Well, that was anticlimatic

So I sent off my last payment yesterday. It hasn't posted yet, but I'm declaring that turkey cooked. I thought I would be happier, but things have been stressful at work so I'm sure that's affecting my mood. I did catch myself humming at random times during the day though so I guess that's something. I'll just have to gloat later.

I'm almost done Christmas shopping for my immediate family. I just need something for my sister and 1 more gift for my nephew/godson. He was born Dec. 19th so I need to get him 2 gifts. I bought him a toy, but I'm not sure what to do for his 2nd gift. Another toy? Clothes he'll grow out of in a few months? I'm seriously considering giving him a savings bond, but do I want to be perceived as that stodgy aunt who gives boring gifts? He's only 1 so he doesn't know what stodgy means, but I'll know! I need to think about this some more.

Once that's done I'll just have my cousins

and their kids to shop for, but that's not hard. Age appropriate? Check. On the wish list? Check. In my price target? Check. No agonizing involved. One thing I am watching out for is my tendency to buy something for myself when I'm shopping for someone else. So far I've been able to curb this urge, but it's tough! It's easier to avoid this when I'm browsing online, but browsing in a brick and mortar store is a battle. I hope I stay strong.
