I'm almost done. I made good use of my Borders rewards coupons and did almost all of my shopping there. I just have a few gift cards to pick up, and one gift to return, because after my aunt told me what she bought my cousin, she went and bought something else off the list, so now we have duplicates. Yes, my family sends out actual lists and we try to coordinate by letting each other know what we got/are getting as soon as possible. I had to wait for a paycheck, so I figured that by now, it was safe because she was already done with her shopping.
Now I just have to get "wrapping." We're trying to be a little more environmentally friendly this year, so we're putting most of our gifts into reusable cloth bags that tie with ribbon. I have lots of fabric that I'll never use for projects, so I have to get started making the bags. But I figure if we make a few more each year and keep reusing them, eventually we can get more of our family members using and making them too.
Hey! Where's the waiter with the water for my daughter?
I usually start early, so I'm ready with time to spare. I got everything, but then I thought of something else I'd like to get for someone, so I'm down one present again, but it's easy to find

Just a couple left...its annoying that whilst out shopping for other peoples gifts I always see something I would like and end up thinking ...hmmm if I get that for myself am I gonna have enough to get pressies for everyone else....'cos you know if you don't buy it there and then it won't be there next time you have the money.
