That's 42 people, if I counted right. I really don't include many extras, just my family (which unfortunately consists of many children), godparents of my children, a few friends, a few of the girls friends, teachers, . . okay well maybe I lied about the extras. Anyway, that's just the way it is. I don't want to leave anyone out, right? Right. And I can't lie, I love to receive gifts just as much (if not more ;^) than I like to give them. Mentally, I never made it past age 7. Sometimes I order the girls things . . um, I mean Santa does, that I want to play with. Who cares if they'll enjoy it?
So, the malls love me, the credit card companies love me, but my checking account is not pretty.

Hey, I didn't see my name on the list. What gives?
:)
Maybe you were Santa in a previous life?
Holy shit, that's a long list! I don't know how you do it.
lol. that is a loooooong list. i love shopping for gifts for family and friends, but not as much as i love receiving them!
ops. btw, the above comment by anonymous is actually by me ;)forgot to log in to blogger!
Yeah, my name's not on the list either!!! ;)
WOW! That is one heck of a list! I just started stressing out about my list this past weekend and it consists of only about 15 people...I'd probably have a stress anxiety attack if I had list like yours!!
I love your list! My name's on it! Hehehehehe....I have my list on a piece of paper that is laying on my desk. I carry it everywhere with me. Some if it hasn't even been ordered or purchased yet. I need to get on the stick here!
Egads! that list is LONG!
I'd have let the guy go in front of me in line, too. But, then, I'm a pushover, too.
