So it is that time of year where most of us go a bit bonkers trying to figure out what to get people as gifts. This year Jenn and I made ourselves have a $ limit. I think for me the true meaning of Christmas is being healthy and happy and spending lots of time with the people that matter to me the most.
Over the years I have come to appreciate all the love, kindness, and loyalty that family and friends have given me. So this year Jenn and I are having a holiday party with all of our friends and another holiday party with all of my family.
Jenn and I set a cash limit to those we give gifts to $10. Thats it, we work far to hard to blow it and get into deby around the holidays. We are also making cookies and fudge for people and I will be writing all my friends and family nice letters. I got that idea from Oprah. In thinking about things after tht show I realized some of the nicest things I can remember getting are nicely filled out cards, and homeade gifts, and sitting down to a meal with those I love.
This is a tradition we are setting, good beliefs and what it means to give and recieve means alot to both Jenn and I.
