I have to figure out my FSA #s this week too. That is why I SHOULD have done paperwork tonight, to figure out how close I was on figures this year.
Gifts my family may get this year: donations, gift certificates for non-items (massages, dinners, netflix, shows), gift certifs to half price books, notecards made from E's art, knit things, unique food items.
Cool frames and pictures of the kids would work for parents.
T just came by to show me this quarter's grades: 85-95! Rock!
Need to call her dad next week about TG catsitting and Obama's inaugural. She and I squeed over the Obamas moving into the WH. About the girls, she was all "they're so little! People have to be nice to them!" And she's an august, what? 13?

Heh-- best quote about last night's Country Music Association Awards:
Even unlikelier first-time CMA performers: Jamaica’s Wailers, who joined Chesney for a medley. “It’s a great pleasure being here -- more than tongue can tell," said Wailers singer Elan Atias. “Country and reggae are very similar.” (From the aroma that preceded them by about 20 feet, the similarity to Willie Nelson was certainly apparent.)

Ahh... boys. Mine's at a point where he thinks ripping them so hard that it threatens to strip the varnish from the chairs is highly amusing. He's even taken to lifting one cheek slightly so there can be more reverb.
