Hugs to you Mama Mia - I too got nada from two of my four families. No cards - not even a thank you e-mail for the gifts that I put together for their child. =( One Mum gave me a small gift - Olive oil and balsamic vinegar (not really my thing, but the thought was very much appreciated) and my star Mum gave me a gift certificate to a Spa. Very generous gift card ($50) but I'm in a bit of a conundrum because everything on offer at this spa is very expensive - a manicure is 90 dollars. Yikes ! So I don't know if I'll use it or not - I kind of hate to have to spend a lot of money on something that I wouldn't ordinarily spend on, just to "use up" a gift card. She really should have just bought me an ornament for my tree or a box of candy. I totally get (and agree!) that she should not be gifting me 200 dollar gifts, but now what do I do with this darn gift card ?Ah well....keep your kind heart Mama (despite the scrooges out there) and here's hoping that Santa is good to you ! =)
