I make damn sure when I take my wife shopping their is a pub near by. Too much shopping and she drives home.
My wife don't drive any more.
We only go places together.
I get just as many picks of where to shop as she does.
Her memory is a lot shorter now & I can cheat.
If I pick to many places to shop.
She will sit in the car.
I do shop much faster than she does so it is not terribly cruel.
We have no toddlers to shop for but she still looks.
Children today are more grown up now & want different things than what our children got at those ages.
I push money gifts. I think it goes over with the kids better.
It also can be less costly & trouble free.
While it has a better reception that some gifts.

When I was young Christmas was great.
But the day came for me to be Santa.
It became more of bah hum bug.
The best I can do is:
So Merry Christmas to the Christians among us.
With a Happy Holiday for every one else.
It is just another day in our lifes.
But one that brings the best of family & friends together.
So I hope you find under your tree a pleasant surprise.
But I will not be playing Santa to you.
All I have is a bah hum bug for you.

I can't help it.
I am just an old white male that has become an old grump.
I thought that you would under stand that.
I do have a lot of good things in my life.
Being here on this site with some one like you brightens my day.
May the warmth of the sun bring a smile to your face.
At this time of year you ma6y have to get out or the wind to do that.
That is all the good cheer I can pass along today.
