HOORAY -- in spite of my slow, cantankerous internet -- I have managed to order two items for dgs's bday in June. Wanted to get part of his present on this credit card and part on next.
I have ordered him a Thomas train set that he apparently fell in love with at Wmart not long ago, and a solar system light to go on his ceiling -- which will probably look cheap & tacky compared to the lovely illustrations, but he also saw one of these in a museum gift shop, and was quite taken with it, too. DS decided they could probably do better than the $40-$50 price the museum was asking, so yes -- Nana & T*ysRUs to the rescue!
I'll buy him some clothes to finish out the gift giving.
Also got part of dmom's Mother's day gift ordered last night... a bangle bracelet w/a charm with the grands' pictures on it. (Sh&tterfly) Ordered prints too, so I'll have new pics for her, and I may get nice frames for them.
Now... a wedding shower gift for next Sunday, and ??? for dniece's college graduation May 6. She wants $$$ -- but I want something to "open." Even though we won't see her open it. We'll miss graduation, and immediately afterwards, she is leaving for a 2-3 week trip to Europe (with a school group). So we want her to have the $$$ before she goes.
Spring is so expensive...
