This holiday season has been the first year when there is absolutely nothing that I really want for Christmas. My family has asked me countless times what it is that I’d like to have for Christmas, but I can’t come up with a thing! I guess if I had to choose something, although I don’t REALLY need or desperately want anything, it would be from the following list. On second thought, maybe there are a few things I’d like! LOL

In most cases, our mother is the most special woman in our lives. She’s been there for us through thick and thin. That’s why there’s no monetary limit when shopping for her holiday gifts. Well, ok maybe I’m pushing it, but the love I have for my mom is unlimited! Make your mom’s holiday wishes come true with gifts that she’ll enjoy; but I’m sure she’d be just as thrilled with a hug and a kiss!

Every BG has a special guy in her life, whether it’s her father, husband, brother, nephew or boyfriend. This year get him something that he’ll appreciate. For me, shopping for men is very difficult because they tend to enjoy more expensive things like electronic gadgets and gizmos, which don’t always fit into my budget – especially this year! So with tight finances and picky guys, I’m going to have to do some savvy shopping to keep them smiling.
