Finished, wrapping today, and then kick back in front of the fire and begin consuming the holiday beverages.

The kids are all taken care of and packages are wrapped and under the tree, thanks to the faithful and lovely Mrs. Meister.

Just gotta pick up a couple things for Mrs. Meister and we're all set.  Maybe a Lexus or somethin'

All the shopping is done, except for the Mrs.  We agreed that we wouldn't spend alot on each other. Just do a token gift.  Still got most of the wrapping left to do.  It's a cold snowy day here, so it's sounds like a time to do stuff like this around the house.  Maybe by tomorrow I'll be able to say I'm finished.

Thank God !  Feels good that someone else does the same as the Meisters.

I get really sick of those "...he went to Jarods!" and "His and Hers gift-wrapped Lexus" commercials.

It just seems stupid to spend money on stuff when we buy what we really want for ourselves during the year.  A couple of years we've bought something for "the house" or something we both wanted.

Jdogs Better Half, you gotta tell us what you got J. Howz 'bout a clue?
Since UR a better half, what do U think 'bout the present I got my wife?

I'm playing it safe this year, since I'm still somewhat of a newlywed.



One of the guys here suggested that I buy my wife a Prada wallet
and fill the credit card slots with gift cards...one for Macy*s spa, one for Starbucks, one for i-Tunes, Barnes and Nobles...you get the idea...stuff she can treat herself to throughout the year.
