... and I still can't find one free minute to myself with all the Christmas rushing and running that has to be done each and every day leading up to Saturday morning. Unbelievable...
Still, the bulk of our shopping for the kids seems done, and while it isn't the prodigious great heap of gifts that these children have had in past years (when I was actually in some kind of funds)... its a damn good haul for them, if you ask me. All seem to have gotten what they really, really wanted (even Jacob... who's been very, very good the last few days). That is the problem with kids as they get older... the items they really really want are bigger ticket items that (in a down economy such as ours) necessitate a smaller gift budget than that afforded to kids younger than 10. None the less, all seems well... I know Liz wishes there could be more, but we've done damn good with what we had.
Now, if we can just get the mortgage caught up...
