kids’ parties which is fine with me. Now I have a niece and I’ve just received one of the cutest […]

Whew! I was kinda worried that she wouldn’t like it. Teenagers can be finicky and I wasn’t sure what she would think. My friends said that I’m being too accommodating but this phone is a gift and I don’t want to spend my hard earned money and then she not like the phone. That would […]

I’m a little worried because I don’t know if she will like it. It’s a really cute phone though. It’s a touch screen with a camera. Those were her 2 biggest requirements. The phone is small but the screen is large enough to see without squinting. It does not have WiFi but that’s not a […]

Geesh it seems like every other day someone is asking me for a gift. I guess they figure I’m hitting the Cyber Monday deals pretty hard so I can buy something for them. My niece wants a bunch of stuff but I think I settled on a phone for her. My cousin wants some sports […]

Growing up I got almost everything that I asked for. It helped that I didn’t really ask for much, so when there was something specific that I wanted, my family did their best to make it happen. My niece is asking for a bunch of stuff for Christmas. She wants a new phone, a I-Pod […]

Last year I found a bunch of different web sites that were having promotions on their gift cards. Some had percentage off discounts where other sites had a free gift card with a purchase or certain items. It would be cool if I could get a gift card for buying my normal stuff like acne […]

I feel like I’m running a restaurant or a mail order business or something. Everyone is coming to me with a list of stuff that they want me to get them for Christmas. Now it’s my brother’s turn. He want either some Lowa Banff Pro boots or some other similar pair of boots. The only difference is the color. The price […]

I can’t believe I only have 2 more paychecks before Christmas gets here. I actually get paid Christmas day but we’ll get our money on Christmas Eve. This is really here fast. I guess I’ve been so focused on school that I haven’t thought about much else.
I’m really lucky that I don’t have a ton […]
