That’s awesome inthekitty. Do you hand wash those?

They're dishwasher safe.


Lol at C's merry-go-round induced vomit fest. I'm sorry, that had to be gross. The merry-go-round was my favorite as a kid. We'd get it spinning so fast kids would fly off. Probably why we don't have any around here anymore.

guster I love Cobra Kai. Mindless fun. The third season comes out next month.

Negative to wrapping. When I was a kid stockings were always fair game to dig into before my mom woke up. So when I was up at 5 I at least had something to tide me over. We also normally just got candy though and not too many trinkets in our stockings.

Every year I look forward to how everyone runs the holidays in their houses and what it was like for them growing up.
Stockings are dead last in our house.

Same! My mom wrapped "good" things and left things like candy unwrapped. I tend to do the same.

My family used to play Skip Bo for money. If there was a family gathering you needed to remember to bring your change. $1 buy in and everyone put in a dime when you reached 12. You could actually walk away with quite a bit of money.

Neat! We may have to try that

Candle, lyson wipes, hand sanitizer, lotion, fancy chocolate and a gift card. In a cute basket/bag. Basket for jack because I drop him off. Bag for Matthew because bus.

I cleaned the whole house this morning, sorted all the laundry and got it going. Cleaned the garage and started on presents. We meal prepped for the week and once the kids are asleep ill wrap more.

I’m doing Amazon gift cards so we can email them since we are remote and will be until who knows when.

So I ended up doing
Starbucks gift card
A tub of Lysol wipes
Foaming hand soap
Hot cocoa mix
Hershey Santas
Latex gloves
Candy cane
Toilet paper roll
No bake cookie mix

I basically did a bigger version of what I did for my coworkers including the poem. I just wanted to make sure I didn’t do anything too crazy. it’s the last week of school so I want L to bring it in on Wednesday. E will still go to DC a few days next week but I thought to just do both at the same time.

Virtual so sending a gift card via email. Thinking Ulta since she listed it as somewhere she likes to shop.

[trtlcrzy]

I’m going to do gift cards for the teachers because I’m too lazy for anything else. Probably one to a local running store for H’s teacher and target for both of S’s. Maybe I’ll throw in a small thing of candy too, idk.

I bought target gc’s back when they did the sale... still waiting on those. Hope they’re here before the kids break for the holidays! 😐
