if not, are you freaking out over the impending doom or the holidays?

i celebrate christmas (kinda) and im almost done with everything. every year i worry that i dont spend enough or get everyone what the want to this time of year is super stressful. i have a good job rn so i can afford gifts but i still have that lingering feeling of "maybe i need to buy ten more things for this person? just to be safe?" maybe im just out of my god damn mind?

right now i only have a couple more people to shop for, but they're also obviously the hardest to shop for. im also gonna make a few handmade things and send out cards to far-away friends, which i havent started at all.

I don't think I'm even half done yet. Super stressed!! And there's a snow storm this weekend so I won't even be able to attempt any more until next week.

Nope, I'm not done yet and I'm kind of stressing about it! I know it will all be okay... but whew, it doesn't seem like it yet.

I am finished, but I always seem to find more presents for people so I'll probably end up buying a couple more things. Surprisingly, I am within my budget this year which makes my wallet happy.

I usually don't celebrate Christmas because we can't afford gifts and I rely on my college holidays welfare to eat special food. I also couldn't afford to do Christmas gifts exchange with my friends this year so yeah, nothing is happening. If the weather is alright, we are going to drive 2 hours away from home to visit some family up north and stay a few days. Better than nothing at all c: As fow now, I don't know anything else ha ha. I bought some cute little chocolate boxes for my neighbour since his wife just passed away and he's a nice man. No one should be alone during the holidays.

I lucked out by being a recluse, and only have like 3 close friends and just my immediate family. Me and my friends aren't the gift giving kind so all I have to do is get 2 gifts for my parents...but still haven't done it....

Finished, wrapped and mailed. Just to to grab one more thing for my partner and pressies for the pets and our security guards. 8D

I have a few more things to get and then I will be done.

Things like this remind me not to be too sad I don't celebrate Christmas. Though as a kid I was always jealous! I just do a secret santa with my friends. Which I still haven't sorted out... oops. Some people are impossible to shop for x_x I'm easy. I'd do cartwheels for a new lipstick.

I'm done aside from my fiance. My mom stole my only idea for him so... that was cool

I just started yesterday and am waiting to get paid before I do more. Trying not to think about it too much! I'm never this late, I usually do most of it on Cyber Monday, but this year money is tight, I've been glum about the state of the universe, and it's kind of hard to think about. sigh.

My husband, roommate, and I don't celebrate christmas, at least not together (roommate does with her family). But last year I doodled a "heathen tree" and gift wrapped a potato. This year I guess my husband wants to get me something, and I do tend to pick something up for my roommate (she's my bff), even if it's just a potato. lol. My husband wants me to pick up something for my parents and send them something this year, but the only thing I ever buy my folks are candles but candles are expensive to ship so I don't know.

I still have a few more people to shop for and I'm completely stuck on what to get either of them. I'm wanting to get some different presents than what I usually get, but that hasn't been working out as of late.

I'm done! c: I only buy gifts for my mom, grandma, grandpa and best friend, usually. I buy a gift for my boyfriend if I happen to find something awesome, but we both hate useless clutter so buying for the sake of buying would be stupid.

Not quite. If I am being honest, I haven't even started. .__.

KID I GOTTA BUY THINGS FOR EVERYONE (including myself ;) ) AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START...

I haven't even started and honestly I don't know where to start. I feel like it's too late to order online and holiday crowds freak me right out.

I pretty much need to still get presents for my dad and brother. My dad is the basic (boring) kind of guy and my brother wants all these expensive electronics (that I will not buy and will not get him to feed his computer habit). Tough situation. I only give gifts to my immediate family, a little something for my close co-workers, boss, and maybe a friend if I will be meeting up with them around the holidays. I am already tired and stressed out. I think next year the gift giving is going to be cut back within the family, as my parents said it is small this year and there are more important things to spend money on. We are not doing stockings this year for the first time. The holidays are just not enjoyable anymore.

Mostly done. I started online shopping on Black Friday so that's all done. I want to get one more thing for my dad and some little things for my kids stockings and that's it. They're going to be with their dad this Christmas through New Years, so we're waiting to celebrate until they get back. So I still have time.

Kinda! Irl anyway, my subeta gifting is in progress lol. I need like one more smallish thing for my sister but I already know what it's gonna be, I just need to go get it. Oh, and pick up a gift card for my work gift exchange (how boring right? But it's what she asked for)
