I have finally finished writing and stamping my Christmas Cards. I have some to deliver to my choir members on Thursday at choir practice.
We are hoping to fly to Denver to see dh's kids and their families on Saturday. But, dh will have a long awaited series of tests on Friday which will define whether or not he will get some surgery that he has been waiting for for almost a year. If the tests go well, we have no idea whether he'll be able to travel this weekend or not.
He was talking to his daughter about a gift suggestion we had for her husband. She e-mailed back to make an alternate suggestion. She gave us two ideas both of which we cannot afford. I puts us in a rather iffy situation. If we spend that amount on him then, I guess she is expecting an equal-valued gift and then what about the 2 kids and dh's son? I-yi-yi!
I try to purchase gifts through-out the year that I get on sale but of are good quality. This year was so screwed up that we are down to the last minute of buying things. We were thinking of gift cards but nowhere near the value of what she is suggesting. Good thing we're only going for 4 days. We usually take them all out for supper as well.
Does anyone know of anyone who needs a wedding quick??? I need a little more income!!!!
