MrStrype,
You were looking for ideas for hand made personalized gifts. Check out post #3358358 on the previous page and the attached link for what we did last year when we had no money.
Best wishes to you.

OK mvg......I see where you've been thinking (and the accompanying warnings <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />) on some of your recent posts, so now I'm curious. What's your idea? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Can you at last share PART of it on a world-wild forum ~~~> (Oooops, a typo I think I'll leave intact)!!! Does it lessen the $ucking effect of affairs? Is it related to the holiday$? Ace

It doesn't lessen the $ucking effect but is holiday related...H loves hunting. I was thinking of making a collage of his hunting & fishing pics over the years. I might not have enough time for xmas now, BUT his birthday is coming up.
NOT an out of the world present but he might like it.

I like your idea, mvg. I think I'll create a movie/maker compilation of DH's sports events/pictures/awards. He just got a champion's ring from our last world series. Those things never seemed to mean much to him, but NOW they do.
You're right, it will take time, but should not be that $ucky on the bank account.
Any other idea$? I have one more but I'll post it later.

My last idea (for the day at least):
To keep the Affair from $ucking too much during the holidays, make an effort to give the gift of the T's (as mentioned in my box/poem idea).
Time and Thoughts are the gifts of the T's.
All it cost are moments and efforts.
It will mean something now (and later via memories) to the recipient and will be an example for your children of what is really valuable.

Merry Chri$tmas and may your holidays not suck the joy out of the season if you remember the real reason for those 'holy-days'.....every day of the new year.
