See, that's the problem. If I don't send anything, then they'll call and ask if the package was sent/lost. When I tell them I didn't send them anything, then they call again and ONLY want to talk to Bill. Then he gets the guilt trip and we send something. The ONLY one who appreciates anything I send is his mom. She's a fan of what I make. I made her a quilt one year....she went out and when she came back, I was wrapped up in it. She quickly told me that was NOW HERS and I couldn't take it back. lol So, I know she appreciates it. The rest of them? Nope, they are just into what the price tag says. This way, I'm only out a few dollars. So, at least I am sending something, right?

Oh, and not to mention.....ONLY his mom and dad send us gifts. We don't get so much as a card from the rest of them, but, God forbid if we don't send something.

Maybe they WON'T get them and I'll give them to someone else.

Bill can deal with the repercussions later. They are already mad that we aren't going to visit for Christmas.
