My wealthiest Great Aunt (i'm talking millionaire) gave everyone a bag of nuts.

Do you think she was trying to be ironic?!

Oh, one of my ex's brothers gave everyone, both kids, the ex and his wife, 15 pairs of animals each from Heifer International. Now that is one cool gift.

We got money from family, as usual. They have always known that this is a big winner, in terms of a gift!

The amount is unimportant, in that they know I/we will buy something we really want.

For my wife, she provided a (reasonable) list. All items were within reach. Cannot go wrong there.

So brakes and tires being in the same category makes them the same thing?

Maybe we're just working from a different language...or maybe you need someone with you when you go to an auto mechanic.

You're just over-reactionary weird.

I got one can and two can openers, used the first to play with that one can, but now have to go out and buy a second can of something so I can play with the second one.

My wife loves her new mop and dust pan.

My sister in law gave me like, a lifetime worth of tea... and she knows I don't drink tea.

I hope your aunt is at least spending money on herself.

Hahaha...maybe she will leave her inheritance to a kitteh shelter.

is it weird that my sister-in-law already bought some gifts for next Christmas? :lol:

after we were finished opening presents christmas day, my grandma would start writing down presents for next year, its a little odd, yes lol.

Some people live for such moments, i.e. xmas.

I wonder if they like celebrating so much why wait for just that day?

Buy and give presents (if you must, hee hee) and make dinner for a huge gathering at any date of the year.

Party on !!!

Ha!

It's there and there have been a few inquiries.

Do you have a master plan in mind?
