- when hubby and I have our yearly Christmas shopping day. Or should I say evening. It will have to be tuned down a bit this year, but there will be gifts for all. Not that I have any ideas. Not even for the kids.
We used to be able to give them sports gifts – or at least outdoor things, as they were all heavily into scouting when they were younger. Knives, sleeping bags, practical clothing… One year, we bought them all cross country skis. OK. At least they have proper skis if they ever fancy a trip out in the great white outdoors…
This year, they’re all so broke, and they’ve all got plans involving expenses, so I think they’d love to get money for Christmas. That hasn’t been an option in the past, but we may have to make an exception this year. Which means, of course, that hubbys and my shopping trip will be a short one, just shopping for the little kiddies. Maybe we can have a tête à tête dinner instead…
