I am totally overwhelmed with everything I have going on. Here is a quick, easy 13 for you. Thirteen gifts I will be giving this year:
1. For my Dad the first season of 24.
2. My mother will get the first season of The Closer.
3. Bestest Niece ever is getting a large gift certificate to Border’s.
4. Oldest Niece is getting a large dollar amount. She is a poor college student.
5. My son is getting a new Playstation 2. His blew up a few months ago.
6 & 7. My duaghters are getting alarm clock, CD players.
8. My MIL is getting several gift cards to places she frequents.
9. I made a calender of the grandkids, from Shutterfly, for my parents.
10. So far I have bought my husband some Blueberry tea. I am so stuck with what to do for him! HELP!
11. My SIL is getting a classical CD.
12. I got these cute angel trinket boxes for my daughters.
13. My son will also get an extra x-box control. (He bought his x-box from a friend of his for 20 bucks. Now he has, or will have, P2, X-box, and Gamecube. I am so happy he does not want the Wii or P3!)
The purpose of Thursday Thirteen is to meet new friends and spread some comment love. Go over to all things Thirteen to see who is playing.
Oh it sounds like you have got things pretty well under control. When things get hectic just remember to stop…and breathe!
Great 13 - I played too!
Love love LOVE the Closer!
Sounds like everyone will be happy
Great gift choices!
#9 sounds like a fabulous gift for the grandparents.
I hope things aren’t so overwhelming for you soon!
Happy T13.
Now, will this borders Gift certificate be big like those Publisher Clearing House checks? Now thats large
One of the gifts for my GF is the one that you got for your father, Nancy. I’ve never seen the show but I’ve heard that it’s really good.
Sorry you are overwhelmed. Why is it that the holiday season always does this to people. Well, you have had lots going on in the past few months so I’m sure there is that as well. Hang in there. Hope you can relax some over christmas.
I’ve got an idea for your hubby…does he have any records? There is a turntable invention that plays your old records…and then loads them into computer or iPod!!! How cool is that?
If he doesn’t have any old records…you could go buy him a couple at a second hand store, fo a really good price and then pick up the turntable!!! Men like their toys no?
supercool list of gifts for your kids. they will be decked out huh?
I am so burnt out, Crazed Mom, I am just now feeling like I got rest…I was running around doing about a hundred things and the house was a mess, I even blogged photos of my messy house! Today, I am all fiunished cristmas baking and shopping…and am doing laundry. I feel like million bucks!
Hope you get a good nights sleep soon, try, because it will really be worth it to be refreshed for the holidays.
Is your MIL coming to stay with you? I bet there will be many mixed emotions this holiday season after the loss of you FIL…you take it easy okay?
Here is my list for what it’s worth…a bit about blogging…

#1 I was going to say….first season of 24 what? But then I got it. I just read on someone’s blog giving money is a “one size fits all.”
Yes, but can you see the magic eye art??
You are going to make some people very happy. I hope you all have a great Christmas.
My T13 is up. Hope you will check it out.
WOW! You’ve really got the gift thing under control Wish I did!
Have a happy Thursday!
Those sound like very good gifts! For your dad…hmmm. I really like loungewear at home for myself, so I think others must as well. Some good casual PJs or lounge-about wear would be nice. Happy TT.
Nicely organized.
The calendar of the grandkids sounds nice.
I’m going to go check Shutterfly out.
Thanks so much,
Frances
Great list! I am completely overwhelmed as well. Starting work, two weeks before Christmas is crazy and I should be institutionalized for even considering it, let alone doing it.
