One week to go!

December 18th, 2007 at 03:54 pm

Just one week until it is christmas day. Since joining this forum, I find I am not the only one cutting down on christmas. Many of you do not spend a lot of money on gifts. I use to, but I have stopped that over the years.
My dh and I do exchange gifts, but they are just little things. I do send checks to my granddaughters so they can buy what they want.
I am going to give my three favorite waitresses, $50 each this week. They take such good care of us during the year!
I am adding my ridge money into my challenge money today, cause I want to make a deposit to my savings on Friday.
Prev. total $25,890.00
today 330.00
new total $26,220.00

    Yes, thanks Ima, it's time to wrap presents today, mail off our grand-children's checks and deliver to our church's shut-ins! Here's hoping you and your hard-working man have a lovely Christmas!!

    It's great that you give the waitresses an extra holiday tip! I know you guys love to eat out, and surely those women are almost like extended family.

    Merry Christmas!

    I am just enjoying the calm on the personal front, watch the whole world go mad for another week. What a racket!

    I love this time of year! I've tried to give thoughtful gifts, not expensive ones. Its about sharing and giving, not receiving. It sounds like you're doing something really nice for your waitresses! Enjoy the holidays!
