Well we are sneaking up on thanksgiving and shortly after that will be christmas. Thankfully this year I have already gotten most of my holiday shopping done and dont have to struggle to much. I still have a few things that I need to obtain for people but for the most part I am done. The last few items are just kinda fillers. And every year I like to have a few "oh crap I forgot about" presents.
This year its going to be a homemade sugar scrub. I found some amazing ideas on Pinterest and they are not budget breaking. For the last few years I have made homemade/handmade gifts for my friends and family. Typically its jewelry since I seem to have so many women friends and very little to no male friends, its just a easy and simple gift to give.
Growing up christmas was one of my favorite times of year (outside of Halloween). But as I have grown I find that I hate christmas more and more. Not the idea of christmas but just the over all aspect of it. I love the lights, the smell, the color, the warmth of christmas, just not the commercialization of it (unless im on the receiving end of it LOL jk).
I am really on the fence about what I want this year, as I have been asked by several people already. Im actually thinking along the lines of practicality vs over all want. Like I have been thinking about more "mature" items like new pots and pans, a new cutting board, a bed comforter, and things like that. While the kid in me is screaming "I want a Nintendo Wii U, and a new iPod, and a blue-ray player". Now dont get me wrong I still want the Wii and the Blu-ray player im just not sure if I want it for christmas?
So right now Im just really in limbo about the whole season and everything else. My sister actually told me to compile a list and to arrange it by price lowest to highest lol. So I may just do that and add on there my "mature" gifts and my kiddy gifts.
