I'm almost done with my holiday shopping and within by "smaller by far than last year" budget so far!

I didn't get too much stuff, SD10 provided a nice little list so I got two things off of that for her, my sister is getting her another and it's up to DH to do the rest. I'm going to add those to his Amazon account list and walk away.

SD12's bday gift is done and I still need to get her Xmas gifts, but that'll be done by DH because I ended up getting a bunch of stocking stuffers on behalf of DH for SDs instead.

I can see him "checking out" whenever holiday stuff is mentioned. The SDs want to talk about what they want (and they were really good at creating lists that are not greedy or too long) and DH just sort of wandered away while they were talking with us about it...I'm like, WTH? SD12 looked hurt. I just told her, "I'll help you, don't worry." And going to add her stuff to DH's Amazon list too. And gong to be done with all that.

Plus I found out our washing machine also needs to be replaced as it's been leaking underneath for what looks like months now. Goody. A new washer and dryer for the holiday season.
(sarcasm because we don't want to spend the $ now, BUT there will likely be some good sales)

Now I get to bake.
