Needing Buffalo Mugs for a Birthday Present
Comments (8)I didn't know they still made Buffalo china. I have quite a bit of it, because I collect old restaurant dishes. I don't have very many mugs tho, because I don't drink hot drinks. I got an old restaurant mug last week....white with blue lines on it, but I don't know if it is Buffalo....See MoreChristmas Birthdays, do you get double presents?
Comments (32)I hadn't been back to this post, and wanted to thank you for your kind thoughts with my GD#1. I am the luckiest grandma ever and get to spend as much time as I possibly can with my other grandkids. I adore them and now realize that my life would not have been complete without them. For those that asked, My sons girlfriend, is the one that was killed in the auto accident. They never married. She lived for a while after the accident, but died in November 2002. She had just turned 20. My GD turned 1 the following Christmas Day 2002. She is 6 months older than GD#2 and 3 years older than GS#1. We have asked for pictures and was sent some 4 years ago. She looks just like the girl version of my son. I continue to email and ask for pictures, but non have come. My youngest has sent letters. There will be a day when we are all united, and I am planning well for the day. She will know that she was loved and thought of often. My house is laden with the pictures I do have of her. Her gifts and ornaments wait paiently for her, and so do we. Trin...See MoreDo You Buy Yourselves Birthday Presents? Any Old Day Presents?
Comments (44)KSWL, Yes, so you know the Wall Street mentality. It is understandable though when 95% of your pay is "bonus" and usually the bonuses are pretty subjective at the individual level. In any given year they can be zero or a heck of a lot. Yes, it keeps you tethered (as does the form of the payout, a good bit of it stock). SueB, What serendipity! Thats more fun than one more Christmas present, no? Tell 'em to hide some more! Running, DH got me studs for mother's day a few years ago, and it occurs to me they may be (may be?) the one thing that truly never goes out of style! Sounds like you deserve 'em! Outside, Too funny! A shotgun! But sweet that he knew exactly what you wanted. : ) Tina, I love to send and recieve flowers, but I am very particular about quality/design. ONe year at work I received three different bouquets of roses. ONe was from Dad and two were from love interests. That caused a stir, and I never said a word, LOL. I like your reply. I retired a few years ago, for about a year. Then an exboss recruited me to his new firm. I say I work "one day a week" now; i go into our office 1 day, but I also do some work from home. Once in a while I travel. It is perfect for me. I have to say, I do not recommend flat out retirement at all,and I hope to do this forever....See Morebirthday gift for two year old who has a lot of stuff already
Comments (44)if u don't want to go the book route, how about a savings bond?? u pay $25 and in 15-20 (i forget which) years its worth $50., i know its doesn't sound like a lot but we did that for our kids since birth. for my oldest it paid half of her college bill in junior year. had the whole family on board and everyone did it when they were too little realize they really didn't "get" anything.. everyone always got them a little something to go with it, so when they we knew they should get presents, they had something to open.. the amounts go as high as $500 i think. did it for every occasion, it really adds up!!! $500 bond, $1,000 in allotted time plus interest if u hold onto them past the mature date.......See MoreRita / Bring Back Sophie 4 Real
