Guys ~ Thanks for your ideas and replies. I finally got the guts up to tell hubby that I need his check this week for shopping for gifts. I explained to him in a way he could relate . That he knows if his mom didnt get a gift she would throw a tantrum. I told him that I will not deal with it. That he will. AND he knows that is not an easy task to take on. He's given in and said ok. I even get his help this year! He is going to go with me tomorrow night if the weather is ok! I am especially happy about this since he will be able to see how hard it is to shop for people! But it makes me so happy to be able to do this! YAY!Hahahahaa I even feel like I could do this now! hehehee!!!!!!!
