And I am kinda dreading it..But i so want to get it done early. I don't want to wait to far into Dec. to do it. I am hoping that the store (Wal-Mart) won't be to busy tonight. I plan to leave the house between 9 and 9:30 pm. Right after the kids go to bed. Hubby will be home so if they wake up he will be here.
Wish me luck that I don't get in trouble at Wal-Art or that I don't come home broke....
i have to do the same thing and i am NOT looking forward to it . i hate shopping. i think the biggest thing is being in large crowds. i can feel my blood pressure go up and i start getting really ****y. i prefer going to walmart after midnight, but the roads have been icing up early and i dont want to be driving on them so i guess i have no choice but to brave the crowds. lol
None of that for me this year. Everyone's getting an e-card, period. I'm paying down my Master Card debt, and getting as close as I can to buying a house. My new landlord says he will keep my rent down for one year. I have lived here 25 years, the house was sold last week. It is a 2 bedroom house with a back yard. These are renting here in Calif. for $1500. to $2500 a month. Until I talked to the man, I was preparing to sell 2 of my 4 dogs, put the old cat to sleep, and move into a trailer park. Now I have a year to get out of debt, and attempt to parley that mobile home into a small house. Houses in my area start around $400,000.

I plan on finishing buying for Kaitlyn on Wednesday. Then I plan on buying the rest around trhe 15th. And yeah Rebel, the discount is pretty good. I already spent my 20% on one of Kaitlyns gifts.
And thats great Kitty that the new owner is allowing you to stay there for a year. You should be able to get a lot taken care of between now and then. You should move here to Wichita Falls. Nice houses start out at 75 thousand here. You could buy a mansion here for 400 thousand. LOL!!!
we bought our mobile for 26,000. its a three bedroom, two full baths, living room and family room. vinyl siding, thermal windows and its 1660 sqaure feet. so between our lot rent and our house payment we pay 670 per month. cant beat that. the park is in the woods and quiet. we love it here. quinn was wanting to put it on property, but i like having a few neighbors around.
When me and Brad go out to eat at our mom and pop resturant we always go to, I always leave a 5 dollar tip. Our bill is usually 18 bucks. But when Kaitlyn is with us and she is loud I leave about 8 bucks.....
Well I made it through shopping the other night. I left around 9:30 and Wal-Mart was not that busy. I got my Gameboy and put it on lay-away till Thursday. And then spent 150.00 on gifts for the boys and the hubby. So all in all not to bad.
quinn wants the new xbox 160. i am NOT paying 400 for one. ridiculous. i told him if he waits a few months they will only be around 200. the girls want clothes of course. their closets are full but of course they are teens so they never think they have enough. i never seem to get them what they like so i will probably just give them gift certificates. i hate shopping !
