However if it comes to something I don't like, I can ship it to one of my sisters.

I usually buy what I want for myself. :)Beverly Stowe McClurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176195451841801819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1311335624850028436.post-44806631864464091932010-12-17T09:19:33.215-08:002010-12-17T09:19:33.215-08:00Great advice!!

She sent a huge box of candied pecans, and my hubby is not allowed to eat nuts, as he has diverticulitis! Plus, I dare not binge on them, as they are calorie-laden like crazy. His aunt knows about her nephew's condition, but she spaced it out. We are thinking of re-gifting it to our favorite guy at my car lot. *Heheheheheh*Catherine Stinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08131569196977321229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1311335624850028436.post-80752868514604533562010-12-17T05:40:52.880-08:002010-12-17T05:40:52.880-08:00Ha!

But there were times when they were younger when their face showed that we didn't quite get them what they expected, lol!LM Prestonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624508396760965680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1311335624850028436.post-21161540233230764972010-12-17T04:43:53.170-08:002010-12-17T04:43:53.170-08:00I agree with Kelly.

It's more important to me to have my hubby and dogs with me, and friends that visit throughout the day.Maria Zanninihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01604862636922299273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1311335624850028436.post-11951660701795777622010-12-17T04:01:32.633-08:002010-12-17T04:01:32.633-08:00Honestly, I love giving presents.

My husband always says I'm an awesome gift giver because I put a lot of thought into what would make the receiver happy. I think that's why I don't really get disappointed when I don't get what I want. I know the gifter put thought into my present no matter what it is, and that's the most important thing.Kelly Hashwayhttp://www.kellyhashway.comnoreply@blogger.com
