holidays are wonderful but crazy!
I haven't disappeared- really guys.The holiday time is making me crazy busy! Not to mention job hunting in the midst of all that. Good news is I have pretty much all my shopping done and the presents I do have are wrapped! WOOT! My husband is responsible for his brother, father-in-law and my best friends husband so I'm not sure how that's going. Men. *rolls eyes* Only person I'm not sure about is my own brother. He's so hard to buy for! My mom said warm socks but I dunno. He's from a big city so there's not really anything I can get him that he couldn't get himself. Well, besides the wine I'm getting both him and my sister-in-law because they don't have it back home.
Anyways, I still feel pretty happy that even though we're flat broke, our gifts are pretty decent. I made a whole bunch of them actually. Made necklaces for my sister-in-law, mom and friends daughter. And my husband did some drawings for his mom and aunt. They will prolly like them more than anything we could have bought anyway.
Right now I'm trying to decide if I'm supposed to get a gift for a friend who hasn't spoke to me in over a year and randomly text me asking if we could get together over the holidays. This girl was my best friend for my entire life and then we had this huge falling out. She couldn't stop being mad at me for stupid shit I did when I was an idiot teenager. So I finally stopped trying to make things better and let her go. Now all of a sudden she wants to talk. Part of me is so hopeful to repair that relationship, but the other part of me would rather not go down that road. And then there's the whole do I get her a gift? We used to exchange gifts every xmas even if it was small. *grumble* maybe I'll just get her a Starbucks giftcard and if she doesn't bring a gift I can just use the card lmao.
I'm still trying to catch up on all the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
