I don't think I have enough money for my list of Christmas presents.

I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
The list is like $800... damn kids.

Just because they're asking for stuff, it doesn't mean you have to buy it for them. My nephews ask for outrageous shit all the time. I'm always telling my brother that I hope he and his ex-wife get the boys everything they've asked for, because they're getting a check from me. If they don't like it, then I'm sure there's driveways that need to be shoveled in southern mainland NY this winter.

I hear ya. It's not what they are asking for, it's what I wanted to do, but there are so many of them! Well not THAT many but it adds up really quick.
If you don't mind me asking, what do you give nieces and nephews? I was targeting $40 each, but more for the kids I watch (plus a gift for their parents), plus mom... I might have to cut it back, idk.

Now granted, I only have 2 nephews to worry about, but I usually give them $50 either by check, or in a gift card they're asking for. So between the 2, I'm only spending $100. It sounds like you've got a few more than me, so if I was in your shoes, I might cut it down to $25 to try to be fair and not go into massive debt.
As for the rest of my family, my Mom gets hooked up every year. There's really no limit and she makes off like a thief every year because everybody feels the same as I do about taking care of Mom on Christmas. My sister and her husband get $50 gift cards each to particular stores they're into, plus an Itunes card and a gift card to one of their favorite restaurants. My brother gets a $50 gift card, and that's about it. He won't let me spend any more than that on him. He tells me to give it to the kids or just take care of myself. If I ever spend more, he sends it back to me.
My sister has two dogs that she spoils rotten, so on occasion I might pick up a couple of toys for them or a big ass box of milkbones.
That's my Christmas spending.

Very nice and very generous of you. I have Mom, one sis/bro-in-law I buy for (the rest of the adults don't exchange gifts), and 11 kids. Plus the adults bought a needy family gifts, plus my charitable donations. I haven't even added charities to the total yet - that will probably have to wait until after the new year.

I'm going to bed.

I still feel like shit
Have a drink on me!
If I were old I could drill a fart into this chair and no one would think I was a disgusting bastard
My party dress arrived today, I may just have to invest in some tape to prevent an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction.
